A couple months ago I published my first app on the app store called Phrase Pop.

You can read about why I did it here.

My top 5 iOS pre & post development resources:

Ray Wenderlinch's Blog - There is a huge (growing) list of (easy to follow) tutorials ranging from beginning iOS development to complicated physics based tutorials for games. Calling this a blog is an understatement.

iOS Dev Weekly - A free weekly iOS development newsletter compiled & curated by Dave Verwer. Each newsletter comes with a wealth of information covering topics like News, Tools, Code, Design, Business, Marketing.

App Figures - This is what iTunes Connect should really be like. Fast, well designed, easy to use. It is a great tool for analyzing & visualizing sales & trends of your apps across different countries or even across different products within your app.

Sensor Tower - App Store Optimization (ASO) for mobile apps is like SEO for websites. Since over 60% of users find your application in the app store by search, and Apple allows you a limited set of keywords (100 characters in total), ASO is very important. Sensor Tower has powerful features like search rankings, keyword optimization, keyword spy etc.

App Annie - App Annie provides you easy access to App Store store stats & analytics. Easily lets you track in which countries your app has been ranked & more importantly where it has been featured. It also gives you a daily email summary of total revenue, total downloads and all reviews for your apps.
