New Website!

January 31st, 2009

Over the past couple of days I’ve been updating the look of this site because I realised that the old design wasn’t all that great. The new site should be generally easier to navigate around slowly I will move over my iPhone SDK tutorials into this site so that all things iPhone are in one place.

Please let me know any feedback which you might have.

I’ve had another hard working few days and have got quite a way with the design of SubnetCalcPro. I’m beginning to realise the wonders of the iPhone SDK, but also I am regretting not planning the project better. I think that it’s still a reasonably small project and so I can safely make a few mistakes with planning because they won’t affect things too much. However, I have learnt so much for future projects with respect to working out in advance exactly what controllers will be implemented and the importance of a proper specification for each one.

Anyway, in spite of all that, it’s coming along well and here are a few more screenshots:

Subnet Calc Pro: Sneak Preview

January 13th, 2009

I have been hard at work the past couple of nights on my new version of Subnet Calc. I’ve managed to get the basics of it working and I have learnt a lot along the way. But because I feel I’ve achieved quite a lot I thought I’d share what I’ve done so far by showing off some screenshots of Subnet Calc Pro running on my iPod Touch. So here they are:

The kind people over at Softpedia have linked to Subnet Calc through one of their articles citing “… some apps are so useful you’ll be having remorse for not having to pay for the benefits.”

Well, thank you Softpedia for putting my app in your list of much needed applications. I decided to give away my application for free because I figured that I’d share what I’d learnt about iPhone application development with everyone. I am planning a much more full featured Subnet Calc which is going to provide some features which users have requested. This is going to be a separate application though so that there is still the option of the standard Subnet Calc as well.

Again, thanks Softpedia!

Subnet Calc: v1.2 Release

January 12th, 2009

Version 1.2 of Subnet Calc has been released. You can download it from iTunes – just search for Subnet Calc or if you already have v1.0 installed then you can choose to upgrade.

This version is a minor release to fix a small issue where entering a malformed IP would result in the application crashing. I have also implemented automatic checking of what is entered into the text fields which helps with typos.
