Pebble Watchface - Chinese Calligraphy Clock

I got my Pebble Smart Watch on Sunday. I really like it since I can read SMS and see incoming calls from the watch. On Monday, I moved on to play with the sample code for 2 days. On Wednesday, I published a Chinese calligraphy watch face on Pebble Store. The Pebble development environment is well designed. It is quite easy to pick up if you have C language background. Next, I will try to create educational game. Drop me a note if you have some ideas :-)

This is the designed Pebble Watchface in 168 x 144 pixels.


You can download this Watchface (Chinese Clock) into your Pebble watch using iPhone or Android.  I like the watch and the programming environment.  Now, I am looking for ideas to create educational games :-)

This is my Chinese Clock Watchface on Pebble Appstore

Spelling 1942 - a fun way to learn spelling

Spelling 1942, provides a fun way to learn spelling.  Every school gives out spelling list.  Your children can learn the school spelling list in this app and reinforce the learning by playing game this simple game.

So far it supports English, Chinese and Malay language.  It should be able to support any language in iPhone Siri.  Feel free to drop me a request on a new language if you are not sure.

Listen to pronunciation and shoot the word
During the game play, the children will listen to the pronunciation and shoot the correct word.  The children will gain and lose points depending on whether he shoots the right words.

Spelling List Picker
The spelling list is organised into Country, School, Level hierarchy.  First you will choose a country, followed by a school and a level.  You can then choose the spelling list available.

Words in a spelling list
In this screen, you can do revision on the words in the spelling list.

If you cannot find your children school's spelling list, you may download iLoveSpelling and start creating spelling list for your own children.
Download iLoveSpelling
Link to iLoveSpelling in Settings
The spelling list that you created will also benefits the other children since it will be shared to all.  iLoveSpelling App was launched in 2012 and it benefits my sons and other children.  It provides an easy channel to share spelling list among parents and students.  One of my neighbour loves it since the mother doesn't read Chinese and the father who know Chinese language always help to enter the Chinese spelling list in iLoveSpelling App.  This way, the mother can still provide the coaching for her son.

Kopi C App is upgraded for iOS 7

This is the very first experimental app that I created.  It's finally a good time to revisit this app.  I have clean up the items so that all items have no price since the price was never accurate before.  It is quite easy to recompile and publish the old app.  Now the latest version 2.2.1 of Kopi C App supports both iOS6 and iOS7.

Supporting iOS 7 with Three Quarter Tank Version 1.2.1

iOS 7 screens are amazing clean and elegant.

It took me a while to get used to the new Xcode 5.0 today. It's not too difficult but I got to read through the iOS 7 UI Transition Guideline to understand how to support both iOS 6 and 7.  I will support iOS 6 for limited period of 6 months.  After which, I will only support iOS 7.
