12-year-old American becomes one of Apples youngest developers

A boy from Mississippi has become one of the youngest App Store developers, reaching his personal goal of getting approval from Apple before his 12th birthday.

Charley Hutchisons free app, FriendsForFlickr, syncs users iPhone contacts lists with their corresponding Flickr account. The refresh button lets users grab new contacts photos as soon as theyre posted and loads photos from multiple contacts simultaneously.

Charley had already written an app for Android a year earlier, Doodles for Android – a Photoshop-style app that allows users to modify photos directly from their phones.
