iOS8 App Course Testimonials
Riley Simon
Considering the craze that is there over iPhones and iPads worldwide I will be crazy not to learn how to develop apps for iPhone and iPad. I have done the course on Android Application development and have developed quite few Applications and they are gradually gaining traction in the Android Marketplace. So I was lamenting why not I release the same apps for iPhone too? Now iOS8 app is a different platform and coming from Apple its bound to be very different from Android so I was little apprehensive at first when I started the course. My apprehensions were soon squashed as I found out that developing iPhone Apps is not very difficult specially if you have get a training like this one. So yeah have completed the course and planning to introduce the applications in the iTunes App Store.

I run a small online business and way the things have changed now a days and each site is installing an app in the user’s phone for ease of access, it’s becoming tough to compete with competitors without any apps as they are always reminding their users of their existence. I was not much into App Development though I made and run my own Content Management System driven eCommerce business, the importance of adding an App to the website is gradually becoming paramount. So under pressure of competition I decided to take this course up. A friend suggested this site infact for learning it. So learn I did and the trainer has given nice outline to the whole process and have explained it beautifully. So I never had any problems learning it. Presently am making Application for the iPhone which will integrate my services into the Application and am hoping to make it public soon and boost my revenue!
Sarah O’Connor
I am traditionally a web developer but always wanted to shift to apps development as I am seeing many developers are making good money from their Applications. So honestly I felt if I start making Applications it gives me a good side income. If some Application makes it big then well that itself can take care of all expenses and make loads of profit. So well why shy away from Application development? I was lamenting a bit should I go for Android or iOS? Considering the kind of user base I am looking at I felt iOS8 app will be a good option for me to start with. So I started searching for courses online. My cousin was already doing some course here so while I was consulting him he suggested that I take up this course. I thought well and good let’s do it. So I went ahead with the course. The instructor has explained everything very clearly and all topics have been covered in detail. So I was not feeling like an alien while I was learning this. Overall it has been a nice experience and I am really looking forward to build my first iPhone App.

Place where I am from people are just living their lives on Mobile Applications and iPhone is a big hit. I am into systems but looking at the craze I felt it will be nice if I too can create a eye catching Application. Who doesn’t like creating something that can be an instant hit if its good. The money that follows can also be enjoyed. So it did not take me much time in deciding that I will start developing iPhone Apps. So started searching for online tutorials and came across this site. Liked what I saw and became a member. Started the tutorials and then it has been a nice journey. The trainer has explained things very clearly so did not take me much time to complete the course and build my first iPhone Application. The App is doing well now. Am planning to introduced an Android Application too so now need to do that course too!
