Summary
This chapter was way more exciting than expected! A reminders app is absolutely not quite as impressive as Angry Birds, but, making use of the location features of a mobile device made it a little more novel. Along the way we dabbled with these things:
Reading and writing data to the special
documents
folderUse of pickers for straightforward lists, dates, and time
Reading the current location of the device
Setting up of local notification events
In the best of cases, you can manage to make a mobile app in a few hours or days, but there is quite a lot that goes on before you can submit the app to the various app stores. Sounds like a good topic for the next chapter!
