Apps & Extensions

Apps, extensions, bots and plugins come with installs, active users and often recurring revenue — plus code, store listings and developer accounts that each transfer differently. Listings disclose platform, user metrics and their source, monetization, tech stack and whether analytics access is available for review. Store and platform terms govern how the listing moves to a new owner.

Buyer guide

  • Compare active users to lifetime installs; a high install count with few active users tells you retention is weak.
  • Confirm whether the store listing moves by app transfer, account transfer or republishing, and what that does to reviews and rankings.
  • Get access to the full source repository and build instructions, and make sure you can produce a working build.
  • Check third-party dependencies, API keys and paid services the product relies on and whether they can be reassigned.
  • Read recent store reviews and the policy history for warnings or removals.

FAQ

How is an app moved to a new owner?

It depends on the platform. App stores generally support transferring an app between developer accounts, while bots and extensions may move by account or ownership transfer. The Node Passport states the method, and platform terms apply.

Do I receive the source code with an app purchase?

Source code, assets and build instructions should be listed in the transfer scope. If the listing does not include them, ask before you buy, since you will need them to maintain and update the product.
