Nothing's wrong with Objective-C. But if you're interested in sharing some code to do cross-platform apps Xamarin makes it easier to do so with C#. You might write a layer to do API and data management/storage and general business logic and then share that code between Mac, Windows, iPhone, Android, Windows Phone, and Linux.

It would still be a lot of work because they don't try to abstract any of the UI or other things for you (and imo, they shouldn't). But if your app fits into this kind of design, and if you like C#, then it could be very valuable.

I'll just keep doing C++.
