Feenix posted:Do we know what its source is? Forecast.io. I have to say it's basically what I want out of a weather widget, so I'm tempted. I wish I could code in objective-c because that's probably so easy to do and yet no one had a good widget. If he could just get the highs and lows on one line it would be killer.

Most of the widgets are not thinking that vertical spacing is the most important thing in the notification center. If I made a weather widget it would look something like this:

If there isn't a smart dev would jump on that because I bet it would be super popular.

I can't believe facebook wasn't one of the first apps out supporting the 6/6+. I'm just assuming it will be part of their update next Tuesday.

Good news to whoever liked the simple weather widget I designed: I have sold the rights to an app developer and am working with him to figure out what can be added to make it the best weather widget on iOS.

Feenix posted:The Widget layout is an important step. Sourcing data is the second. I'm totally ignorant of how this stuff works but can you license/use WeatherUnderground's source? Unfortunately that's out of my hands. Question Mark Mound posted:Awesome stuff! The only thing I'd suggest from your mockup earlier would be to have the sun in yellow, rain in blue, etc. I always find the colour placement to be just as important for at-a-glance weather checks as the shapes themselves. I'm going to be suggesting the option to have colored / white (well that just sounds awful after typing it) icons in the widget settings.

radge posted:This Workflow app seems nice. A bit like a supercharged native IFTTT. 40% off launch special too. I got a demo of this from the kid who created it and I was pretty impressed with the huge amount of services you could chain. Then he told me he was going to charge $5 or $7 for it and I just said "ohhhh alright".

Did you try typing "stopwatch widget" in the AppStore and just trying out 2-3 of the top results? Because pretty sure you'll be set. Kids these days. I used to walk to school in 12 inches of snow, uphill...

It's the same as it's been for 3-4 years, ymmv with navigation apps. If you're in a big city you're probably well off with any. If you have lag issues with the position of your car there's some software / hardware issue at play.

Fresh Air has an icon design that's like 85% similar to a weather icon design I made but never released publicly and it still spooks me out a little. But now if I use that icon it would look like I stole their idea.

Weather widget news The notification center weather widget that I designed, posted in this thread, then sold has finally gone live (as a part of a full app) on the app store: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/atmos/id949017360 Disclaimer: I had nothing to do with the rest of this app and receive no royalties.

All of them. The dev gave me a free copy of the app, I like what he did with the widget, made all the options customizable:

Yeah I sold it for a flat fee because I spent very little time on it and think I won't get as much of a return with a low royalty percent.

Happy Noodle Boy posted:App chat: I just got myself a new job and I'm now managing a ton of projects and I'm looking for a better way to keep track of what the gently caress I did on a day to day basis. In my mind, I'm basically looking for a glorified to-do list where I can type out what I do for the day as it comes up (received plans, reviewed notes, approved invoices, etc) with the option to tag/categorize each entry so at the end of the day or week or whenever I can see both what went down during a particular day or view all the items for a specific project. Right now I'm just using tasks/reminders but poo poo's just going to get really cluttered really quick. Are you sure the scope of what you're doing is small enough for a simple to do app? Wondering if you should try a real project management app like asana.

maduin posted:People are incapable of recognizing use cases which exist beyond their own. They're also incapable of recognizing that their spergy workflows using 3rd party apps are and never will be used by normal people who just want to check and respond to the 5 emails they get a day and play Candy Crush. To be fair I think some of the bigger criticisms of apple lately is they've lost that craft of dumbing things down and making things simple, as the need for more and more features grows.

Unrelated, but I got my mom an Ipad Air 2 for Christmas last year and it is her first internet connected device ever. The other day she asked me if she could "ask Siri too many things" and I got a good laugh out of it. She's also 100% dependent on using siri to do anything outside of playing Candy Crush and Words with Friends. She doesn't realize Safari = Internet.

I'm like an old man when it comes to podcasts apps and can't figure out how to get one that just downloads episodes when I tell it to and does nothing automatically. Like I'm pretty sure that's doable in Overcast but I just turn into an idiot when trying to use it.

I might be wrong, but I think the Waze team said they currently have no plans to support Carplay. It's not a matter of just showing the phone app on the screen, carplay requires a new interface be built.
