Great point. This was my thought initially which is why I suggested my friend to try a donation/pay-what-you-want model [1] before even trying to charge money for it outright. This might give an indication of whether the app solves a pain point enough to make people pay for it.

The donation pay what you want model suggests that the developers think the product might not be worth anything. My advice for a business: figure out how much you need to charge to make enough money to run the business and charge well in excess of that. If people pay it, then there's a business. If they won't then there is not. If the developers are unwilling to charge money then it's not a business...which is ok so long as nobody pretends it is one.
