Blockland Android App? Would you buy it? Why or why not! (Also general info)

I was thinking about this a few days ago. Well the server control part anyway.
And maybe make one that has ads for free and one that doesn't for like .99 cents or 1.99 maybe.

I've actually been working at Fedex this summer, and I've gained a TON of experience working with java in eclipse (the main development environment for Android apps.) I'm also thinking about doing the same thing but it'd be for free... Although, I'm only aiming to fit my own needs so I'm sure you can have features that make your App worth buying.

That's mainly the reason why I added the poll. I was curious as to whether people would want to buy something like this, or otherwise I would have set it up for free. So far the poll shows that people would be generous and pay for this app, but I still might make it for free mainly for the reason I don't really want to charge people to use this. But on the other hand, I need some money seeing as my family is in quite a bit of financial trouble at the moment, but I still don't like the idea of charging people for this.

This really wouldn't help with financial problems much... For a paid version you would probably get only around 30-50 downloads.

I'm fully aware of that but at the moment any money helps.
Edit:
Hmmm... Now when I look back on my previous post I probably shouldn't have even brought up my financial problems seeing as they aren't very relevant at all, and it's not a good reason to charge people for this application either. My apologies.
