Once you purchase the app from vBulletin, you go into the members area and fill out the information for your app, name, vbulletin url, api key.
You pick some colors, if you want ads, if you want analytics
Then you add a splash screen and store icon.
Then you submit the app to be built
At which point for Android you can submit to the store
For iOS you need to download the package, make sure you have xtools fully installed, and then sign the package.
Then you can submit the app to the apple store.

Sounds easy, which usually means I'll end up with a headache when trying to do it .......

Slightly more seriously, I don't have any Apple products so I guess that leaves out an iOS version of the app. Does this matter? I'm happy enough just doing the Google Play Store version for now, is it possible to just do that?

I do have a Google account, assuming that the one I need is the same as my gmail account. I can download from the play store and leave ratings and such.

From where do I obtain the api key?

Thanks for the help.
