Help with first app release - TOP 5 THINGS?
My first app will be ready for release in a few days, and I'd like to take advantage of the collective wisdom and experience of fellow developers. Let me preface my questions with a few notes:
1. My app is NOT crapware, copycatware, or any other category of the stink that fills the iTunes app store.
2. I have spent months building, polishing and cleaning the code so it is fast, efficient, and beautiful to look at.
3. I truly believe there is nothing like my app currently available, although there are several categories my app could "live" in.
So, here is my first questions: I've already cleared the hurdle of registering with Apple, all contracts (free and paid) are in effect.
Q: In order to have the most successful release possible, is there anything I should do now, or prior to, submitting the app to iTunes/Apple?
Q: I've read on the forum here that it is possible to "reserve" the name of the app by setting it up in iTunes Connect first. I'm not sure what that means, and I'm not trying to trump the system here... I just want to do it right the first time to give my app the best possible chance to survive the journey from my computer to everyone's iPhone.
Q: Does anyone care to share the list of the Top Five Things You Shouldn't Do when releasing an app?
Q: How about the Top Five Things You SHOULD Do when releasing an app?
Thanks for any and all feedback.
