The Most Expensive iPhone App

If you are using iTune Store, have you notice the most expensive iPhone App? Yes, the most expensive image software named “I Am Rich” cost $1000 ! What is inside? Well, it is just a red diamond a-like icon (will post the real pic at bottom).

I Am Rich App

Why is it so expensive? According to the Application description, the seller claimed:

The red icon on your iPhone or iPod touch always reminds you (and others when you show it to them) that you were able to afford this.

It’s a work of art with no hidden function at all.

After pressing the (i) on the main page, a secret mantra will be shown. This may help you to stay rich, healthy and successful.


It’s ridiculous! The image even not a real diamond, its just a computer generated icon with no function at all! I know this guy has a great idea to earn money from rich man (iPhone and iPod touch owners). But do you think rich man can be easily cheated? Don’t think so.

I don’t know whether the iPhone will get rich after buy the app. But I believe the seller will get rich soon if someone buy from him. ;)

Another question I’m curious is, why Apple approved “I Am Rich” app? I thought Apple have strict rules to publish in App Store? The app looks like a hoax to me.

For further thought, Let’s conduct a poll.

What's your opinion on "I Am Rich" App?

    This is a good idea. But, the design is too simple. If the design look more luxury, it would be better.
