Blog migration to http://mydaytodo.com/blog

Hi everyone,

Thank you all those who have been reading my blog here, I appreciate your support over the years. Over the last few months I have migrated my blog to the company website http://mydaytodo.com/blog, all of the previous posts from this blog have been migrated, so you can access them all there.

Why migrate?

This was a long time coming and it makes sense given almost every blog post in the last few years have something to do my startup, My Day To-Do. Anyway have fun reading the new blog, checkout some of our newer posts on that blog


If you find my blog posts useful and want to support me, you can 
  1. Checkout the new website and let us know you have any feedback?
  2. Buy the pro version of My Day To-Do - it's cheaper at this stage
  3. Download the Lite (free) version and unlock one of it's IAPs
  4. Or try our free app I was there that uses artificial intelligence to predict what's in your image
Whichever version you try, if you leave us an App Store review that would really help.

Html5 based widget for an iOS app: Today extension powered by the Ionic framework

At some point the thought of adding a Widget to my iOS app came to mind which was followed by starting work on adding a widget for my app, My Day Todos . Obviously the first step was to learn how to add a Widget to an iOS app and in that learning process I discovered many things about widgets in iOS first of which was a widget in iOS is a an app extension i.e a  Today Extension . While I am still haven't finished working on the widget for my iOS app, I thought I would take some time out and share what I have learned. In this post, I will share a few important tips and provide an example of how to add a Widget to an iOS app and have the widget UI powered by Html5 via  Ionic framework . I added some code to my Github repo, Html5StarterAppWithSwift in order to show how this can be achieved. There are already too many tutorials out on the Web on how to add a Today extension to an iOS app so I won't be including that here. Instead I will focus on sharing some of the useful tip...

Why can't I cancel a local notification in my iOS app?(in Swift)

Prelude I have mentioned the fact that I am working on my first iOS app in a number of my previous posts and as such I face a number of newbie/noob(?) problems. They are not really problems as much as they are simply things that I do not know, for e.g. the following, how do I get the day of the week? where is my string.replaceAll in Swift? knowing which local notification brought my app to foreground ? serving HTML content in an iOS app that works on iOS 7 and above Thankfully, I have managed to make at least one generic solution and contribute it to the community i.e. my open-source Xcode project template( HTML5StarterAppWithSwift ) which you can get from Github . So this post basically describes another very simple problem that I have found a solution to, but I do not fully understand why the problem was occurring in the first place. Introduction As I have mentioned in this post , my iOS app uses local notifications i.e. UILocalNotification   and i...

App update, discovering Protractor(testing) and an Angularjs State machine

So for the last couple of weeks, I have not be able to update my blog or finish a couple of the posts that I started writing. Well, I have...been a bit busy, with some the following things,  Testing my app I have been using the app( iOS ) on my iPhone for the past couple of months now, which is both good and bad. The good thing is I can test it and the bad thing is, I can use it every day. Part of the reason, I started building this app is to have something that I can and like to use everyday and since I am already using it, the incentive to release it is not as high as if it were something that I could not use. Anyway I did make some good progress over the last couple of weeks, like  Delete the app from my iPhone and do a clean install: this did help me find a few simple bugs that would pop-up when the app is first installed GET AN APP ICON, FINALLY! this was a bit of a hurdle and I thanks to Fiverr  and fivercrazyguy , I finally have my app icon. The day job ...
