My advice would be to use this app as your 'portfolio' for building other people's ideas on a contract basis. ODesk or Guru.com are decent places to start, although here in Chicago Craigslist has a suprising number of iOS contracts.

You will likely find people to partner with that have more niche markets to go after. One of your problems, IMO, is that you're product is very general and therefore has lots of competition. Once you are familiar with a smaller (but not too small) market, you will likely end up with many more ideas for products people will pay money for.

Contracting is underrated in the startup world, IMO. You can spend 6 months out of the year building other people's ideas, and the rest of the time building your own until your own products can support you.
