I'm looking to create an app that pushes original content to you: podcasts, videos, written stuff etc. but I'm ignorant to the whole process.

Any reading material, advice or ideas on how to materialize this idea?

Feel free to share your own experiences in creating an app, whether it worked out or not and what you've learned. I just find this sector very appealing.

I actually have two really good app ideas that would make millions

but i have no idea how to program
 
Would like to learn as well. I see app design mags at Barnes and Nobles though. Looks super time-consuming. How much would it be to get a person straight outta college to do something like this for you though?

Johnny keep your idea vague...don't let these thirsty sobs get a crack at your idea.
 
If you're doing this solo you have to know how to code.

If you're in a team you could take a less demanding role like marketing or incorporating.

AppArchitect Lets Anyone Build iOS Apps, No Coding Or Templates Necessary

Easy app creation, outside of the land of Ruby and Python, has become a huge phenomenon in the last year. And the latest company to join the fold,AppArchitect, is launching straight from our Disrupt NY stage.

AppArchitect lets you build custom iPhone and iPad apps using a simple drag-and-drop interface. That’s right — you need zero coding experience to build your own iPhone app. It’s a brand new world.

Once you log in to the AppArchitect system, you’ll be asked whether you want to make an iPad or iPhone app. From there, you head straight into a dashboard complete with a Screens tab, Library tab with default background and picture options, and a Properties tab where you can handle styling. You can drag and drop backgrounds, images, add text, maps, or links.

From there, you can test and review your app before submitting it to the App Store for approval.

According to co-founder Ilya Zatulovskiy, AppArchitect is unique within the competitive landscape because the app gives you the option to do your own thing, without any templates to get in the way. Of course, you can always choose to use a template if you’d like, but people who want to get really creative have the freedom to expand outside of the template format.

In fact, one of the few apps you probably couldn’t build within the platform would be a game. “The platform is fully extendable,” said Zatulovskiy. “Since each plugin is written in Objective C, any feature requirements can be implemented via our SDK.”

The idea for AppArchitect started at the TechCrunch Disrupt Hackathon in 2011, where the first lines of code were written. Since then, the company went through the DreamIt Ventures accelerator and so far raised a total of $325,000 from Actinic Ventures, BHV, DreamIt Ventures and angel investors, with plans to raise another round soon.

The app creation industry has been blowing up lately. Services like Appy Couple and Yapp have been focused on niche use cases, such as weddings or events. On the other side of the spectrum, Kleverbeast is using similar drag and drop tools to build all kinds of personal apps in a snap.

However, AppArchitect is one of the first services to offer web-based tools without any of the limitations of a template-based system. The company has been in a private beta for the past 4 months with over 400 testers using the service, but today it’s open to everyone.

At launch, the AppArchitect service will remain free for the first few months. The business model includes a publishing fee to send the app to the App Store, and potential for subscription services for apps that use push notifications, backend services or analytics.

Professional monthly plans that offer access to everything for a flat monthly fee are also in the works.

For now, AppArchitect is only available for iOS but will expand to Android and other platforms soon.

I'm currently working on my programming skills with an Android App in mind. I hope to start on it close to this  time next year
 
I am not planning to get into apps, but someone here posted about the guy who created regoapps. I read his book, it was pretty inspiring. It's called Lifehacked.
