iPhone Cigar App RELEASED!

[kelmac07]

Thank for the help guys...guess I'm updating to OS 3.0.

[Mirrorlure7m]

KenS : when are you going to add the "update" function ? So all we will have to do is press the update button and it will connect to a server and will do all the updates as far as the database goes.

I'm a new poster to CA, but have been trolling for a while, and couldn't resist posting to this thread.

I've been enjoying your app for a few weeks Ken. Great Stuff! I may have missed it while reading, but have you got a list of things you are adding to the next version? I've got a few things while messing around with it that I wish it did, and I didn't know if you wanted a PM, posted here, or emailed to you.. but of course you could already be working on those things so i didn't wanna waste your time w/o seeing a list =)

Thanks for creating the best cigar app for the iPhone =D

Best way to provide feedback is to email me at the address in the app. I keep all of the feedback organized in a 'wish list' of ideas people have provided, so can track better that way.

if you go back a page or two in this thread, you'll see the main updates that are coming with version 1.5.0 (still in review at apple at the moment). Hopefully that will post to the app store within a week or so.

You know what would be great, Ken (and I'm not sure if this is a "you" thing or an Apple thing) -- an export option. How great would it be to offload your Mobile Stogie data into Excel so you could email it, or print your inventory?

Maybe I am misssing something, but when I look at My Cigars I can see the Brand and Name of a cigar, but not the shape. Can that be added to what is seen when I look at My Cigars.
Currently I have been adding that in the name area, but it would be nice to see the shape there. I just started usin this so I may be looking at it wrong.

Thanks.

Yep, right now all of that information is in the reference section (shape, length, ring gauge, etc.). How much of the reference info is needed in the My Cigars section? I have toyed around with having a button to "flip" the screen to toggle between the My Cigars info and the Reference info. Would it be better to just list more of the info directly on that My Cigars detail page?

What do you guys think?

I there are two cigars with the same brand and name won't they gt added together. If the shape was added they would be separate. This is why I was asking for shape. Not a big deal.
This is the only extra thing I think would be nice to see. Mainly to separate the sizes. I realize you are probably trying to keep the info displayed to a minimum for space real estate.

A direct 'export' thing not simple, as there are a lot of limitations in the filesystem that apple doesn't allow certain actions. Likewise, when emailing, I don't think they allow attachments. However, I could create a full table of inventory data in the body of an email message, which you could address to anybody (including yourself). Would that be useful?

By the way, you are on your own if you accidently email your inventory to your wife

I'll try and remember to email this later, but I think the ability to set a password would be great.

Ken there's a crash bug, I think it was present in the other version as well. Does it on all of them but here's an example.

My humidor > Don Pepin Garcia > (swipe a cigar [assuming you want to delete and it was a single] when you hit the delete button the app crashes without deleting the cigar)

other than that top notch

Ditto for me.

Nice update though. I like the new additions.

Aack! Ok, I can confirm the bug, and I'll get it fixed. In the meantime, just drill down to the detail page for that cigar, and use the "Delete" button on that page. That works fine. Sorry for the inconvenience

Let me know what you need help with Ken. Id be more than happy to help.

[aich75013]

I have no problem sending you a spreadsheet of brands that I added. Of course I don't have nearly as many as others.

[aich75013]

I did notice that if I try to delete a cigar, the cancel button won't work. At that point you have to delete it.

[longknocker]

Update is working great, Ken! Thanks so much!

I often find the cancel button has to be tapped several times, and specifically on the top half of the button. It does seem hard to hit that button correctly, but it will work eventually.

That set of buttons is called an "ActionSheet", and I see the same problem with other apps as well. I don't think it has anything to do with Mobile Stogie specifically.
