Default Re: iPhone Cigar App ... need beta testers

That would work, and is actually what I did was select the current option. Highlighting it would be good. I agree on the too many buttons.

I keep thinking about this one, but here's the question: On the home screen I list the total quantity in your humidors, and the number of "unique cigars". what if you had a cigar with quantity of 5 in your humidor, and 10 other cigars with quantity of 0. Those numbers would show:

5 Total Cigars
11 unique cigars

which looks kind of strange. Thoughts on how to manage that situation?

How about a 3rd option, of Total wanted cigars?
5 Total Cigars
11 unique cigars
6 Wanted Cigars?

then from the wanted cigars screen, you could add a quantity to a humidor and it would be removed from the wanted list?

that button really means "edit list". It is pretty consistent with other iPhone apps in that regard. The challenge is allowing other editing without already having a cigar selected. Thoughts on behavior you'd like to see?

I guess my thought is it feels like an extra page, where the only option is the edit button, and the only option from edit is to delete the cigar. I'm kinda stuck on ideas for it, is this between screen needed?

Yes, this is something I want to do, but might be a version 1.1 feature.


Good idea, and probably pretty easy to implement. I'll take a hard look at fitting that in for the initial release.


Jon already answered that one. Just click the section button again to go to the "top" of that section. Just so you know, that works in other iPhone apps as well, and I just learned about it recently myself



I appreciate your great testing and feedback!!
It's been a pleasure! look forwarding to purchasing it from Apple when it's released!
