#iminigolf

For the past few months, can't remember the exact date, I have had an app on the iOS app store. It was released just to show what I had learnt in the first few months of learning Objective-C and I wasn't expecting big sales from it.

Since then, it has sold less than 20 copies. This could come down to two reasons.

- People don't want an app like this that they need to pay for. This is obvious, people get given a free scorecard when they go to play. So why should they pay for pretty much the same thing?

- I barely advertised it. If I wanted to make money from it and get people downloading it, I could of gone to minigolf course or even golf courses.

The app has been updated a few times since released and now has features that would make it of some use. But I still think it's the price issue that could be causing a problem with this.

Due to this, iMinigolf has now been made free (may take a while to propagate to all stores). I'm not expecting this to make a different to sales, in fact I imagine they'll stay the same. But being free gives people the option to download it without worrying about paying money for an app they wont use more than once.
