FINALLY ,My First APP is now available on the AppStore!!

I'm a new iPhone/iPad developer. I've been studying for that for about three months, and i've finally achieved my goal which is seeing my name on the appStore.


During these three months of hard working, i learned objective-C which is the language used for programming, and i learned everything related to iPhone/iPad development.
Last week, i had a 3 hrs break at uni. So i created a simple application and i called it "The Love Meter HD".
We all know the classic love meter that displays on some TV channels. Well, this is a similar one.
All you have to do is to enter your name and your lover's name, and click on the "calculate" button.
The result will be displayed in percentage.

It's really simple, and i thought of making it look better. So i worked a little bit on the design of the layout. And then i decided to upload it and see if it will be approved.
After 5 days, a received a msg from Apple Inc. and my app became available on the app store.
Yesterday i got my daily sales report, and i found out that THREE copies of my app were sold :D:D

This is just the beginning and i'll be creating more and more applications in the future.

Uninstall your ANTIVIRUS program!!

As soon as you buy a computer or a laptop, the first thing u think of is to get an antivirus that KILLS and removes every single virus that will threaten your pc's life.
But let me tell you something. I've been using my windows7 for like a year, and hadn't been using any kind of antiVirus programs. My laptop is still as good as new, and not a single virus attacked it.

"POP, virus found"
Didn't you realize that the moment you install your antivirus program you start getting viruses , too many viruses that your STRONG antivirus is handling each and every second. Well, let's be honest. Who is responsible for those viruses? It's either a computer geek , most probably a 'hacker', who achieves success when he is able to create a virus and OOps it's spread all over the world. Or it is those antivirus companies that work day and night to ensure that there are still viruses all of the internet, so they can sell as much softwares as they can.

But let me enlighten you a little bit. You install an antivirus, it "scans" your computer for viruses and find tens of viruses that were in your pc for all of this time! But the funny part is that most of the time these tens of viruses didn't affect your pc in any way.

Antivirus programs are a heavy weight, they make your pc tooooo slow that you can't use it for it's basic functions.
Oh , but even antivirus programs can't remove all different kind of viruses!!

I advice you to go and Uninstall whatever antivirus software you've installed on your pc.
Well, if i didn't get any virus for all this long duration, then that doesn't mean that you are not going to get one.
So here's the solution:
A virus is not called a virus until it harms or affects you computer in a way.
So let's say that you are affected with a virus when you see a critical issue in your computer.
What you have to do then is googling your problem and you'll find thousands of ready, easy, and simple solutions for you problem.

Enjoy!
