To a large extent, the skills required to develop an app have become commoditized over the past few years. Also available, are a large number of templates to kickstart app development (specially games). That being said there are some key issues which differentiate successful apps:
User Acquisition: - Organic - Paid (at a price that gives best ROI).

Customer Support: - How well can the developer interact with customer and build a community.
