Here's an interesting example of where time to market really matters. I've had Memoir since upgrading to iOS7, and I'm pretty happy with it. So it feels like you're late to the party by several months. Bit of a bummer since it sounds like you put a lot of effort in. Conversely, when Memoir came out, they couldn't handle their anticipated scale, but they got their foot in the door. Seems to be a good case for "just shipping it".

That's cool. I use Memoir too, and it's a great app. I think you'll find that Heyday does things a little differently and is good for other use cases, like traveling or keeping a journal.

  I see Memoir has a fairly rubbish review score on itunes (3.5/5) whereas Heyday looks good (4.5)

There was an article on HN today talking about Dropbox and how at the time when Dropbox was launched there were hundreds of similar solutions. The gist of it was that the "first to market" concept wasn't a roadblock but simply a hurdle that can and has been overcome.
