iPhone vs.
Blackberry
In a survey, conducted by JD Power and Associates on business users’ satisfaction with their handsets between

January and June 2009, the iPhone bagged the top spot, outperforming rivals like RIM BlackBerry, LG, and Samsung.

We develop for both iPhone and Blackberry os, but we are a


little partial, here’s why...

AppStore vs. AppWorld


The award winning AppStore leverages business enhancing applications with a smart profit
model. Blackberry’s AppWorld is slowly following Apple’s model, however with under 1000
applications available, and at a much higher price than the apps on the AppStore, the iPhone
standard just takes precedence.

Factors depicting business user satisfaction include ease of operation, physical design and handling, operating

system, features as well as battery functions. On an index score of 1,000, Apple’s iPhone scored an impressive 803,

followed by RIM BlackBerry with a score of 724.

For Your Media


Monetizing
Your App
Selling Your App
In the first year of the App Store’s existence a small development firm explored the
iPhone’s innovative accelerometer. An interactive aquarium app featuring the splashing of
water if touched, several species of swimming fish that could be reversed and made to jump
if tapped was created. In the first year, their app totaled 1 million sales. After Apple’s 30%
marketing fee, these developers made over $700,000 on this tiny, yet innovative gem. If
you have an innovative idea let us develop it, package it, price it, and market it.

Pricing Your App


The pricing of your app is not only integral to its sales success, but its branding as well. We
study app pricing trends to price your app accurately.

In-App Purchasing
In-app purchasing allows you to offer your app for free while selling multiple items within.
This feature is perfect for a Recording Artist selling the individual tracks of an album but
still wanting to provide some free content, like bios or photos to fans.

Updating Your Content


Apps have been called mini websites. Your website content can be updated and
changed and so can your app’s! When hosting with us, changes to your app is
easy. If you have content that needs to be changed more frequently, say weekly or
even daily, we set up live feeds for your content.

Notifying Subscribers of Updated Content


The iphone makes alerting your subscriber even easier. Notification badges pop
up right on your app to let subscribers know of new content or updates. Ease and
efficiency...
