Most of you by now have figured out that I slam Apple's integrated Apps if they are not compatible with other smartphones (iMessage) or for refusing to allow 3rd party App integration (Safari as default).

 

However my 2° Account Management app for Windows Phone 7 got shot down today. (I know the code language for WP7 but not iOS and uni paid my microsoft developer fee /shrug) You see, it allows a GUI method to buying and removing 2° Value Packs. Apparently including a method to add and remove a Voice pack is against policies.

 

At least Apple rejects apps for decent reasons. In other words I forgot Microsoft bought Skype derp

 

/facepalm

Long live iOS!

Hi Chris,

Sorry the app didn't fly – sounds like a great idea…. I know that my mother has a few problems buying a data pack via 2 Degrees on her iPad – I can't find any apps that would help out… any suggestions… or maybe you could learn to write it for iOS?

Cheers,

Mike

I hope to learn to code iOS over the xmas varsity break. At the moment i am just making use of prior knowledge and familiar tools. 

 

If the issue is forgetting text pack things then save "Buy 10txt" as a contact with number 233. That way if you need the txt pack then just type the contacts name into the message and send. Save similar contacts for data packs
