Write iPhone Apps

In order to write iPhone apps, you must have a working knowledge of two programming languages: Cocoa Touch and Objective-C.  A programming language is a system of “grammar” or codes that is used to tell a computer what to do.  If you feel that you have a stupendous iPhone apps idea, but you don’t have the necessary background to do the programming yourself, you could just outline your apps proposal and hire someone to do the technical stuff for you.
1.     Before you could develop your own iPhone apps, you will first need to get certified as an Apple Developer.   Simply go online and register the the Apple iPhone Dev Center.  You will need to pay a yearly fee of $99 for this privilege, but you will be getting access to tools you will require to develop your app, the SDK (the software developer’s kit).  The SDK package will need to be downloaded to your computer.  It will contain the Xcode app, where you will encode your app, and the iPhone simulator which will allos you to test your iPhone app on your computer while it is still being developed.
2.    Develop your apps idea: come up with the texts, graphics and code then load it into the Xcode.  Test out your apps with the simulator and perform the necessary tweaks until your apps work perfectly.
3.    Once you have finished developing your apps, submit it to Apple for approval.  Once your apps have been approved, it will be incorporated in a native iPhone app and included in the inventory of the iTunes App Store, where it could be bought and downloaded to a buyer’s iPhone.

You may need to wait awhile for the Apple people to get back to you after you have submitted your apps for approval.  Also, there is no guarantee that your apps would be accepted and distributed through the iTunes store.  Nevertheless, as long as you come up with a unique and marketable idea for an iPhone app, you stand a better chance to be included.  Often, the Apple evaluators would suggest ways to improve your iPhone apps so that it stands a better chance in the market.
