Well, I thought I had the last major bug figured out, but it was still there. So back to the drawing board. This is a bit of an insidious problem since it causes unexpected changes to the data. In order to keep from corrupting my testers data, I have not released any of my interim […]

Fixing a major bug in beta software
I’ve been working on my card tracking app for some time. I have been using it for approximately 4 years to track my own holiday cards, so there’s tons of data stored in my alpha and beta version. Today I finally figured out the last major bug, before I look to posting it to the […]
SwiftUI Fun and Bugs
Well I fixed the bug! The issue was the sequence of the code sequence between the ContactPicker and VStack within the Navigation View. I hadn’t realized that this was issue (Obviously). Here’s a video of the real way it should work. As you can see the UI is now working as you would expect.
Update on Holiday Card Tracker
A few years back I started an app that I was thinking of calling Christmas card tracker. The goal of the app was to learn Core Data. I spent time at WWDC working with a fellow attendee to fix problems I was having with Autolayout constraints, and got an early version working enough to where […]
WastedTime Watch – Progress
Ok, I had basically gotten frustrated trying to change WastedTime Watch to a fully SwiftUI based app. Apple changed the App Entry point which had completely changed how the AppDelegate function worked. I thought this app was the simplest of my apps, so I could easily convert it to the new Swift Architecture. Boy was […]
Wasted Time for Apple TV
One of the really cool things about keeping up with Apple’s summer release schedule is that you can add new features easily to your apps. This summer I spent time restructuring Wasted Time to add support for Widgets on iOS, macOS, and iPadOS. After I got that working, I thought, what the hell, why not […]
WWDC – Day 4
Another fun filled day, and now I am starting to get back into my code. I began the day with a session on the OS.Logging extensions added into Swift. I am thinking I should change my code to start using Logging instead of print statements. I do a lot of inline print statements so when […]
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 […]
Making Progress – Stand alone Watch App
I’ve been working on learning SwiftUI and Combine. I figured the best way to do this was to completely re-write wasted time as a native stand alone watch app. To begin with I am working on the main Meeting screen. The following video shows how cool SwiftUI is in making this UI just “work” on […]
WWDC Day Three (AKA Wednesday)
Today turned into a pretty productive day. After the problems of Monday and the recoveries of yesterday, I was looking forward to a day when I could just enjoy the sessions an and possibly take to the labs to figure things out. I began the day with a session on Sign-In with Apple. I am […]
