iPhone Cigar App RELEASED!

[Veritas]

This is the first app that I have paid for and I must say that I'm very pleased with it. Great job, Ken.

Are there any plans for an archive of "smoked cigars?" I don't know the mechanics of the code, so I don't know if this would be a colossal update or a simple tweak. I'm envisioning something that takes the current date/time from when I click "Smoke one" and puts it into a list of cigars that are forever a memory. This might be outside the intent of this app, but would be a welcome addition.

I like this idea, also.

On the topic of amount paid, what happens if I buy more of a cigar that I already have but pay a different amount? Does the new amount overwrite the old or is there a weighted average?

If you add it as a new cigar (rather than just changing the #) you can have two or more different prices. They can show as purchased from different locations as well as dates.
I like this because it helps me remember that I paid $x from one location and $y from another.

I guess that would work, it's just that I don't know which one ($x or $y) I'm smoking unless they are from my locker at my standard B&M - all NC locker sticks are ones I bought there.

That is handy for comparing prices from more than one source. It is also a good method for keeping up with how long a particular cigar has been aging. I think I'll use it. I will also try to keep multiples separated so I know their age.

A more complete smoking notes capability is still high on the list. One of these days soon, I'll actually get it done

Right now if you have Avo 80ths (A) and you enter more Avo 80ths (B) A and B are separate animals as they should be. When A is instantiated its its own entity. There is no function for "What did I pay for all my Avo 80ths and what is the average price for them?"

That function I'd guess is probably a new version of the app since there would be other rudimentary math functions you'd prolly want to expose as part of it, in fact it could be a separate app tho I'd personally prefer if it was the same app and he raised the price a bit.

Think of it as rows in a spread sheet with each row representing an entry.

Well, with the new version I'm working on, you'll be able to export (via email) your whole inventory into a spreadsheet, and you can calculate 'til your heart's content
