Just a quick update to let you know that we have finally submitted our Liverpool FC iPhone / iPod add to Apple.
There were 2 options as to how I made the app available. Free with advertising or free of advertising and chargeable. Because ‘KopTalk is for grown ups’, I opted for the no ads option with a small annual subscription of £2.99 to cover the loss of advertising revenue, the hosting of the project (we’ll be launching a new site for it) and the ongoing development costs as I hope to add more features such as a chat room.
Once launched we will be working on a version for the Android, then the iPad. We will then review other platforms such as Blackberry.
The app is not on auto-pilot. Every item is added manually, every article and video hand-picked. Those in the industry thought I was nuts because it could run automatically but I prefer the personal touch and believe that people deserve better.
Both non-members and members can use the app. It does not give access to any exclusive content from the members website and you can not access our member forums or free forums via the app.
I will keep you updated as to whether the app is approved or rejected. Some times Apple ask for minor changes.
