Congratulations on this. In my experience, however, the initial cost to create is usually the cheapest part of development -- maintenance is expensive. If you have to update your app with a new developer in the future, I hope the initial developer followed good programming practices to make it easy to understand what's going on. I'd encourage you to pay another $50 next time and have the developer explain to you how the code works.
Thanks Greg - very true. Since the goal of this project was just to get something out the door I didn't really think of or plan for maintenance. Now I know for next time! I don't have any ambitions or monetary goals for it which is why I did it super cheapo.

I was able to dig into the project in xCode and make a small update, package it up and re-submit which was a really fulfilling experience to be able to figure it out!

Great to hear! You'll be coding in no time. :)
