Today I am proud to announce that BabyGrow 2.6.1 is now available! Outwardly, this is the “iOS 7” update, fixing a number of issues on iOS 7 and updating the UI to fit a little better with Apple’s new design vision. The entry editor has also been improved, adding support for copy and paste and […]
Update: Otto has been updated and is now available again. Go grab Remote and Antenna! Over the weekend, I released a minor update to Otto’s Remote which fixed a crash that, while a bit off the beaten path, was probable enough that at least one of my users encountered it1. There was one change to […]
I’m putting on the finishing touches of new versions of Otto’s Remote and Antenna. One of the primary features of these updates is localization. The good folks at iCanLocalize are providing French, Italian, German, Spanish, and Simplified Chinese translations. One or two other languages may also be coming in the near future. BabyGrow is also […]

Recently I’ve hinted a few times that I am working on a new project. Now that I’m putting on the finishing touches, I’m ready to let the world know. So, without […]
Jared Sinclair wrote about his disagreement with Apple’s messaging for iOS 7 in his recent post, Apps are content, too. It’s an interesting take on what has come out of Cupertino this week, and you really should go read it. Unfortunately, I think it’s bullocks. I tried very hard to sympathize with Jared, after all […]
Here we are once again patiently awaiting WWDC and the iOS 7 announcements that will likely be made there. I haven’t done this in a while, but sometime back I wrote my wish list for iOS 4. Back then, I was hoping for what I called Simple Springboard to make iOS devices easier and safer […]
Several weeks ago, Yahoo! released their new Weather app, Yahoo! Weather. The app is quite lovely, featuring full screen photos overlaid with the weather information. When you scroll down, the photo blurs and shifts upwards. You can switch between locations by dragging from left to right, and there is a parallax effect as you do […]
