Crittercism - Gives you real-time, actionable crash reports for mobile apps.
Keeping your mobile app crash and bug free takes time and energy. It's time for a new way to monitor and
manage your apps.
This should be stupid simple. You should be able to look at the performance of your app in real-time, see what
consumers are doing in your app, analyze what they're playing and buying and optimize the app so that they
have a great experience. You should be able to keep your app bug-free and optimized at all times.
This new approach should make everyday things easy, even when those everyday things involve hundreds of
servers, terabytes of data, billions of app loads, millions of devices and integration with dozens of systems.
This approach should be built on collaboration, best practices, knowledge sharing and be made accessible to
every developer, experienced or a newbie.

5. At Crittercism, we have tackled this problem with you in mind. We want to help you make better apps,
improve retention, conversion and monetization. We want you to have powerful insight into how consumers
interact with your mobile applications in real-time. It shouldn't matter which OS you develop your apps for,
we want to make the integration easy and we want you to save time and energy in monitoring and managing
your apps so you can focus on what you do best, making amazing apps and making consumers happy.

BetaBait - Find beta users and testers.
Every day startups run into a major problem before they can publicly launch. They need beta users and
testers.These people play an important role in helping the startup work out bugs, create new features and
even turn into the first customers. However, in the past, founders and marketers have not had an organized
and convenient way to find these testers without spamming email databases, social networks and personal
contacts.

6. FieldTest - Currently in private beta.
When we started our private beta we launched with the ability to prototype a fixed dimension for a
smartphone, but let’s face it, we’re living in a multi-screen world. One of the most common bits of feedback
we’ve received is the ability to create prototypes for iPad and different orientations.
We gave it some thought and realized if we were going to put the work into it we might as well allow the
creation of prototypes of ANY dimension. After all, who knows what other devices might be coming our way in
the following weeks, months and years. So, that’s what we did.

iPad GUI PSD - A free vector iPad GUI set.
Now that Apple has officially released the iPad we want to start designing for it. While Apple’s interface
builder is great, it doesn’t really allow us to create custom UI elements on the fly. We decided to take a page
from our iPhone GUI PSD and create one for the iPad.
The PSD was constructed using vectors, so it’s fully editable and scalable. You’ll notice there are a few new UI
elements as compared to the iPhone interface. The workable screen design is formatted to 768 x 1024 so
anything you design in the Photoshop file can easily be brought over to the SDK.
It’s 1.0 so I’m sure we’ll notice missing elements as we begin to use it. We’ll perodically update it to include
new elements as we notice them or as they become available through any SDK updates.

8. Review for Dev
As iOS indie app developers we've loved the whole development experience: the "Apple system" is really great
from this point of view.
We found it very difficult to get people to beta test our app before release. At marketing times after release,
we faced the huge difficulty of getting enough reviews on the App Store in order to get a rating displayed. We
refused to ask our friends/family to post biaised reviews.
