Ted Talk Evaluation

          Finally, after completing my Ted Talk in class, a huge burden was lifted off my back and now I can focus back on trying to get my app to work and release it into the app store and eventually get some profits (for which Mr. Perlman will get 10% of all profits on this app). Today, on my Ted Talk, I think it went quite well, though not exactly how I practiced it. Looking at the four grading criterions (visual component, content, organization, and delivery), I think...

Programming Failures

          Well, before continuing I would like to make one thing clear: my app is still not finished. It is not finished because I have not been trying or because I have been lazy. It isn't finished because Objective C is much harder than I thought. So, for this final post, I have decided to dedicate it to my failures in programming this app.        ...

More importantly, I was able to solve the error I was having last week, which actually took a ton of research, video tutorials, and long nights...

As it turns out, it is not nearly as easy as I expected, even after watching tons of video tutorials from Team Treehouse and after reading hours of Apple Documentation. At this point, I can't even get the App to run after adding my design to Xcode. Usually, my error...

TIME FOR SOME PROGRAMMING!!!!!!!

          Programming is the next, and most time consuming part of the app creation process. This is where my app comes to life and actually works. The programming aspect at this point is fairly mechanical, though difficult for a novice iPhone programmer (myself).

Designing the App: COMPLETE

          Over the course of the past few days, I have successfully completed the first step in my process of creating an iPhone app, which is designing the app. This process, though it seems extremely simple, is the most important part of the app creation process as the user interface as the user experience is fully dependent on it. No matter how much brilliant code is...

Whether it is setting an alarm, or even purchasing a coffee at Starbucks, iPhone users use their phones to accomplish these tasks. The main reason that the iPhone has become such a huge device and has transformed the mobile industry is solely...
