I started writing this app years ago, and I try to put out a new version each year, just to keep up with Apple’s API changes. The last two versions are the biggest changes I’ve had to make in a while.<\/p>\n
First, Apple has removed their social sharing capabilities, requiring me to re-write the app to use both Twitter and Facebook’s own APIs. Both of these have ballooned the size of my app from only about 8MB to over 100MB! Crazy. {Well after I posted it, I see it is only 15MB, so I guess that is not too bad)<\/p>\n
I also added a feature I am looking forward to, and that is tracking the total number of people in meetings over time. The app captures the # of people only twice, each run. Once when you press “Quorum”, meaning that we know how many people had to wait before the meeting started, and once when the meeting ends. While this will undercount the number if people leave early, it will give you a cool metric of how many people you meet with.<\/p>\n
One key thing to know is that I don’t ever have access to this information. All data is stored on the persons own iPhone, so the only time any information is shared, is if you setup twitter to say how much time was wasted. And even this is based on time, number of people and the rate you provide. As such, it is pretty hard for anyone to back out any real data. So what do you think? I’d love to hear from you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
