I seldom comment but this might be the reason they make that spray air
Shut the monitor off and douse the air openings with a liberal application of air
that gets cold I had a small spider that decided to keep warm inside my ProArt 27 inch
a little air and it decided to depart

We once had a customer that reported sporadic freezes and reboots. There did not seem to be any pattern to them and I was finally sent onsite to diagnose the problem. When I got there, I found a mouse nest inside the computer. One of those plates that cover the unused card slots on the back of the computer was missing and the critter was using that to get in and out. What makes this more amazing is that it was in a medical lab in a hospital!

Wow, mice in a medical lab, who would've thunk it?
Speaking of sporadic freezes and reboots... I once had a customer who printed some 100 invoices at the end of each day.
Ever since we delivered that software they complained that the printer would stop after a couple of prints and they had to reprint about half of the invoices.
Not always though, never during the day and sometimes at the end of the day, but other than that no pattern could be found.
I checked the code, debugged, tested, despite not finding anything made it more fool proof, added additional logging...
Nothing.
I even went over there and everything worked fine during the entire day.
And then a couple of days later I got that call again, not all the invoices were printed.
The logging said the same, only x out of y invoices printed.
So one day my manager was there at around the time of the printing and he decided to just walk in unannounced and uninvited.
He soon found out the problem...
They'd press the print button for 100 invoices and then turned off their computers...
No one there ever thought it could have anything to do with it

One of my coworkers went on site at another lab to diagnose mysterious sporadic reboots and freezes that we had been unable to find the cause of from afar. It turned out that the computer was plugged into a UPS as per our installation recommendations. However they had also plugged a refrigerator into the UPS (after all, they didn't want their samples thawing out during a power outage). Every now and then, when the refrigerator compressor came on, our computer would reboot.
Go figure.

I think it's a new feature. I like it.

I guess you already could from the title feel the suffering behind the screen
I didn't think it will win the 1# most installed app , But , I didn't also think that only 2 users will install it , I nearly posted it everywhere , github , facebook , heckster , amazon app store .
Do you think i should stop wasting time on it and move to another porject ?

Nothing you can do with it at the moment: you don't know how it's going to be taken, or what direction customers think it needs improving. So leave it out there for a moment, and see what feedback you get, if any.
If you don't get any installations or any feedback, you probably need to market it better - getting people to install it is the first step to getting comments. No installs == no feedback == no idea how to improve the product.

Check how you are selling it. Not as in "how much money?" but in how it's marketed, how it looks to a potential user.
Ignore that you know it, look at the page with a "user mind" and forget what you know. What does it do? How does it do it? is this something I want or need? DOes it look professional or amateur?
Getting people to download - even for free - means convincing them it's worth the time; it won;t muck up their system, it will do something they need. And if they don't download, you'll never be told why not!
