In this video, Marlipiegos reviews the I Am Rich app. In 2008, a developer named Armin Heinrich released an app that cost $999.99, and all it did was display a glowing red gem and a misspelled quote. Some people found it funny, and some people were furious; the app garnered a huge amount of attention online, and Apple received a lot of backlash for allowing it to be on the App Store. The app was taken down after about 24 hours, but the developer made several thousand dollars off the app because 8 people bought it!

In 2008, developer Armen Hinrich released 'I Am Rich' on the App Store — a $999 app that did nothing but display a glowing red gem and a misspelled quote. Despite being roasted by tech media and pulled by Apple after ~24 hours, eight people bought it, netting the developer over $5,000. It became a notorious example of the early App Store's lack of pricing rules and content moderation.

The most RIDICULOUS app 💀
