So iPhone apps are Objective-C, but it seems that with the upcoming release you'll be able to use a language called Swift, which supposedly help to code faster.
“Swift is a new programming language for iOS and OS X apps that builds on the best of C and Objective-C”
Excerpt From: Apple Inc. “The Swift Programming Language.” iBooks. https://itun.es/us/jEUH0.l
If you can I would probably lean towards Swift (Apple has free documentation and Books on Swift in their book store, check out link above). You would probably need an understanding of all the language terms of programming such as;
Every language has slight variation of the meaning of things (syntax), below are just some examples not a complete list of things you have to understand at least what they mean so when you read you can understand what they are trying to teach.

- ==
- ===
- Object oriented programing (OOP)
- Classes
- Properties (this is a Variable, but inside of a class it's called a Property)
- Methods (this is a Function, but inside of a class it's called a method)
- Public
- Private
- Static
- Extending A Class
- Understanding Inheritance
- Abstract Classes
- Objects

- Instantiating / Instantiate / Instance
- Primitive Types

- Comments in Code
- Constructor(s)
- Documentation, creating and reading
- Program Patterns
- Importing Libraries

From what I have seen & read. Python has been the favor to start with. That and having a lot of mathematical skills. Basically starting with a language you learn and use immediately.
