iPhone Application Development And iPhone Game Development The Thundering Field

iPhone Application Development and iPhone Game Development is so far the most interesting development in the mobile application development field and has changed the way we have looked and worked with app development and designing. With good user interface and coding prefixes we are at the stage of the beginning of totally new era of programming and designing Apps and Games. If you look at the basic SDK which was release in 2008 and the SDK which we use right now (4.3), it has been dramatically improved. iPhone Application Development and iPhone Game Development has not as same as what we used to deal with last year.

There has been lot of change on the technical point of view for the developers, in iPhone Application Development. One of the major differences now we can see is the speed of the user interface and more systematic approach to the file management and coding methodology. There are many other improvements which apple has done and also not to forget making multitasking available for apps has really given wings to iPhone Application Development. Development of business apps, apps for children, utility apps etc. can be widely covered by the base SDK itself and most of the time there is no need for using any external APIs.

iPhone Game Development on the other hand has also got some new things to play with. As we know iPhone Game Development can not only be done using base SDK, especially for complex game and graphics. We need engines like Coco2D and Unity for better lookout and smooth play. The Good news for all the game development community is Cocos3D has been launched and is getting updated while I am writing this article, it might be in initial stages but we believe it will make much difference compare to developing games in Unity 3D which on the other has is bit costly considering the game development requirements.

As we are near the launch of iOS 5 which is in its 5th beta release, we expect there will be many more things on the platter then what we see right now on Apple's website. iPhone Application Development and iPhone Game Development has changed the way we have programmed, designed and scaled our level of mobile app development and estimated mobile computing future. With iPhone 5 look and feel rumors in air, one can smell the thunder coming right to us, like Apple throwing updates to developers and saying... "Let's see what you can do with that..."

iPhone Application Development Process and How to Hire iPhone App Developer Part - 1


I have been thorough in my previous articles about the iPhone Application Development and its prerequisites.  I will try to provide more information on the development process and also how you can hire iPhone App Developer from a company and also related procedures. As being in Mobile Application Development Company Morpheous, I will share my experience regarding to mentioned subject and hope it will be helpful to you for your future iPhone ideas and to hire any programmer for the same.

Having an App idea and getting it developed is two different things. What you want is to get your App idea to be converted into real app asap and to see what market is going to respond. I would suggest to you to be little bit patient and have some basic info ready with you or you can say more cleared form of features for iPhone Apps Development, before you decide or choose any development company. This will save a lot of time for the company to decide on the time to be spending for the development and also cost for the same. When you reach to any of the development company, you have two choices at the time you want to award a project to the company. One is you by fixed cost model and has a finite timeline and cost for the same and another one is hourly based model where you need to Hire iPhone App Developer and pay on hourly basis for the time spent on the Project.

So, is this safe? Cost effective? And my answer is yes. It is safe to hire iPhone Application Developer remotely and also it is going to be cost effective, which obviously depends on the features of the project or game you want to get developed. Most of the projects come under the fixed cost criteria and does not need to be an hourly project due to guessable amount of time need to be spent on the project. But not all requirements are like that, some of the requirements or ideas needs R&D and cannot be put under finite hours, this also includes when you are not sure what other features might arise at the time of development and those types of requirements of iPhone App Development comes under hourly model. 

In my next article I will discuss more in to how to hire iPhone App Developer for iPhone Application Development from a company and also what things you need to take care of at the time of payment and also receiving updates.
