This iPhone app is a really basic app I created for my InfoVis course, made available as an Xcode Project (iOS SDK 4.3). For one of my chosen visualization projects, I chose to record the time spent for each part of my commute to and from school by transit. It started to become inconvenient using a combination of the stopwatch app on my iPhone and a notebook to record the times. Thus I created this little app in a few hours which should pay off later on when it gets cold.
You can retrieve the data by plugging your iPhone to your computer and download a csv through iTunes' file sharing.
- All the events (names) that get recorded are hardcoded in the app. I made it hardcoded to expedite the completion of something I could use the next day. It would be nice if you could configure what transfers and buses or trains you take during your trip.
- While multitasking is supported (which is important), if a timer is started and you pop the view controller to go back to the first tab, everything gets lost. If you choose to use this app in its current state, leave it alone while the timer is running.
- Jeff Lamarche for the MCFileAppend Objective-C category on NSData for easy appending to external files
- Drew McCormack for the Parsing Extensions on NSString, making it easier to work with data from CSVs
- Joseph Wain for the awesome free glyphish icon set (used for the two items in tab bar)
