  • Which APPS do you use the most and which ones would you never get rid of?

I use a lot; in fact, on the iPhone I only have apps that I use (I refuse to have it full just because).

If I had to pick a few, I'd pick Tweetbot first, logically. Secondly, the Google app, the quick search app, since although it's pretty bad for looking for images, it's faster and more direct than Safari or Chrome. Also, I guess Instagram, I couldn't live without it, and then I guess my bank's app, Cajamurcia, and the one fromPepephone I am obsessed with megas spent, euros, etc. These are the 5 apps I would never get rid of.

  • Are you PRO JAILBREAK? Whether you answer yes or no Why?

I'm anti-jailbreaker, and I'll explain why. If the Jailbreak were only to add tweaks, I would not care (I would still not put it, I like the iPhone pure, as it is), but what 90% of mortals use it for is to hack apps and that is something that bothers me. kill.

I'll give you an example of what I'm saying. I have worked with various friends developing apps, and seeing that the app you've worked on for 2 months, that has had to go through Apple's approval process, that the development license has cost you almost 100 bucks, etc; After all that, seeing that you have 100 downloads from the AppStore and 1000 from the Jailbreak, is something that kills and more so when you have made the app with two or three colleagues at home and you have put it at 0.89 cents.

Having you hack Angry Birds, for example, is almost negligible. Rovio already has a percentage of losses due to the Jailbreak. They are a great company, and their developers have unimaginable salaries, they don't care, they are still very rich. But small developers, those of us who work from home instead of an office in California, every download via jailbreak is something that kills us. It is as if the person who has pirated our app came and told us that the 2 months of work, the idea and the effort that we have put in, not to mention the illusion, are not worth 89 cents.

  • Own an iPad? If you have it, which apps would you highlight on this device?

I don't own an iPad at the moment. It's enough that I bought my iMac and my iPhone 5 'first hand' and with my savings hahahahahaha. What I am sure of is that I will soon have one, and even if I don't, I have played quite a few (especially at work).

If I had it, I would definitely have Paper, one of the best apps I know, with all the brushes and so on. It's like always having a Moleskine with you, and with many more features (because painting with watercolor on Moleskine is a mess but painting with watercolor on Paper is amazing).

From here we would like to thank Álvaro for offering to collaborate with us and from APPerlas.com we wish him the best of luck in his interesting projects. We are already followers of your PODCAST. What are you waiting for to do it yourself?

Greetings to all and soon more ENTREVISTAPPS ?
