AppCooker on sale for a very limited time

OK, first the disclaimer: App Cooker creators are buying all my ad space on Building iPhone Apps. That being said, I'm a delighted user of App Cooker, a mockup and wireframing tool for iOS application design. The app is on sale for a very limited time at 14.99$ instead of 39.99$. Go get it now. This is THE deal.

App Cooker updated with really nice refinements

This week came with a nice surprise: an App Cooker update was ready to roll on my iPad. Release 0.9.95 is out and brings a lot to the table. First, the new iPad's Retina Display is now fully supported. App Cooker which is really well designed visually is even more beautiful on the new iPad. Nice. Next, a lot of refinements:

• Link tools is simpler to use.
• Defining new colours attributes and saving them for reuse is easier too.
• Updated Stroke tool to make it more like other standard graphic design apps.
• Images imported into prototypes can be cropped.
• Updated icons for social networks.

This is the fourth important update of App Cooker. Each iteration brings bug fixes, refinements and add a few welcomed features. Don't be afraid of Hot App Factory giving this app a weird release number. Version 0.9.95 could be numbered release 1.4 as this application is still one of the most well designed and feature complete on the App Store for building iOS application prototypes.

One thing still bugs me about App Cooker: I still don't know what will be the top secret feature that Hot App Factory will bring in the near future release. Supposedly, this feature will change the way we make mockups forever. Mmmm sound good to me.

Anyone using web based application creation tools like http://www.radicalflow.com ? I would be interested to know more and hear about your experience. Thanks.

Love doing graphic design - tools I use

These days I'm working on the main screen of my Tumblr photo browser. I'm delighted by Sketch and Pixelmator. I'm using Sketch to the general screen layout and when I'm not able to create an object with it, I'm using Pixelmator and this does the trick.

AppifyWP little brother: AppifyWP LaunchPad

Looking to create a promotional web site for your soon to be released iOS application? There something new from the maker of the excellent WordPress Theme: AppifyWP and it is rightly called AppifyWP LaunchPad. There is a demo of the WordPress theme available here: http://lpdemo.appifywp.com/. The theme allows you to put screen shots and let people sign for a newsletter once this app is launched (using a builtin MailChimp widget). Once your application is on the App Store, you'll be able to buy the AppifyWP theme and upgrade keeping all relelated informations in place. This is cool, really. The best thing, this WordPress theme is free. Cool.

I'm personnaly using the paid version to promote Ultimate Password Manager. Have a look.

TestFlight keeps getting better

Just found out today that TestFlight improved their web site this week. They split the web site functionality in four sections: Dashboard, Builds, People and Support. I love the new organization: it is easier to grasp and work with.
