Presenting at Melbourne Cocoaheads Tonight
I'm presenting a talk tonight at Melbourne Cocoaheads (Google Group).
The topic is Apple's iAd framework, including how to add them to your project, a handful of things to remember about using iAds and an overview my first hand experiences with Seoul City Metro as an iAd supported app on the App Store.
You can find the source code for the demo I'm presenting over at git hub and the slides are below. The demo code (JCAdSupportedNavController) is an open source project I plan on updating in coming weeks with more advertising providers.
Recent iOS Version statistics from Delhi City Metro
Not long after iOS 4.0 was released I pushed a small update to Delhi City Metro to keep track of some basic (anonymous) user statistics. I'm keen to gauge the audience of any specific iOS 4 features I might consider adding and now that I've been able to visualise these, I thought I'd share them here.
To add a geographic angle to the iOS usage statistics you can see in the second graph that the majority of Delhi City Metro users are from India.
Several weeks after the launch of iOS4 the split between iOS 4 and iOS 3 is 4.x 64% and 3.1.x 31% with iOS 3.2 at 4%. (Delhi iOS Statistics 13-26/8/2010)
Overall Delhi Sale Statistics
Delhi Metro is enjoying #1 in Navigation in India (Updated)
I'm very proud to announce that my fourth iPhone application and third city in the City Metro Apps Delhi City Metro has had a successful first week in the app store; it is now ranked as the #1 paid navigation app in the Indian App Store. Although the raw sales data show the Indian marketplace is incredibly small compared to the US, Australia or even Korea the statistic alone is quite exciting!
It was hard work gathering accurate GPS coordinates, route length and timetables for the Delhi Metro - but the most complete version of the data available is included with the app and I have developed a high resolution custom map too.
The Delhi metro is moving at an incredible pace, so I expect to be updating it quite often.
There's a temporary webpage with some screenshots over at delhi.citymetroapps.com and I'm updating the @delhimetroapp twitter feed with minor bits and pieces.
Delhi City Metro is available on the App Store .
27 August update, here's the navigation statistics for Delhi City Metro since it's launch, now that it's been about two months
Approved in less than 48 hours!
I just got emailed this morning that my quick point release for Seoul City Metro has been approved. That was less than 48 hours from submission. Call me impressed!
It's a total change of pace when a new binary can be pushed to customers that quickly. My "What's new in this update" stated that it was just two small bug fixes, I wonder if that had any influence on the review team that saw the initial 1.1 release only 5 days ago.
Anyway, a win! Seoul City Metro Lite is also now in review.
