Hi Yunarel Nice Post! I've been meaning for sometime to try out app development.... Perhaps later in the year... Will keep your points in mind when I do so.... Just to add, I would also try to put the app on as many platforms as possible as that would hopefully expand its reach/audience and if possible set up an affiliate program for the paid version which will help with marketing it to a wider audience....
