While I have been developing apps for some time, I’ve not been very good at promotion and/or pricing. I am hoping to get more users so that I can get better feedback on my various apps. To that end, I have just scheduled a blowout sale of the following apps: I have created the apps […]
I’ve had to increase the price of Wasted Time across all platforms to $0.99. Currently if you buy for one platform you have access across all (except for VisionOS). I am hoping to add a new feature for a fall launch!
Yesterday I went to #Unwrap Live 2024. This online, all day, SwiftUI programming class by Paul Hudson from Hacking With Swift fame, was all about the Apple Vision Pro this year. I love the way Paul explains code, techniques, and APIs. The other valuable thing is, he is willing to rathole on a question that […]
Well, I’ve finally done it. I have submitted an app that will launch on the same day as a new piece of Apple hardware. I have taken my simple application – Wasted Time, and did a total re-write over the last year to better take advantage of SwiftUI and the latest Swift APIs. I changed […]
Since completely rewriting WastedTime into SwiftUI and fixing it to run nearly the same code across macOS, watchOS, iOS, iPadOS, and tvOS, I’ve not been happy with the way I’ve handled the fonts. Today I took a step back and made changes to better handle the needs of larger devices. Ultimately the code is pretty […]
I just got notified that Wasted Time for macOS has made it thru the App Store review process. That means both the iOS and macOS versions have now been updated to support multiple languages. I am really excited by this and hope to add more languages as I go forward. Currently, the app supports – […]
Just a quick note to say – Wasted Time for the Apple TV is now available. This is the perfect app for a conference room to show people how much it is costing to get a meeting started! Drop me your feedback!!! Demo on Simulator
So, I finally have had a few things slow down enough so I could do some more coding. I am working on two projects at once. The first is adding Siri support to Wasted Time v8.0 – this has been really fun, as I am learning about Siri Intents, changing the app to run without […]
The best advice I was given by people who have been at WWDC before was to focus on getting time with the engineers. All the sessions are streamed as videos, and you can spend time later to watch the ones you missed. This is excellent advice! I stared the day yesterday with getting with the […]
After a brief testing period, I have submitted a new version of Wasted Time today to the Apple App Store. This version completely removes Facebook Integration. I have done so, after looking at the data that Facebook provided in the brief period that version 7.1.1 was in the store. I have decided not to feed […]
