Estimated revenue
A model estimate with a likely range, not a reported figure.
No estimate. Apps outside the grossing charts, and some countries, have no reliable rank-to-revenue curve, so we show nothing rather than a guess.
How this estimate is made
Rank: we take the app's best Top Grossing rank on the latest chart day. Category ranks are converted into an equivalent overall rank, because a #10 in Finance earns far less than a #10 overall.
Curve: that equivalent rank is read off a rank-to-revenue curve anchored on public company revenue and market-data reports for the US iPhone App Store.
Country: the curve is scaled per country (Japan is roughly a third of the US, Türkiye under 1%). Where we have no scale, such as China, there is no estimate.
Range: the likely range widens with country, category and chart depth. It is a plausible span, not a statistical confidence interval.
Not included: ads, payments outside the App Store, and any difference between gross sales and what the developer keeps. Low confidence means indirect data; medium means several independent sources agree.

About this app
Text from the App Store listing.
For iOS 7 and later you should instead look at our new app: TextTV II.
Text-TV viewer with tapable page numbers for iPhone / iPod touch and iPad.
Currently supported channels:
SVT, Sweden
NRK, Norway
YLE, Finland
MTV3, Finland
NOS Netherlands (not tapable page numbers)
MDR, Germany
BR. Germany
Easy navigation:
Drag left, right, up and down for nearby pages. Use "Back" button for previously visited pages. Click page links or tap the page number field at the top to enter page number manually. All sub pages displayed below first page. Use system settings to change start page and other preferences. Supports landscape mode.
Shortcuts:
Five configurable shortcut buttons for channel and page. Reconfigure by holding on the button for 3 seconds.
You can swipe the page number at the top to go to a predefined page. Use settings on your home screen to configure. Default all swipes go to page 100.
Miscellaneous:
Some channels have a time at the top that is not the same as when viewed on a TV. This time reflects the time the page was changed. So you may think you read old news but it is the latest available on internet and the same as on TV.
Please note:
This is only a specialized web browser and relies on publications on the internet. This means that channels may disappear at any time.
Requires OS 6.0 or later.
