Which one makes more money: free iOS app or free iPhone app?

Aren't both offered through the itunes store? What's the difference?

 

[Math10]

I don't know.

What is your real question? iPhone app is iOS. Also how can you earn money if it's free? Are you thinking in-app purchasing?

 

[Math10]

Yes, I'm thinking in-app purchasing. I thinking about making a free game app.

So after making a free game app, do I go to the Apple Store to submit it?

You need a developer account

Create the app information in itunes connect via your developer account then upload the app via Apple Application Loader. Then wait 5 days for it to be reviewed.

And then? How do I get my income?

Just read what is there. Apple (and Google) document pretty much every single comma of monetization, we are not lawyers. You wanted to make a free app, now you need micro-transactions, phishing (I did not type that), ads or something else to get money from it.

I would buy an iOS app development book because it appears you need comprehensive information

btw, I don't think you're a dummy :)

Suggesting "* for Dummies" never sounds right. A friend almost got fired because of this.

Should I learn Objective-C for developing iOS game app?

 

[mafagafo]

It seems by far the most common choice. Although I really think that there are alternatives, coding for iOS or Android is not completely language agnostic. You need to pick one that has a big enough user base and that is well supported. It basically narrows down to C# (MS), Java (Google) and O-C (Apple).

That's the sort of company that makes a bad employer. He might want to think about moving up in the world.
