Apple is Rejecting Its Own Advice

November 30, 2009 6 comments

We’re not sure where to begin, so we’ll pick up the story from our last post: Static Analysis Rejection? That post has been referenced in a number of other articles about App Store rejections by RogueSheep, Daring Fireball, and App Rejections, just to name a few. We’ve had many e-mail conversations with concerned developers asking [...]

Static Analysis Rejection?

November 7, 2009 6 comments

Mobile Orchard pointed to a post by Joe Hewitt (developer of the Facebook iPhone app) where he mentions that Apple may be using a static analyzer to help review app submissions. If that’s the case, it might explain our recent rejections. Here’s the boilerplate response that we’ve (unfortunately) come to expect each time we submit [...]

Flurry Analytics

We’ve added anonymous Flurry Analytics to both 3D Camera and 3D Camera Lite as of version 1.3. Our hope is that the data will give us insight into app usage patterns and help us prioritize upcoming features and fixes. While we’ve only been collecting analytics for about a month, this data represents 23,190 unique users [...]

Version 1.3 of both 3D Camera and 3D Camera Lite have been approved by Apple and are now available in the App Store. Be sure to take a moment and read about the new 1.3 features. Of course, the biggest addition to version 1.3 is the return of the (much requested) translucent camera overlay. Apple [...]

September 17, 2009 1 comment

We submitted 3D Camera version 1.3 to Apple today, and hopefully, it will be approved and available in the App Store within the next week or two (fingers crossed). Because it shares the same codebase, we also submitted an updated version of 3D Camera Lite, the free version of the app. Note that these releases [...]

Apple just approved our 3D Camera 1.2.1 update, and it’s now available in the App Store. This is a minor update that adds a few user-requested features: The introduction screen now has a “More” button that makes it easy to access the 4-minute 3D Camera Video Tour and online documentation. We’ve added the ability to [...]

Macworld Reviews 3D Camera

September 8, 2009 No comments yet

Jason Snell of Macworld posted a review of 3D Camera for iPhone today and gave it 4 1/2 mice out of 5 (which ranks it somewhere between “Very Good” and “Superior”). Of course, we’re flattered by his kind words and thrilled that the review will introduce us to a brand new audience of 3D enthusiasts. [...]

iPhone Camera Shutter Animation

For our 3D Camera Video Tour, we needed to show how to use the iPhone camera to take two photos, but we didn’t want to simply point a video camera at the screen and press record. The reflective iPhone screen makes it very difficult to get a high quality recording. We decided to use the [...]

3D Camera Video Tour

August 24, 2009 2 comments

We just published a short 4-minute video introduction to 3D Camera for iPhone. While not as comprehensive as the 3D Camera Manual, the video is a quick and convenient way to get up-to-speed with version 1.2 of the app (both the full and lite editions). The first half covers capturing, aligning, viewing, and sharing 3D [...]
