Less is more

This is a slogan that is true for a lot of things, but especially for apps. When I started programming I made a lot of apps for iOS, MacOS, you name it. This was mostly inspired by the need to experiment, to try out new ways of implementing stuff … After every developer conference I could spend weeks and months imaging how to use the new possibilities. In the end, you use the same new tricks that everybody uses.

Everybody knows an app needs to be easy to use and needs to be useful. That turns out to be a difficult task. The basic idea for an app is often implemented in a few weeks, but also creating a great user experience,  is a challenge.

We’ll focus on a few apps which we’ll make as good as we can. The user experience has to be good. We’ll try to make iOS, iPad and MacOS versions of these apps, if possible from the same code-base. Features and functionality will be almost the same on all devices.

So time to focus and clean up.
