Ive been on the site with my ipod before and its a pain. Maybe we should get an app |

| I would say it is way too complicated. But if they could... Impressive. _________________  |

| I don't even know what language the iPod is scripted in... this is kind of out of the question unless some very thankful user donates a ton of money. Then I could hire someone to do it. But that's doubtfully going to happen. |

| You need a mac first of all. I've looked into app-making before, and it requires a mac. Sadly. _________________ Hey, I'm Gr33n. You may know me as Linkshadow47.

| It'll take a lot of time and money to make a quality app for any device. Developers code in a language called "Objective-C", an offshoot of the C programming language.
This is how much it'll cost for at least one month of coding:
200 hours (development + graphic design) at $50/h is $10,000.
And that is just for paying people to do it. Coding by yourself will take years. Testing will also add to the time and money. Plus, you need a decent Mac, one that isn't the Mac mini. All in all, I think it's way too much to handle for a site like this one.

| I have high doubts that we will need 200 hours to code an app. I might check up on the language at least once to see if I can learn anything but as of now I won't be hiring or learning it myself. Safari works well with this site. |
