In this solo episode, Steve P. Young, Founder of App Masters, breaks down the newest and most effective app monetization strategies working right now and some key insights he presented at AppsFlyer’s MAMA San Francisco 2026.

With competition increasing across the App Store and Google Play, monetization is no longer just about adding a paywall; it’s about designing the right pricing strategy, structuring trials intelligently, and optimizing every step of the user journey.

Steve will share real examples from top-grossing apps and explain how leading subscription apps are increasing revenue without increasing downloads.

This session is perfect for founders, product managers, and growth teams looking to improve conversions and maximize subscriber lifetime value.

You’ll Learn:

✅ How top apps structure paywalls to increase conversions

✅ The smartest way to use trial-to-discount and paid intro offers
