It looks like you're using Paperfold (https://www.cocoacontrols.com/controls/paperfold). Mind adding it to the list of apps that use it on Cocoa Controls?
Also, I'd love to know if you use any other OSS components. I'm always looking for apps to highlight as my 'app of the week'.
"Downloading" is a fairly specific verb that generally doesn't involve money, which is why it feels so jarring when I see it used in relation to making a purchase.
Does anyone else feel as though "purchase" would be a more appropriate verb for their copy?
Good luck with your app and congratulations on shipping.
- High adoption rate of iOS6
- Cool iOS6 APIs (Autolayout, UIKit attributed text, indexed subscripting, etc)
and they decide to write for iOS6 only. They could support iOS 5, but the work is not worth the reward with the adoption rate of iOS6 being as high as it is.
For developers with existing customers, it is a different story.
I've spent many hours on other applications, mostly Mac, where the time spent making something backwards compatible was never really worth it. Example: I worked on getting fancy animations in an app that had to support Panther, which didn't even have NSAnimation support. However at this time Leopard had just came out and had all the new Core Animation hotness. Needless to say I would have saved countless hours if I didn't try back porting new features to older OSes no longer supported by Apple.
Without having a chance to download it yet, how does the to-do list part work? Is it pulling a to-do list from one of my current to-do list apps, or do I need to create another one for this?
Any future chance for support for a Twitter feed or possibly an RSS feed?
Am I the only one that wished this is what the iOS 7 lock screen looks like?
The same goes for the events/calendar panel. They are both using Apple's EventKit API.
The news panel supports RSS feeds and Twitter is a possible option in the future, I'll look into doing it.
I will say, though, that I think for the way my morning routine tends to go, it would be more useful to me as a Mac app. I almost always look at my MBP in the mornings before leaving for work, but rarely make a point of checking my iPad, so I could see this being really useful for me as a full-screen Mac app, where I can just leave it running on a space. Any plans in that direction? :)
I wake up every day around 5:30am and try to get up and going as quickly as I can.
You nailed some of the key things I already do in the morning: - check the weather - figure out what meetings I have for the day
The other thing I look for is if there was anything interesting for me that happened while I was sleeping. The best example is how I check to see if there are emails from specific people or internal monitoring services.
I could give you about 10 email addresses that I care about and get a digest of emails just from those email address.
It's too easy to get distracted by other emails once I open Mail.app or, in my case, Mailbox.
I would love to have an API I could push information to. If I could have our systems send dashboard updates it could alert me to system issues. That would /own/.
Just one question:
Was there any particular reason for the limiting of color schemes? Why not just show the user a color wheel and let them choose whatever they want?
Best of luck with Morning!
Gonna need to start learning ruby.
The flight tracker idea is a good one, I'll look into it. Thanks!
Next, stocks app gives no indication of time of change... 1 day?
Great idea, had high hopes but so far, not quite there
Sorry that it's not there yet, but hopefully we'll do a better job with a few more iterations and refinements.
It looks really clean and professionally designed. Bravo to the OP for a job very well done.
Not being an iOS user, I'm not sure how readily you can extend the lock screen, but I agree with joeblau. It's really handy to have a subset of these data points on the lock-screen. I'd like to have TSLA right there before I even swipe the lock screen away. :) That's not possible (to my knowledge) on Windows.
