If I'm going to give 5% of my company to someone, it will be to my very first Dev who built V1.0 for very little money to build out his portfolio and because he liked the "idea". Without him I would never have had the opportunity that I do today.

If your iOS app is just relying on the App Store as its channel, and the coding involved more than just writing to spec then maybe it's worth more than 5%, but the main value is in finding the spec, not coding it :) - if part of the value or the main part is having a good execution and user experience, it's also likely worth more than 5%, but it's maybe better for a VC-backed startup to just pay employees.
