    Unlike Android, which is mostly Java, iPhone runs iOS platform, and the language is Objective-C.

    FYR Native iPhone applications are developed in the language Objective-C and run on the iPhone OS platform. The platform has a layered architecture with the Cocoa Touch layer sitting on the top.

    I think that Objective-C is most common for iOS development.

    Well check this dev platform out: http://www.phonegap.com/

    It's open source and free. You develop once then deploy to iPhone, Android, and BB. Very powerful stuff.

    JavaScript. For develop native apps.
    Titanium - http://www.appcelerator.com/

    But if you using XCode and Interface Builder before, work on titanium is not very simple.
    Because he it does not support nib files.

    The programming language for iPhone and iPod touch apps is written in Objective-C using the Cocoa Framework. The language itself isn't too hard to learn it's a variant of C, similar to C++.
