GOOGLE DAY #2


3 Goals for the day:

-how would we get the jokes for the app?:

This page has several jokes organized in many different categories which makes it easier to find them. This link was useful because I was able to find many funny jokes that I could use for my app.
Also it gave me a new idea for my apps about having categories of all the different jokes and how to organize my app better.
This page has many funny short jokes that could also be really helpfull for my app.
It also made me wonder if I could use other peoples jokes for my app or what the policies would be.

-how do the apps work for the different devices?app for iphone work on ipad/ipod?

In this page the question of "Do iphone apps work on ipod touch",  is answered.It explains hat on the app store they tell you what apps work for iphone and what apps work for iPod also says that only some apps that are for iphone work on ipod.Its simpler for the iphone app work for iPod since the graphics and the screen are basically the same size.
This link was very useful! Here they answer my question about iphone app being compatible also on ipad... here an anonymous submitted his answer to it."Yes - as long as they are compatible with the iOS on the iPad. If the app needs 5.1 on the iPod - you have to be running 5.1 on the iPad as well.

The iPod specific apps will appear in half size on the iPad screen, but can be enlarged by tapping a 2X button that will appear in the corner of the screen. However, the screen image will be pixelated and the resolution will not be all that great as a result.
I put in bold the most important parts that most helped me answer my question.

-learn in how much time would I be able to make this app.

This link was useful because it explains the instructions on how to make an iphone app and for people like that are beginners.It teaches you how make an app from scratch and it gives  you every detail that you should know , what will your app have special? why do you think people will buy it? These are very important questions. I wasn't able to answer my question on this page but I was able to learn many other things and answer questions that I could have had in the future , like the tools that you need to be able to develop an app.
even tough this link didnt answer my question about how much time its takes to develop an app it was very usefull. It explains how you can make an app without haviong to higher a developer.Since hiring a developer can be very exxpensive thiis page recommends to hire an outsourcing developer which are cheaper and experienced apps developer team which can help you build and publish a competitive apps, with no programing or coding knowledge required.
In this page many people posted how much time it took each one of them to develop their first app. It explain what kind of difficulties they had while developing and why it took certain amount of time.After reading many of peoples posts I came to a conclusion that for a begginer like me it would take aproximetly 3-7 months.

-Find a link that will explain me how to get my app accepted my the apple storehttp://www.opentracker.net/blog/getting-your-app-accepted-apple-app-store

This link is very useful. Its perfect for my question. It explains step by step how to get your app accepted in to apple store.

Evidence for what I learned:
After going to many different sites I learned that developing an app isn't that easy , it takes time patience , professional help and money. I learned that most apps for iphone are also compatible for the ipod and the ipad.I also learned ways to develop and app in cheaper ways , like instead of hiring a developer you can higher an outsourcing developer that is cheaper and also know a lot about the topic.I also found many different sites of where I could get the jokes for my app.These sites also made me realize how I could organize my jokes app with different categories and so people could submit their own jokes to the app.
