Summary:
At the start of 2026, a new app with a morbid name—Are You Dead?—became the most downloaded paid app in China, a country where loneliness and isolation has become increasingly pervasive. The indie app, made by three Gen-Z developers, has users check in by tapping a button once a day. If someone misses consecutive check-ins, the app automatically alerts a designated emergency contact. This case analyses the how businesses can pinpoint market opportunity and adapt to meet changing consumer habits.
