Great article. Fun to see an app "launch" get salvaged, though of course the main takeaway (as usual) seems to be "get featured by Apple" (but you have absolutely no control over that, sorry). Not to fully discount the obvious effect that redoing the icon and screenshots had on sales in the midst of being featured, of course.

Actually Angry Birds got featured after they got a publisher who had connections to Apple and called them.
