This past weekend I released updates to both WastedTime and WastedTime Watch. For WastedTime it was a minor bug fix, you can no longer end a meeting before it starts. Who would have thought of that one?! For WastedTime Watch, this was the total re-write I was working on. It is now much more colorful […]

WWDC – Day 5
I wanted to start this day early, since I was declined for my second Lab request. I have been working on Shortcuts support in Wasted Time and while I had a great session on Wednesday, I am still having issues with the launching of Wasted Time from the Shortcuts app. I am getting a “Sorry […]
WWDC 2020 – Day 2
Wow! Made it thru 9 sessions today, and have 2 more that I wanted to do, but I am bushed. I will try and post a quick summary in the morning of the session on this same blog post… More to come… As promised, here’s what I’ve learned on Day 2 (or at least the […]
WWDC 2020 – Day 1
7:24am WWDC-time  After being able to make it to WWDC for two years in a row, it really feels strange getting ready for WWDC while sitting at home. At least I am on vacation from the day job for the week, so I am letting the excitement build, while social distancing. I am wearing […]
Status update on WastedTime (all platforms)
Over the last few weeks, I’ve been working to do two things on the WastedTime set of apps. (Wow! I can say set of Apps now). While the basic functionality is working on all three platforms, iOS, macOS, and WatchOS, I am not happy with the behavior of SwiftUI to render the various graphics. SwiftUI […]
WWDC Wrap up
I decided to wait a week to write my WWDC wrap up, not because I’ve not had any time to write it due to the day job, non-profit work, and dealing with the WWDC Flu (okay that’s most of the reason), but also to give me time to reflect on all the things I saw […]
WWDC Day 1 – Awesome Woes
WWDC is designed for developers, and this year’s keynote didn’t miss. I arrived shortly after 6 am, and ended up pretty far back in the queue, but as always, Apple does a great job of moving every one thru. The four hour wait didn’t seem as along, and the discussions in the queue were fun […]
Two days with iPad Pro 11inch
If you follow my blog at all, you know that three years ago I got the original iPad Pro 12.9inch. It really changed how I used my iPad, as I could now really do significant work while on the go. I recently upgraded it to the new iPad Pro 11inch, which seems so small now, […]
Getting ready for Wasted Time V8.0
This summer has been a ton of fun learning how to address SiriKit in WastedTime. The last piece I have been working on is changing the UI to leverage Reactive Swift – AKA RxSwift. This will (hopefully) allow you to start a meeting on your HomePod and then open the app on your iPhone or […]
WWDC Day 4 – All About Debugging
I spent yesterday in sessions all day looking at Xcode, LLVM, and LLDB and it was amazing. I had plans to go to the Panic at the Disco party and beer bash (even got my above wrist band to confirm I could have a beer), but decided it would be more productive looking at Xcode […]
