The root problem here is the single storefront exhibited in each of the major device universes: Apple Store, Microsoft Store, etc...a permanent solution to the problem is simple. Create a series of storefronts that are tiered. You can get almost anything into the dollar store equivalent. And then you have to apply to move into the higher tier, or a focused tier. It should cost money to do so -- which could be paid back out of sales at the new tier. Physical stores have buyers who inspect products, negotiate, and select. App stores need to the same thing. It's been a long time since I've bought anything on an app store. There's just way too much crap to wade through, making it a waste of time.
