    1.is this the only cost to be ios developer

    2.if i have no iphone or ipad how do i test my game.

    3. when u publish a free game on ios do u get any exposure by apple as new game listing how do u market ur games on ios

  • 1 - Its always been $99 a year to register as an apple developer as far as I can remember.
    There are no other apple fees

    2 - You really need to have a device for testing..... the emulator won't do a good enough job for you to fully get the game polished.

  • There aren't any more fixed fees other than the $99/year, but Apple do take a 30% cut of income from apps.

    As for no. 3, if Apple choose to feature your app (can be free or paid), it will appear in the Featured tab on the App Store. Other than this, which is statistically very unlikely, Apple don't do any marketing on your behalf. There are a number of ways to market your app. Some examples include paying for advertisement on a platform like iAds, ChartBoost or RevMob or paying for your app to be on websites/services like Free App A Day.

    You could make a marketing video and put it on YouTube, or even partner up with an existing YouTuber to make a video that would market your app. A colleague of mine did just that after I'd made the app, and it boosted downloads from 10-20 per day to well over 2,000. The effect of this isn't particularly long-lasting, however, but it may get you into the Top apps list, which would help to boost downloads more.

  • You will also need a suitable mac as it is required to build and publish your app.
