Before starting to make iphone app or make ipad app, I would like to give some tips for you:
1) What is your audience? Why you make that app? You make that app for yourself our make that app for a targeted people? You would like to make some informative app or some mini-game app? After all, from marketing point of view, your audience affects the most how you make an app.
2) The software and hardware requirement. You have to join the iphone developer program which costs $99 and download the software development kit (a.k.a SDK). In addition, you should have a Mac machine such as Mac mini to develop your apps. There are some people using virtual machine software on window based PC for development. If you have enough budgets, it is better to buy a Mac. It has to be an intel based processor and run on Leopard version of OS X.
3) Object C programming knowledge. Do we have to be an expert in programing to make a successful app? There may not be a must and we can do it a creative way. For example, we can outsource the programing parts. There are some good outsource networks out there such as Odesk. Yet I suggest you should at least know the basic of the C programming and know the overall concept. Otherwise, you will not manage the project well for sure.
4) The last part and very important part is to promote your app! If we don’t promote the app, it will just few downloads and will not be a cash cow for you. However, making use of suitable ways to promote you app, you will make a good fortune. There is a good tip for you is that you should make this a viral. For example, you may make use of the Facebook and Twitter. Good luck, Buddies!
