Starting work on bodyCal2 (2.0) – BMI and BMR calculator and tracker for the iPad

bodyCal2 – a body mass index (BMI) and basal metabolic rate (BMR) calculator and tracker for the iPad officially went on sale on iTunes App Store 2 days ago, and version 1.0.1 was released fairly quickly so as to deal with a couple of bugs….

So, what next? What should be put in to version 2.0 of bodyCal2?

Version 1.0 was developed quickly as part of a ‘seven days, one app’ challenge, and as of writing is still only one of 5 Apps on the iPad store that can calculate BMI, and the only App that can calculate BMR (see earlier post). However, version 1.0 was never viewed as the final version of the App. It was a version to get in to the iPad App store for launch. Work has now started (actually it started a couple of days ago) on version 2.0.

I will keep a journal of the development of 2.0, but I won’t release the posts until version 2.0 has been submitted to the App store and improved. The reason for this is I don’t want to promise features that I don’t/can’t finally deliver…. However, I will be twitting about programming ‘events’ as they occur, so keep an eye on Twitter.
