Averaging Labor Contraction Times

stevenwt2 writes this about Labor Mate in his feedback at the App Store, “Used it throughout a night of contractions and it worked flawlessly. No crashes, no problems, and it was easy to keep track of an average. If there was anything to update about the app, I would want the ‘Summary’ screen to be able to average based on a time period or number of contractions (average over last 5 contractions or over last hour, etc.) as an average over the entire night can be a little misleading. However, that is looking to the next version - good luck.”

How To Delete a Contraction Item

Tags: how-to, wayneeglonbrown posted the comment “would be good to be able to delete one put in in error” in the App Store. This is not the first time someone has asked for this feature or asked the question “how to delete.”  Good news is this feature already exists.

Quick Status Update on Killink CSV Editor

Recently dutchguru mentioned the limited, or “few”, software updates for Killink CSV Editor.  He is right.  There have been far too few updates recently and I have no one to blame but myself.  I started explaining the situation in my reply to dutchguru but decided a blog posting is also in order.

Labor Mate 1.3 in the App Store

I’m happy to announce Labor Mate 1.3 is finally in the iPhone App Store as of last night.  The review time took longer than the time needed to make the code changes, but that was partly my fault.  I introduced a bug that crashed the app.  Luckily the crashing version of the app was rejected by Apple so that release never made it to users’ iPhones and iPod touches.

I received an email from Apple today saying that the recent submission of Labor Mate 1.3 has been rejected due to a crash. The crash apparently is happening during the launch. Now of course I went through extensive testing with the app prior to submitting it and my debug and release builds never crashed. That was until today.

Status Update on Killink CSV Editor Version 2

Work on the new major release for Killink CSV Editor continues.  It is taking me much longer than expected but that seems common in the world of software development.  Having support for very large files, i.e., file size up to 4 GB, in version 2 is important to me and that is the reason for the delay.  The number one reported problem with version 1 is “out of memory” errors which is caused by working with large files.  My goal is to eliminate this error with version 2.
