The sale includes the source code, keystore, AWS API, and a week's email support, excluding programming tasks. To maintain the app, general upkeep is needed, with optional updates to the Chromium version. The app is being sold due to the owner's loss of passion and the desire to focus on non-software projects. Revenue is generated through advertisements, with expenses tied to the rewards API using AWS and MongoDB, which can be eliminated if the rewards feature is removed. The app's installs are entirely organic, and potential improvements include monetizing search and data, enhancing ad displays, introducing a VPN, crypto wallet, and more privacy features. Rebranding efforts to "Freedom Browser" and UI enhancements include reinstating a bottom toolbar by user demand. The app's rewards API, included in the sale, uses AWS for scalability and monitors user interaction. Users gain points through app usage, with a system designed to prevent abuse by limiting daily points and offering long-term incentives for continued use, yet requiring significant app engagement to earn rewards. Despite minimal updates from November 2020 to February 2022, the app retained a strong market standing, losing only 20k active installs during that time. The app is written primarily in Java, with C++ and Python also used. Revenue fluctuations were influenced by attempts to change monetization strategies, including agreements with search engine companies and integrating plugins like Fillr and SitePlug, impacting revenue based on search traffic and user engagement.
