X thread jokes that profitable apps may be cloned automatically within days
bennash · x · 2026-07-29
A repost of a thread arguing that profitable apps will soon be cloned almost immediately after they get attention—“pixel perfect” and “autonomously,” with no human involvement.
The quoted example says someone found a copycat on the App Store who had replicated every app 1:1, including the UI, in a very short timeframe. The poster uses that anecdote to suggest app cloning may soon become fully automated.
