Recently I have become interested in developing apps for the iPhone. I am about to finish my first app called “LLowGuide”, which is supposed to be a guide for a Dutch music festival called Lowlands. Lowlands will take place on the 21st, 22nd and 23rd of august 2009. As of the moment of writing, I submitted a very early version of the app into the iPhone’s App Store. But it has been in review for 8 days now, with no indication of when the review will be finished. I am starting to doubt whether I am able to release the final version before the festival starts. But in any case, it was a great iPhone programming exercise.
While developing I gathered some good practices, which could be applied in other apps as well. I want to share with you a few practices which I found particularly useful while developing the app. I hope that this way you get excited about iPhone programming (if you weren’t already) and get motivated to write your own app (if you didn’t already).
