iOS App Adventures – Part 1
I think it was just about a year ago now that I had an idea for an epic iPhone App that (I think) would be useful and more importantly an app that does something better than the current apps out there in this field at the moment. I sat down and drew out what I needed and my train of thought was NATIVE APPS.
I’ve recently been doing a lot of responsive HTML/CSS stuff so my thoughts have changed from native to mobile web however I still wanted a presence in the App Store because its the only way to truly deliver the product.
I had some free time over the past couple days, signed up for a iOS developer account and began.
24 Hours later & my app is ready :)!
You might say “Its ONLY a webview UI – thats nothing special.” and you’d be right, but that is all I need for this app since I’m making the interface on the web – It does however have these two little buttons at the bottom, Home & Settings which are like hotkeys to take you to these pages fast, which is slightly more than ‘ONLY a webview UI’.
I don’t care – Im pretty happy with what I’ve made & also with the end result. Watch this space!
Update!
iPad Version!
Some fun
Just testing the quality of the iPhone 4S camera, oh and Sam going for a run!
I haz iPhone 4S
I got up at 4am, went to O2 at 7am and stood outside for 2 hours, then I got a demo of the iPhone 4S by someone who is obviously a Sony Ericsson user and then he tried to sell me speakers.
O2 complained to me when I wouldn’t stand infront of a laptop to see where the iPhone was on a map. I should of got to cut infront of these folk, instead I had to wait for the demo to be completed.
Add Product Images into Shopp Receipt
## ADD THIS INTO FUNCTIONS.PHP
add_filter('shopp_tag_purchase_item-image','purchased_image',10, 3);
function purchased_image($result, $options, $Purchase) {
$item = current($Purchase->purchased);
$product = new Product($id=$item->product);
return $product->tag($property='coverimage');
}
## NOW YOU CAN SHOW THE IMAGES INSIDE THE PURCHASED ITEMS WHILE LOOP
shopp('purchase','item-image');
I’ve long said Shopp is a total bellend, they totally missed out putting the product image tags into half the hooks. The above, will allow you to show the product image in the receipt, after all – its always nice to show you what you have bought after you’ve paid good money.
Get a grip Shopp – I’m so moving to WooCommerce.
