Hello all, does anyone know what residuals someone can expect from creating an app in the google play store?

I am going the android route to create games and apps from a creative standpoint in the google play store, does anyone know on average what someone can expect their returns to be financially?

It all depends on how good your app is, how many people download it, in-app purchases, and so on. A good example is Clash of Clans, it makes approximately $168,000 a day and has about 30,000 downloads a day.

So to answer your question, it varies. :)
