Smartphone App

Anyone else thought about using a smartphone App as an advertising vehicle?
As an excuse to learn about building Android Apps I produced an App for our holiday cottage - http://goo.gl/Xth0zA
I realised that it would have very limited appeal so I didn't spend any time on marketing it. I concentrated on producing a second App which would have a much wider appeal - A guide the the beaches in the holiday cottage area. This was a much bigger task, and to make it universally available, I had to invest in Apple technology. Its called the Gower Beach Guide and is available from Google Play - https://goo.gl/yTS4fr and/or iTunes http://goo.gl/0hlqCu
The App is free to download and free from any advertising.
Any feedback will be greatly appreciated and I will be glad share my experience with anyone who is interested in App development.

Interesting idea! I gave it a 5* review.

Let us know how it goes!

Ben,
Thank you very much for the review. It helps towards raising the App's profile.

Get started with an Android App using the free MIT Appinventor2 on line software - http://appinventor.mit.edu/explore/
It's going to cost you lots pf money if you want to progress to create an iPhone app - Must have an Apple Mac (£1000) and must register as an developer licence £90 per year.
