FREE INDIE APP REVENUE WORKSHEET

Turn this week’s sales into a clearer next move.

A useful revenue review is more than a number at the top of a dashboard. Record sales and refunds by source, note what changed, then leave with one question to investigate next week. This small worksheet runs in your browser; it does not connect to or upload your accounts.

Use the result as a working note

This free Revenue Bear-related tool is designed to make one small task easier to start. It runs in this page, without an account or server-side submission. The generated text is a prompt for your own judgment—not professional, financial, legal, medical or platform advice.

Start with comparable periods

Choose a consistent weekly window and write down which date convention you used. App Store Connect, payment processors and direct-sales platforms can define dates and proceeds differently. A stable review habit matters more than forcing unlike numbers into a single precise-looking total.

Keep sales, refunds and payouts distinct

Sales activity, refunds, fees and cash payouts are not interchangeable. Keep the source next to each figure and record refunds separately instead of silently subtracting them from a number with a different basis. When you need accounting records, use the statements and exports from the provider.

Write down each source’s definition

A total is only useful when you can explain what it includes. Note whether a figure means customer spend, developer proceeds, net receipts or a payout received, and keep the currency beside it. If a provider revises a report or uses a different reporting window, record that change rather than comparing it as if nothing changed.

Treat small weekly changes as clues, not proof

For a small portfolio, one purchase or refund can move a weekly percentage sharply. Compare the underlying counts as well as the percentage, and look for patterns across several consistent periods before changing pricing or abandoning a channel. The review is a decision aid, not a forecasting model.

Turn the review into one experiment

Finish with a question you can answer next week: did a particular product page change help, did a channel go quiet, or did a refund cluster appear? Revenue Bear brings supported sources into one iPhone view; this worksheet is a lightweight way to make the weekly review repeatable.

Keep the next step small

Save the output for your own reference, verify details against the real product and source records, and decide whether a dedicated app would make the recurring workflow easier. You can explore Revenue Bear below and check the current product details before downloading or purchasing.

Frequently asked questions

Does this connect to App Store Connect or Polar?

No. This free worksheet runs locally in your browser and only uses the information you type into it. Revenue Bear is the related iPhone app for reviewing supported sales sources.

Can I use the output for bookkeeping?

Treat it as a review note only. Verify source statements, currencies, fees and payout definitions with your accounting records or a qualified professional.

What is a good weekly app revenue review?

A repeatable review records the same period, separates sales from refunds and payouts, notes what changed, and identifies one follow-up question.
