As a 13 year old, I put my first application on the store in October 2009, and all it does is play those mosquito ringtone sounds, and I still make ~$300-400 a month. It always manages to maintain the top 50 Entertainment in some random country.
EDIT: Top 50 Entertainment for iPad, Top 100 for Entertainment for iPhone. I would recommend making your app universal, even if it is just to make the app fill the screen. There is a much smaller pool of silly apps for iPad ;)

- 5teev 15y agoI'm pleased, too: my app is destined to be immortal!
- conradev 15y agoI didn't know this. Hrmm. Where do you find data on that sort of thing?

- cantbecool 15y agoYou play the whole young programmer angle often. Good luck with future development, though. http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/stealth-tones/id334666404?mt=8 http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/stealth-tones/id334666404?mt=...
