iAds for Everyone with iAd Producer

Mike Phillips — Mon, 27 Dec 2010 15:24:00 GMT

Apple, with unusually little fanfare, has released iAd Producer, a self-service development tool for Apple's mobile advertising space. Ad agencies can now create their own ads for use with the iPhone, iPod touch and, soon enough, the iPad. This should significantly speed the process of advertising deployment on these platforms, meaning more money to app developers, faster.

iAd Producer also opens the platform a little bit, something rival Android has used to lure developers away from Apple. Android is growing rapidly, increasing market share by about six points from July to October, 2010, according to comScore. This is alluring to developers, who have had a much easier time getting their applications - and advertisements - published on the open system, compared to Apple's notoriously scrutinized and comparatively closed environment. What remains to be seen with iAd Producer is if the approval process keeps pace with the open submission environment.

AppMakr's AppDrop Arrives - OTA for the Enterprise

Pete Prestipino — Sat, 06 Nov 2010 13:39:00 GMT

Online iOS app building platform AppMakr announced an OTA (over the air) install process that allows enterprises to create private iOS app stores.

The productm dubbed AppDrop, will enable application developers to completely bypas the iTunes AppStore, and distribute the apps on their own.

"AppDrop is the latest feature from AppMakr to make the app creation process dead simple," commented Sean Shadmand, AppMakr's Chief Strategy Officer. He continued, "Users can now test their apps directly on an iOS device without having to sync manually in iTunes with a computer. This relieves a huge headache for even the most advanced developers. App creators can share what they've built with stakeholders before going to the AppStore with as much effort it takes as to send an email, and enterprises can create private app stores for their employees, allowing apps to be downloaded from an intranet or wiki, bypassing the iTunes App Store completely."
