"If you are thinking of building an iPhone/iPad app I would set aside one-two weeks just to navigate the certification process, and setting up all the legal stuff that you need to have set-up just to be able to sell games (rather than give them away for free)."
Uhhh seriously?!
I know the certificate/provisioning profile stuff was broken and hard to get right in the beginning. Like 2 years ago. But now you spend 3 minutes in a Wizard and you have setup your certificates and profiles.
- skream 16y agoAs someone who is getting their feet wet in the app store I can attest that this has been a huge headache for me. Getting my app on the app store has actually been harder work than making the app itself!
- cmelbye 16y agoThis popped out at me as well. Especially with recent versions of Xcode, the process is incredibly simple. Run the wizard, download the files it gives you, and then open them. Boom, you're ready to run the app on your device and submit it to the store.
- cubicle67 16y agoYeah, 2 years ago, when I first set this up, it was a hair pulling experience and took me a solid evening to get sorted. Now it's literally a 10 minute job
- ajg1977 16y agoSure, parts of the process are now a lot easier (and Google-able), but getting everything together for the first time would still a bit of an overwhelming process. 1-2 weeks is very extreme though.
