It's been while since my last post and that's because I don't really have any updates to report. There have just been several small minor, not even worth blogging about updates.
Further down the line there will be a decent sized update for Scorecard Pro. It's gonna add more holes to golf for courses that are longer that 18 holes. I'm planning on extending it to 36 holes and an option to create a course with a custom amount of holes. Also, a new keyboard will be implemented (a number pad with a negative sign). In addition, I'm gonna try and come up with a better way of adding players to a game. I've been getting complaints that it is confusing and/or not obvious.
In other news, I'll be attending WWDC 2012. It's Apples developer conference where I will be learning all the latest tips and tricks to create an awesome app and help improve app performance. I'm super excited for this conference. It's gonna be a new experience where I'll have the opportunity to learn from the people who wrote the software themselves. This gives me the chance to bring you awesome new features in my apps.
Lastly, I've been working under the company APPerfection LLC with a couple of my friends and we've come up with and recently released a new iOS and Android app called BlueBox - File Transfer. BlueBox - File Transfer on iOS is an awesome app that allows you to transfer photos, videos, and contacts from one Apple device to another Apple device using bluetooth technology. It's fast, reliable, safe, and FREE. Check it out now on the Apple App Store for more details. BlueBox on Android is far more advanced than the iOS version. What it does is automatically sync all your data between your android devices, again using bluetooth technology. It does this in the background without you having to do anything. It's super simple to use, it's a powerful app, and you won't find anything else like it on the Android market place.

Car Suggestions
I must say, this suggestion system is working out very well. I'm trying to update the list regularly to keep up on all the suggestions. I'm updating the list about once a week if you were curious.
For the most part, people seem to be submitting the full screen images which is great. However, I've noticed a problem with submitting suggestions on the iPad. Since Google Images doesn't allow full screen for tablets (as of this writing) it's not submitting the right data so I have no idea which image was submitted unlike the iPhone submissions. I should have an update out to fix the iPad submissions soon. I just have to figure out how to fix it first.
Lastly as note not related to suggestions, if you have ANY problems with ANY of my apps, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let me know. I'm happy to help in any way that I can, I'm quick to respond, and I'd like to keep my customers happy. And as always, please let me know if you have ANY Comments, Questions, or Suggestions. Email me at jjring31@gmail.com, just leave a comment any where on this blog, or look me up on Twitter at @ringapps.
UPDATE: Good news and bad news. Good news, I fixed the iPad suggestion problem. Bad news, the fix is to use Bing image search. Until Google offers a full size image view for tablets, Bing will have to work. Just remember, this is only for searching for images on the iPad. All other searches still use Google. Also, the next update will use Google Analytics to anonymously track usage data. This will simply let me know what cars people are looking at the most and help in the priority that pictures are added to the app. NO PERSONAL DATA WILL BE TRACKED!

Classic Car Update v x.5
I just submitted the new update to Apple tonight so it will hopefully be available by the end of the week or early next week.
First, the new update will fix issues people were having trying to get photos from the server.
Next, this is a major update in the way that pictures are displayed to you. To start, an internet connection *WILL* be *REQUIRED* to view any photos. Photos will NO longer be downloaded to your device and stored for offline usage. However if you want to save an image to your camera roll, just hold your finger down on the photo and a popup will ask you if you want to save it to your camera roll.
This new method of not downloading pictures to the device makes it a lot easier to give you access to more photos. So expect to see a lot more photos available.
Also, if a photo is available, it will be automatically displayed. If a photo is not available, it gives you the option to search the internet for the photo of the car. And if you find a good photo of it, you can suggest it so that I will look it over and approve it. That way somebody else won't have to look on the internet for the same photo, the photo you suggest would just show up.
Lastly, you can now quickly and easily search the internet for more details about a car simply by scrolling down to the bottom of the details table and click the link at the bottom to search for more details.
If you have any comments, questions, or suggestions, please don't hesitate to email me at jjring31@gmail.com or simply post a comment somewhere on this blog. Also, I would greatly appreciate it if you would take a minute out of your day to rate or review my app.
Thanks.
