A few hours including iOS? Don't you need to go through lots of hoops even if it's only for personal use? Isn't it time-limited or something?

It does require a developer account at $100 a year, yes. But that's it: Once you have that, the app is not time-limited or anything. I can just install it to my device (wirelessly) via Xcode and I'm done.

It's probably only worth the $100/year if there are other apps you want to make for yourself though. I have other ideas for apps for my family, so I figured it's worth the cost. It sucks that I have to pay at all though, I admit.
