Ultimate Omer 2 is Back!
Over two years ago, I began writing apps for iPhone and iPod touch. My third app was a little utility called “Sefira”. I distributed a few copies, and it was fun. However, a few copies is hardly a living, and I entered into talks with a well known software shop to sell what would become [...]
How to Redeem an iTunes Promo Code on iPhone
Ever gone in to Starbucks and seen those iTunes gift cards with a single use promo code on it? Perhaps you know a developer? Maybe you’ve followed one on Twitter and managed to grab a promo code for Angry Birds Space. Whatever the scenario, you’re going to want to use that promo code to download [...]
My new iPad
On Friday, I went to the Apple Store SoHo, on my way to work. As I walked there from the train, I saw the long lines. People were queuing up. There must’ve been about 50 people waiting outside. I thought I would be smart and buy new iPad at the SoHo store because everyone would [...]
I’m on the Air – Sweet!
Last night, I had the incredible opportunity to talk about Ultimate Omer 2 on the radio with Nachum Segal and ZK. (Embarrassingly, I still don’t l know what ZK stands for.) I want to take a moment to thank Gd for the opportunity. Thanks Nachum, ZK, Gary, and Dad. (If you want, I can cover [...]

Mincha Alerts uses KosherCocoa
I’ve received a message on Facebook from Ary Tebeka, an iOS developer, stating that KosherCocoa is being used in a neat little app called Mincha Alerts. The app uses background location to update itself automatically. Clever. Also, the icon is really nice. I’m on mobile so a link will follow after the break. Edit: [...]

Zmanim 4 On The Way
Zmanim for iPhone is due for an update. The previous version felt a little bit hacked together, especially since there was a performance issue with the scrolling of the table view.

Create a UIView in the view controller’s nib file for WAC orientation. 3. Implement shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation and willRotateToInterfaceOrientation:duration. When [...]
