There used to be an app called Tracky that you could feed tracking numbers into and it would track them all in one app. Is there an app for this nowadays? Tracky just disappeared off the internet one day and that was that.

Can anyone suggest a keyboard app that is just the default keyboard with a number row above it? All the keyboards that come up in the app store seem mainly focused around emojis or gifs or whatever bullshit other than text that people apparently think a keyboard is for.

I'm looking for a to do list app, but with group support. Basically, I just took over a management position in a retail store, and task management is getting too tetris for my liking. So what I want is a way to generate a list of tasks, some are every day, some every week, some once a month on certain times. To make things difficult, sometimes my district manager will schedule a random meeting and it fucks my short term planning up. So what I want is a to do list that has the ability for my boss to put in tasks manually, and have it pop up in my app. Bonus points if they can flag tasks for priority. iPad/notification center/watch/ect support would be cool, but not a deal breaker. Don't mind paying a reasonable amount for the right app. Can anyone recommend something for me?


While I'm at it, is there a good sales tracker app? Something I can calculate goal projections for profit/boxes sold/ect. I'd especially appreciate something that let me track sales rep performance. Anyone use anything like this?

I just picked up splashtop with the 9.7 pro and the only resolution options I have available are 1024x768 or native PC resolution, both of which don't look great on the ipad. Do you know if there is a way to use the full resolution of the ipad with splashtop? I wasn't able to find many others with the same issue.

When I install the Facebook Pages Manager app, it won't send push notifications. At first launch, it asks me to enable notifications and when I tap OK it takes me to the app's settings. But there is no notifications toggle when there should be. If I back out and go to iOS's notifications settings, the Pages app isn't listed in the app list even though it should be. I can't get push notifications from he Pages app on my iPhone and that really sucks when I'm missing client inquiries.

I've tried reinstalling the Pages app, reinstalling the Facebook app, rebooting, checking Facebook settings, etc. over and over and in different orders and can't get anything to work. When I install the Pages app on my iPad and my friend's phone to test, the app does appear in the notifications settings and the app settings does include a notifications option on both of those devices. I'm not sure what the heck went wrong on my phone but something is wonky.

Facebook support is a dumpster fire and I'm not sure where to ask this. Any suggestions?

This may be a dumb question, but why not just use Calendar and create a new calendar and share it?

It won't do priority tasks as far as I know, but you can set "sharees" to either view only or view and edit.

I want to do some internal file sharing and task assignment. Basecamp3 rules and is working out great, just wish they had sales tracking.

Doesn't the stock camera app already embed that (along with GPS coordinates) in the EXIF data?

EXIF data isn't any harder or easier to fake than a visible timestamp.

edit: Though most likely the person asking for the photos can't handle anything more complicated than a timestamp on the image itself.

Not that I know of - I only have 800x600, 1024x768 and native.

Are their any apps that can push custom reminders based on localised weather?

IE if it's raining, tell me to bring in clothes etc...?

Dark Sky has a bunch of custom notification settings. I have it push a full day summary every morning at 7am, then send me a notice whenever precip is starting. It updates location in the background automatically and doesn't seem to murder my battery doing so.

After like a year of this being broken, on the next app update a few days after I posted this it was resolved. In the unlikely chance it wasn't just a coincidence, a big thank you to the potential Facebook goon who saw this!
