How to become a famous app developer in BitLife

There are all kinds of app developers out there in the world, from those who make health and wellness apps to others who make games for phones and tablets. BitLife simplifies it into a job that, although it starts with a low salary, can easily turn you into a millionaire.

How to become an app developer in BitLife

Here's a complete step-by-step guide to becoming an app developer in BitLife:

  1. Age up until your character graduates from high school.
  2. Apply for a four-year computer science degree in university.
  3. Head into Occupation and Jobs. Scroll down until you find App Tester or Jr. App Developer.
  4. Apply for either role and pass the interview to become an app developer.

As a bonus, creating a character with high smarts stats will make it easier to land university scholarships later on in your playthrough. Similarly, you can commit crimes in-game if one of BitLife's challenges requires it, but getting caught will cause future employers to deny you unless you emigrate to another country. Your best bet is to avoid crime altogether.

Once your character graduates from secondary school, head into Occupation, Education, and University. Look for computer science in the program list. If it doesn't appear, age up and recheck the list or close and reopen your BitLife app to refresh its results. You'll likely get a scholarship that covers your tuition, but you can also pay it off later using student loans or ask your family to help out.

From here, head into the jobs menu and scroll through until you spot either App Tester or Jr. App Developer. Like before, you can age up or close and reopen BitLife to refresh the list. Once you find one of these roles, apply for the position and pass the interview to become an app developer.

How to become a famous app developer in BitLife

There are two ways to become a famous app developer once you initially land the job:

  1. Purchase the Hollywood Star to become famous instantly.
  2. Work hard every year and increase your weekly hours.

The easiest way to become a famous app developer is to buy the Hollywood Star from BitLife's in-game marketplace. This item automatically turns you famous within the first year or two of landing the job.

If you prefer a free-to-play route, select your job in the Occupation menu to find an Hours and Work Harder option. The Hours menu lets you work more per week, while working harder gives you a boost in performance. Setting your hours to around 60 per week, working hard per year, and aging up will eventually lead to you becoming famous.
