Show HN: My first iOS App on the App Store

[itry]

I would have made more then one app out of this. One app that remembers 0, one that remembers 1, one app that remembers 2 and so on. So the user would not have to pay for all the numbers he doesnt want to track anyhow. If you want to remember "Appointment at 8" just download the appropriate app "Contare 8" and be done with it.

By now my solution to remember "8" is to reinstall "Asphalt 8". But that takes a while. Would be glad to have an easier solution.

Thanks...

The point is, I had an idea, I built it, I released it. I've not finished developing it. For someone who isn't an iOS Developer, I feel like I've achieved something.

Good job on launching something.

Two small things you can easily fix: * Your app icon corners are wonky, probably because you aren't making them square for the large images. Apple will do the cropping for you.

* Same thing with the screenshot, I would make sure it's the right resolution so you don't get artifacts.

But these are superficial things that you can fix easily. Congrats again for launching.

Thanks!

I noticed that the app icon was weird. I realised earlier that it's because I uploaded the rounded version rather than the square one.

Regarding the app store screenshots, I've uploaded the right sizes (taken on iPhone 5 and simulator for iPhone 4) so I'm not sure what's happened there.

Thanks again :)

Congratulations on the lauch to app store. I had the same idea; count no. of coffees, no. of cigarettes, no. of people, etc. A way to keep accountability about something.

Thanks! I want to add a way of counting more than one number, so this would definitely fill a need.

Yes, I know it's simple. It's not the best app. But I hit my MVP.
