2026: 10 apps on 4 app stores in 26 languages

In 2026, could I publish 10 apps to 4 app stores and manage all the security and features to build a profitable small business? At least 5 of the apps are paid. Translate all the screens into 26 languages.

Why? Given this is 40 versions of production apps, it will push the limits of what a solo entrepreneur can manage given the superpowers now enabled by AI tools such as Antigravity and Claude Code.

The 4 app stores I will publish is on iOS App Store, Mac App Store, Windows Store and Google PlayStore

Jan 2nd, 2026 – Published my first app on Windows.

Here are my learnings

  • Publishing to the Windows App Store is faster and easier than Google Playstore and App App store – I think it’s because Microsoft is hungry to have more apps
  • There is a gap in really polished apps for Windows given there are more Windows users, but less delightful apps
  • I have never used Azure before so I signed up to get Windows Pro VM – the UI to create a VM and get all my subscription enabled was so frustrating (after 1 hour) that I just use the ‘az’ cli using claude code to spin up an instance in 5 minutes. UI for certain cloud providers are so hard, no wonder their CEO thinks AI will and should be using the UI for us
  • On my Mac I can use the Windows App to login remotely on Azure cloud to login to my Windows VM. I think this is better than having Windows VM locally
