SharePlus, iPad client for SharePoint accepted in the app store :)

SharePlus got accepted in Apple's app store, and it's available for download among the very first wave of iPad apps.

Our team worked pretty hard to make it happen, we even got some outside help to make the deadline, but thankfully the initial goal of making it into the first round of iPad apps was accomplished. Now we should take a minute to celebrate before we dive into the next sprint :)

It's too early too tell, we've had only 3 days of sales figures, but the outcome so far is that the lite version downloads are better than expected (even though we had no clue as to what to expect :) it even made it into the top 15 business apps ranks in the U.S. app store today, according to appfigures reports (I couldn't confirm this yet). While the pro version downloads are a bit below what I had expected, even if the average conversion rate percentage is a solid 5%.

Now we will have to work on improving those conversion rates, spreading the word about the app, getting reviews, and of course implementing SharePlus version 2.0 features, in particular online and offline edit.
