Alpha App to do list

For my testers.. thank you for your testing…. As of now, I don’t have a real name for the app, nor any real artwork.. but I do have a list of things to do: Fixed delete bug Fixed address display bug. Note right now you can only “save” the contact information. I am working on […]

Productive Day Part Two

Well, it’s not perfect, but I added core data to my app that started yesterday.  I have a simple table behind a tracking app. Now, I want to add a sub-table underneath that tracking, so things will get more interesting as I move forward.  I have run into a bit of a snag, however, when […]

Productive day

Site has officially moved

Either Shutting or Moving the Site

after checking the price increase of my hosting provider, I will be either shutting down or moving this site next month. In the end, for a hobby site, it is not worth the hosting fees to keep it running on this provider. It’s not that they are too expensive, but that the return is not […]
