Big and small updates abound!
Posted by Chris on Oct 27, 2011 in iOS Apps | 0 comments
It has been a while since I have updated the blog but I have been very busy. So what have I been working on? I have been working a ton. I moved twice (finally settling in now) and on this wonderful rainy day I have updated iPill Trackr with all of the new features I introduced into iSupplement not to long ago.
The past few weeks have seen massive sales of iPill Trackr, which admittedly, has helped to push me to introduce the update as soon as possible. I was finally able to recreate a crash bug that a few users seemed to have found and fixed the issue. So what’s new?

Posted by Chris on Jul 15, 2011 in iOS Apps | 0 comments
I finally got Xcode working again and was able to successfully upload the newest update to Text Flasher. Version 2.0 now fully supports iPad! I am working onba few other updates for this app as well as some others to include iPad support. Rainbow will be updated very soon to remove ads (I forgot they were still there from when the app went from free to paid) as well as iPad support. The huge update to iSupplement is almost ready so stay tuned. In the mean time. Enjoy!
Read MoreLooking into iPad app development now!

Now that I have an iPad 2 in hand I am trying to come up with some app ideas that are iPad specific. After testing ALL my apps on my iPad they all work on iOS 4.3.3 albeit in “iPhone” mode. I may make some of the apps into native iPad apps (text flasher) comes to mind. Reminder is essentially dead thanks to Apples Reminders app in iOS 5. Proxim and Million Shake challenge never really took off and iSupplement and iPill Trackr won’t be very practical on an iPad as you are more likely to have your phone on you rather than busting out the iPad just to mark your doses.
Read MoreNew UILocalNotification Category to Auto-Increment Badges
Posted by Chris on Jun 12, 2011 in Code Snippet | 0 comments
I’ve talked before about how annoying it is to increment UILocalNotification badge properties when you have multiple notifications scheduled. I made a simple Category (extension) for UILocalNotification that can be dropped into any iOS app and with a single method call will automatically update all of your badges to the correct number. The source code is up at github: here it is a simple Category but will save a lot of people from the hassle of incrementing the badges.
To use this you need to do two things. In your appDelegate usually in the – (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions method you simply add [UILocalNotification setBadge];

The app idea that one of the blog readers suggested was submitted to Apple last Sunday. Today, thursday, the app has been approved and is now available! Since I don’t believe the app will be searchable until tomorrow here is the link for the app on the app store: Text Flasher. I am still accepting ideas for apps other people would like to see so hit me up on twitter (@csheldrick) or email csheldrick at gmail dot com. Enjoy!

Posted by Chris on Apr 24, 2011 in iOS Apps | 0 comments
A few weeks ago I wrote up a post asking for iOS app ideas that people would like to see. I really liked one of the ideas that was submitted and began working on the app (dev time has been cut way back with my new job). Last night I finished the app and graphics for the app.
The new app is called Text Flasher and has a lot of uses that I never originally thought of. More info will be available once the app is approved.
