Q&A with Application Developer

Author: iBlog iPhone // Category:
I had the opportunity to talk to Mark Pascal, a freelance application developer. Although Mr. Pascal is enjoying retirement, he is curretly involved with a team that is developing an applciation that organizes download doucments in folders based on the sender. During our interview I had a chance to learn more about the app industry.

Patricia Dempaire-Caldwell: How long have you created apps?
Mark Pascal: For about 8 months I’ve been developing Smartphone apps but I worked for IBM for about 20 years developing software.

PDC: You own both an iPhone and BlackBerry, which one do you use the most and what phone do you keep in mind when you’re developing?
MP: My phone is the BlackBerry, I just own an iPhone to see how an app would look and work on it. But when I am developing an app I never have a phone in mind. I don’t develop an app for a phone, I just take the best offer.

PDC: Do you work with an app developing company like, Sweb Apps, Palm’s Pre?
MP: I’ve thought about it, but its something I do more as a hobby, let the graduate get a job. I actually have an intern from Rutgers, since we freelance, he is able to network with different companies.

PDC: What kind of apps do you create?
MP: Mostly the applications are for people that need to create and manage information. I usually work with programs like word processors, spreadsheets, emails.

PDC: What is your favorite kind of apps?
MP: Similar to the ones I create. I want an app to help me with my every day life. I use a lot of documents and spreadsheets most of my apps are to benefit the way I can review them as well create them on my phone. I do have a weakness for games and my favorite is WeatherBug, the best think invented (he giggles)

PDC: How does developing an app work?
MP: In my opinion if you are just starting out I would join the Apple iPhone Developer Program and from there it will help you. It is defiantly not something you can do on your own and if you aren’t good at designing or programming, there are plenty of people that are interested in developing apps. 

PDC:What was the most intresting app you thought of?
MP: I really wanted to make an app that had the rules for popular board/card games. Like I play a lot of scrabble and people are always changing the rules, or like the other day my granddaughter tried to tell me your pair queens beat my 3 fives, that app would be just what i needed then.
