What’s Coming Up Next? Tom Bluewater Introducing AngryNotes for iOS

iOS Swift iPhone iPad AngryNotes

TOKYO (Tom Bluewater) – It’s hot! And I’m angry. I’m so angry that I’ve decided to create a new iOS app in SwiftUI. The app that I spent three days in developing is called AngryNotes. Well, I just submitted it to App Store a few minutes ago. So it won’t be available for another two or three days.

AngryNotes is a plain text viewer and editor for iOS users. I don’t quite like Apple’s Notes for iOS in some respects. Notes lets you read and write text at the same time. So you can end up losing one when in fact you intend to select and copy a word. And it’s RTF-based. So you can end up with a mixture of regular and bold text styles if you copy and paste text from some web site. And my list goes on and on.

So here comes AngryNotes. It lets you read and write notes but not on the same board. AngryNotes is a plain-text reader. And you won’t end up losing a word or more when you just want to select and copy some segment of text. AngryNotes supports the contextual menu. When you read notes with it, you can select different text sizes and fonts.  Continue reading →

TOKYO (Tom Bluewater) – What a summer… Yes, it’s hot! Yes, I’m sweating. This scorching hot weather nearly kills me as two of my air conditioners are dead broken. Anyway, I submitted a new iPhone app several minutes ago. It’s called ClockMonkey.

ClockMonkey is a simple, boring iPhone app that I’ve developed so that I can used it at work. Actually, I also wanted to create something such that I can incorporate RxSwift/RxCocoa into the app. Don’t try ClockMonkey unless you want to waste some disk space on your phone.  Continue reading →

TOKYO (Tom Bluewater) – We still have two more months till the cold winter season ends. And I’m just hanging on and looking forward to seeing beautiful cherry blossoms in spring. Well, it’s been about three years since I developed an iOS outside my career. The app that I just submitted to Apple‘s App Store is called RollerText 2.

RollerText 2 is an upgraded version of an iOS app that I developed more than nine years ago. It’s a virtual telemprompter that lets you roll text letter by letter. RollerText 2 also comes with a new feature that lets you highlight all occurrences of keywords you specify.   Continue reading →

What’s Coming Up Next? Tom Bluewater Introducing Organize Essential 4 for macOS

Mac application Organize Essential 4

TOKYO (Tom Bluewater) – It’s finally here. Yes, I’m talking about the cold winter season. Well, it’s not that bad in the region where I live since the temperature seldom goes below the freezing point.

Anyway, I have submitted another desktop application to Mac App Store. This new software release is called Organize Essential 4.

Organize Essential 4 is a desktop application that lets you store your personal data in an encrypted form. We deal with a lot of accounts in cyberspace these days. You don’t want to use the same password across all accounts. In fact, you don’t even want to use the same username and email address acroll all accounts, either. A negative side of using different usernames, passwords and email addresses is that you have to have an application like Organize Essential 4 that gives you quick access to accont data.
