MenuOther than appdata.com, where can I find download & revenue numbers of successful iOS apps?
I am looking for an online resource (paid/non paid) that can provide me with intelligence on specific iOS app download numbers over X period and revenue over X period.
Answers
I believe Appannie.com is what you are looking for.
A number of app developers have shared a few of their experiences, metrics and numbers on Quora, so that would be my first suggestion. Denys Zhadanov and his impressive team at Readdle also publish stories on their company blog highlighting metrics that might be very useful considering their apps are almost always in the top 100.
Beyond that, I'd also suggest having a look at App Annie, which offers a continuously growing source of indexed app store / marketplace data for all apps. They also have a number of paid products and content depending on your need for competitive intelligence and insights on your own apps.
Their's no trusted source for knowing how many downloads a specific app has gotten only if the developers of the app publish some numbers.
However www.xyologic.com presents the number of downloads for a wide variety of ios apps in different categories but I'm not sure about its reliability.

Any opinions on raising money on Indiegogo for an app?
Apps are difficult to fund on IndieGoGo as few are successful, and we rarely take them on as clients. Websites like http://appsfunder.com/ are made for that very reason, but again, difficult to build enough of a following willing to pay top dollar for an app that could very well be free, already existing in the marketplace. A site that is gaining more traction you may want to look into would be http://appsplit.com/. Again, Appsplit Is Crowdfunding For Apps specifically.RM

What is the generally agreed upon "good" DAU/MAU for mobile apps?
You are right that the range is wide. You need to figure what are good values to have for your category. Also, you can focus on the trend (is your DAU/MAU increasing vs decreasing after you make changes) even if benchmarking is tough. Unless your app is adding a huge number of users every day (which can skew DAU/MAU), you can trust the ratio as a good indication of how engaged your users are. For games, DAU/MAU of ~20-30% is considered to be pretty good. For social apps, like a messenger app, a successful one would have a DAU/MAU closer to 50%. In general most apps struggle to get to DAU/MAU of 20% or more. Make sure you have the right definition of who is an active user for your app, and get a good sense of what % of users are actually using your app every day. Happy to discuss what is a good benchmark for your specific app depending on what it does.SG

iOS App: Beta vs Launch Quietly?
I would suggest launching in a foreign app store only (ex: Canada). That will allow you to get more organic users to continue iterating without a big push. I got this idea from Matt Brezina (Founder of Sincerely, previously Xobni) https://clarity.fm/brezina - he's the man when it comes to testing & iterating mobile apps.DM
