iPhone iPad Sweet Hotel Work 2

YOKOHAMA (Señor Tomato) – Besides the cold weather, I don’t like the winter season because the daylight time is short. I usually have dry skin, but I don’t this winter.

Anyway, the other software title of the double releases that I talked about in the last article is Sweet Hotel Work 2. It’s an iOS app for iPhone and iPad users.

Sweet Hotel Central 2 helps you run your hotel business whether you have hundreds of daily guests or are just renting vacant rooms after your kids left home for college. Sweet Hotel Central 2 lets you create room and guest records so that you can book reservations and maintain schedule on the weekly basis. Sweet Hotel Work 2 works with this desktop application side by side and lets you stay alert on the status of guest rooms while you are away from hotel management. It is designed such that you as a room service or repair service representative and a hotel manager share information remotely on the status (out of service, open, checked-in…) of each room.   Continue reading →

Mac application Sweet Hotel Central 2

YOKOHAMA (Señor Tomato) – Some of you probably know that I hate the cold winter weather although today’s temperature has risen to 11°C (about 51°F) in the Yokohama area. I guess 11°C is not that bad as long as you stay inside. I run 4 or 5 km in the evening every day. It gets quite cold by that time. Hopefully, it will get a lot warmer next month.

Oh, well, I’m ready to introduce to you the first software product of this month. It’s one of double releases just like the combo that I introduced at the very end of the last year. This desktop application is called Sweet Hotel Central 2.

Whether you have hundreds of rooms at your hotel or just rent a couple of empty rooms for a short-time stay, Sweet Hotel Central 2 gives you everything you need to run a hotel business on your Mac so that you can host guests efficiently. You can register tens or even hundreds of rooms at a time and assign a geographical location to each property & room. Click on the Map tab, and you can see where your properties & rooms are all located on the map. Shown under the Schedule tab is your weekly schedule for hosting guests. Create a customer record so that you can book a reservation for your guest. Find out which room is available or not available for your guests based on the room capacity and their budget.

Sweet Hotel Central 2 goes beyond letting you manage customer records and book room reservations. It works with its iOS counterpart, Sweet Hotel Work 2, side by side so that you can set up a communication table between you and room maintenance workers. Send an invitation to a room service representative so that he or she can receive a notification every time you push a room status change. Once a table is set, iOS users can even push and receive a room status change among themselves.   Continue reading →

Mac application Ranger Station 2

YOKOHAMA (Señor Tomato) – Although I hate the winter season, this January isn’t so bad. Today, the highest temperature was 16°C (about 60°F) in the Yokohama area. Unfortunately, it will be colder tomorrow, according to the weather forecast.

Anyway, I’m ready to introduce the first software product of this year. It’s a desktop application that works with the last iOS software release. It’s called Ranger Station 2.

Ranger Station 2 is a virtual command center designed for a group administrator who wants to keep track of the current locations of their group members on the map. At the end of the last year, we released an iOS app for iPhone and iPad users. Ranger Station 2 directly works with this app, HereRanger 2. Use HereRanger 2 to send invitations so that you can keep track of your members with a larger window on your Mac. Whenever someone you follow pushes their current location with a short message, you will receive a remote notification to your Mac through this application.

The following is how Ranger Station 2 works together with HereRanger 2.

  1. The team member uses HereRanger 2 to create an invitation with a 6-digit verification number and a deep link.
  2. The team member emails the invitation to the Ranger Station 2 administrator.
  3. The Ranger Station 2 administrator click on the deep link. The Ranger Station 2 administrator enters the PIN number.
  4. Ranger Station 2 shows team member’s current location on the map.
  5. The team member uses HereRanger 2 to pushes his or her current location with a short message.
  6. The Mac computer will receive a location change notification update.

iPhone iPad 位置だよ戦隊2

横浜 (トマトソフトウェア) – やっと冬至も過ぎ、少しホットしているこの頃ですが、この寒い中皆さんは如何お過ごしでしょうか？やはり寒い冬はイヤですね。夏も暑くて辛いですが、夏の方がまだマシです。自分は冬が大の苦手で、手のアカギレにかなり苦しんでいます。
　さて今日紹介する製品は7年以上に前に出荷した「Family Track」という製品の更新版です。「更新版」とは言っても、確かに製品を使う意図は同じでも完全にUIをSwiftUIで書き直し、「Family Track」にあるコードは全く参考にしなかったので、全くの別製品として仕上がりました。この「更新版」たる製品とはその名も「位置だよ戦隊2」です。
　「位置だよ戦隊2」は仲間同士で位置情報を共有するのが主な目的のiOS用（iPhone及びiPad）のアプリです。例えば、会社の同部署で働く人達に追随してもらうことで、ボタンを1回押すだけでその人達に同じ情報を同時に送ることができます。情報の受け取り側を「追随者」または「Follower」と言いますが、本アプリの地図に招待者（Leaders）のアイコンと名前が表示されます。個々のLeaderが発信ボタンをタップすると、その人の位置と簡単なメッセージが相手に即座に伝わります。しかも追随者達は通知を受けるので、誰が位置を更新したかがすぐに分かるのです。   Continue reading →
