It took 11 hours and 10 minutes to code, and 11 days to get Apple to give it the thumbs up, but light.APP is now live in the App Store!

It's a simple app, and you can get all the information you would ever want about it from one or both of these links, so check 'em out:
The light.APP general information page
Details of a social experiment (or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Thing That Was Easy To Code)

After reading this article, I was motivated to conduct an experiment:
http://www.macrumors.com/2010/07/08/developer-earns-nearly-1400-in-one-d...

My experiment isn't, "can I make $1,400 in one day from ad revenue?" (although I wouldn't complain). My experiment started like this:
"I wonder how much time would actually be required to make an app like that?" The answer: 11 hours, 10 minutes. Including all art work, programming and application submission (and significant improvements). Click "Read more" below.

Apple has approved TimeLogger version 2.1.0, which addresses several important issues in iOS3.2 (iPad) and iOS4 (iPhone and iPod Touch).

If you are running a previous version of TimeLogger, please open iTunes and update today.

If you have questions, don't hesitate to ask.

More information is available in the user guide, which is available here:

[UPDATE] TimeLogger and TimeLogger Free version 2.1.0 are now live on the App Store. You should upgrade as soon as possible, and be sure to let us know if you are still having problems. [/UPDATE]

Several TimeLogger users have written last night and this morning to mention that they cannot un-pause a paused timer after upgrading to iOS4 and/or they are experiencing crashes. Click "Read more" below to see the entire response...

New versions of TimeLogger and TimeLogger Free have been submitted to Apple for approval.

IMPORTANT: TimeLogger Free will now require iOS 4. For those who have iPads, sorry, you won't be able to use the new version of TimeLogger Free on the iPad until Apple releases iOS 4 for iPad this Fall. If you want the new features of TimeLogger on your iPad before then, you will need to purchase the paid version.

Here is what will be new in TimeLogger 2.1.0:
* Backup and recovery moved to iTunes and is much more reliable

We have added a couple of ways to make it easier to communicate with us and to know what's going on in the development and release of our Apps.

Just click the Facebook or Twitter links at the top of any page on our web site. Once on Facebook, click the "Like" button to become a fan. On Twitter, click "Follow."

Version 1.2.0 of all three iPad Apps have now been approved and are available for purchase or free update in iTunes or in the App Store application on your iPad.

To recap the new features:
✩ Export/backup all entries through iTunes
✩ Password recovery through email
✩ Addition of Navigation Styles, giving you the ability to change the way you navigate your journal
✩ Option to display more information about the time of journal entries and updates
✩ Option to use "None" as a background
✩ Waiting indicator on startup for long-running tasks such as file imports

Version 1.2.0 of dailyVerse Journal and bibleStudy.APP have been approved and are now available in iTunes. We are still waiting for approval of journal.APP version 1.2.0. Our guess is that it is taking a little longer to approve because it contains an in-app purchase.

If you don't know what version 1.2.0 adds, check out our post here.

For those of you noticing a difference between the documentation and actual features of our iPad apps, click here to read our forum post on the topic.

The bottom line is that our documentation was released prior to Apple's approval of the app updates. We expect for the approval to clear very soon. Be sure to follow us on Twitter if you want status updates pushed to your phone or iPad.
