iPhone Conversion Application

I was recently contracted to develop a conversion application for the iPhone called “All in One Converter”, with a focus on business users. This was a fun project in that:

I chose to develop a generalized XML processing engine that would allow the creation and deployment of new conversion sets on the fly.
we developed a proxy server to feed currency updates
I developed a full calculator stack that runs inline with the converter
I created a flexible “favorites” or bookmarking mechanism
we “invented” the Zone Scheduler, which helps schedule meeting across time zones

Attached are some screenshots. Should be in the iTunes store shortly.

I just finished a contract app called “BizFinder” that searches a set of business directories based on the location of the user. This app required extensive XML processing and a number of REST operations, integration with Google Maps (both remote server and local app), and use of the onboard GPS capability.

This is version 1- version 2 will have a host of new features and user friendly options.

Here are some screen shots (more to follow):
