Just wondering how hard it is to create an app. I have an idea that I think could be very useful for people. Do apps really make money? Any info would be useful. Thanks
How do you create an app. I have an idea

Thanks for the sarcasm. It was meant to create a discussion. Didn’t know I wasn’t allowed to talk on here. Was looking for guys personal experiences in here.
That's not sarcasm. There's good info in there.

If you build an app for the iPhone that you'll sell through the App Store, the submission/approval process isn't as easy/quick as with an Android app through Google Play.
Did you check the App Store (Apple) and Google Play (Android) to see it someone else is selling a similar app?

I looked into this a year or 2 ago. The whole endeavor is around $20k. This includes the creating process, legal stuff, advertising etc.
I remember your thread, did your app ever come to fruition?
No I never pursued it all that much. I definitely should have.
The idea still hasn't come out yet. I could be raking in the $$$.
Yeah I’m not gonna do it then if it’s that much money. I’ll tell it to ya maybe someone can make a fortune and throw me a bone. Was thinking of an app like waze but with people reporting traffic congestion at stores. Especially now when you don’t want to go out. If you check the app of the local target people can rate the lines and busyness that helps people. Was just an idea don’t think I’ll ever do it.

He created a couple apps, including the most used police scanner app. During the boston bombing, he donated his profits for the weekend to victims of the attack. I want to say something like $18,000.
It would help to have a solid foundation in programming languages such as: Objective-C, Java, C, C++. Having a background in python and VB helps too
Google already kinda does that. Do a search for your local grocery store. There's normally a bar graph that shows the hours of operation/busiest hours.

Google uses locations to track traffic patterns to alert you to congestion while using Google maps.
Design your app. Register it or patent, then license it and collect royalties.

Yup - Apple & Google have all this data for hundreds of millions of users. Most people don't disable location tracking.
