They could try introducing some filters you have to pay for. It might be tough surviving the initial backlash due to people expecting them to be free but as long as they keep releasing some free ones they should survive. The other problem is their demographic is a bit younger so might not have that much disposable income but that didn't deter them from releasing glasses that cost >$100. I think parents would be more likely to pay $1.99 for a pack of 5 special filters for their child rather than getting the glasses.

IMO they really need to do a revenue share. Big influencers (think youtube style ad revenue) would make enough to move on to the platform. Smaller users would still get the occasional 5 bucks, enough to keep people interested. Yes they'd get spam, fraud, and all that good stuff. But honestly they need something different to facebook/instagram/whatever that's not some shitty hotdog
