Release now. Don’t wait for perfection. The first iPhone apps entrepreneurs out of the gate will have the most downloads or sales, stay in the top 10 list and get the network effect playing favorably for them.
Those entrepreneurs who jumped in early, fast and first in the Facebook apps game won it all: the users, the VC money and the fame.
First movers will win the iPhone apps game. An app that’s rocky but released early will fare better than a perfect app released month down the line. The former can be improved thanks to user and media feedbach while the latter will face a more formidable task to gain awareness and adoption.
Don’t wait. Get those apps out yesterday!
