Many small retailers rely on POS systems but lack technical expertise to diagnose issues when things go wrong. A mobile app could provide step-by-step diagnostics and solutions tailored to common problems. Retailers would pay for faster issue resolution, minimizing downtime. Start with a basic diagnostic tool for popular POS systems, expanding based on user feedback. The biggest risk is low adoption if the app doesn't cover enough POS systems.
