Sebastopol, CA—How can you make your iPad or iPhone app stand out in the highly competitive App Store? While most books simply explore the technical aspects of iPad and iPhone app design and development, App Savvy (O'Reilly, $29.99 USD) also focuses on the business, product, and marketing elements critical to pursuing, completing, and selling your app—the ingredients for turning a great idea into a genuinely successful product.

Author Ken Yarmosh details a proven process for developing successful apps, and presents numerous interviews with the App Store's most prominent publishers.

Whether you're a designer, developer, entrepreneur, or just someone with a unique idea, App Savvy explains every step in the process, with guidelines for planning a solid concept, engaging customers early and often, developing your app, and launching it with a bang.
