Hello Everyone,
So iOS Public Beta is already out. We tested most of our apps and we can confirm that all of them work normally.
Please tell us if you are having issue with apps.
Coordinates 4.5 : World Magnetic Model Calculator
Hello,
It’s been a week with a lot of updates
Coordinates 4.5 adds three more features! (I would call this version 5.0 if I could polish its design a bit more).
World Magnetic Model Calculator!
It’s now possible to calculate these information related to geomagnetic fields
D = Declination (Degree)
I = Inclination (Degree)
X = North Intensity (nT)
Y = East Intensity (nT)
H = Horizontal Intensity (nT)
Z = Vertical Intensity (nT)
F = Total Intensity (nT)
GV = Magnetic Grid Variation (Degree)
Press Magnet icon on the main page to view these information
Press on Altitude or Date to make changes to these value
Select WMM model to use in setting menu (WMM2015 or WMM2015v2)
2. View more coordinates at once
Press Number 2 icon on the main view to turn on secondary coordinates banner.
Select coordinates type as you wish.
3. View transformed coordinates on map
In transform coordinates menu, all coordinates type will be available to view on map.
However, it’s not possible to save pin as this time.
4. Performance Boost
We removed redundancy calculations from the app. It should works faster on slower devices.
Instruction will be updated soon.
Introducing Elevation 3.0
Hello,
I’m delighted to introduce you latest update to Elevation app.
Elevation 3.0
There are changes in all three modes
Get Elevation
We switched to new server which is hosted by us. Improved performance expected
Get Elevation Range
Now it’s possible to measure elevation range in two or more sections
Lines color will reflect to height of that particular spot
Also switched to new server
Get Elevation from GPS
Now plot circles on the map and change color depends on elevation differences between points
Tap on a point to recall previous elevation value
Subscribe to remove ads will come soon.
More update: 14 Jun 2019 - More discontinues
Hello,
I’m delighted to announce so many new updates happening this week.
SunMap version 3.9 is now available with option to remove ads. At $0.99 per month, which is half the price of all other map apps.
Coordinates version 4.4 is also available with save/load/renaming features.
We finally completed writing instruction for Coordinates app. You can check it here
Beginning next week, we will migrate Elevation app data source to our own server to reduce latency and cost. We ordered new dedicated server to provide data just for this purpose.
We also decided to discontinue more older apps so we can only focus on the most important one.
As a toast of farewell here are the list of app which already or soon to be removed from the App Store.
ThaiElevation - Elevation app Thai edition. We made this app for Thai flood 2011. We discussed with Apple on the existence of this App. We have to let this app go for good since Elevation app now have Thai localization.
DrawArea
We wrote this app along side with Distance app. DrawArea app provide area calculation just be drawing shape on the map.
However, Distance 5.0 now has area calculation as well as using higher precision algorithm. We decided to discontinue this DrawArea app and suggest everyone to migrate to Distance app instead.
MorseTap
We made this app to catch-up with Google’s April fool days joke on April, 2012. Which they provide Morse code keyboard for all devices.
We managed to get this app feature on Appadvice as well!
https://appadvice.com/appnn/2012/04/quirky-app-of-the-day-morse-tap
Unitext
We made a mistake using unicode character as the app name. People can’t find this app! We made this app before custom keyboard is available on the iOS. Just for fun!
Antipodes
Just a map tunneling tool. Nothing else
Population
Calculate population within circle. We use this app as an engine for BlastSim app.
That’s all for this week. See you again next time!
Introducing Distance 5.0
Hello,
It has been raining all week here in Bangkok. Since we can’t really go out, we had more time to work on more App updates.
Today, we’re proud to present you a new version of my very first app ever.
Welcome to a completely new Distance app.
Version 5.0
Here are list of new features:
Redesigned User Interface
We replace toggle button (Measure/Draw) to a switch. Which hopefully will be much more easy to understand. You may notice that the app has two switch instead of one, that’s because………
2. Area measurement
Distance app now includes area measurement feature just like DrawArea. We use new algorithm which is far more accurate than what we provided in DrawArea app.
Coefficient feature works with area unit as well as distance unit.
Note: Since we provided area measurement within Distance app, DrawArea app will soon be discontinued and remove from the App Store. Please migrate to Distance app as soon as possible. We will also push a new update which will remind every user to migrate to Distance app instead.
Instruction has been updated to reflect this update.
We hope you will enjoy this new update!
If you don’t own this app already. Please get the app here.

Large readout of all coordinates formats, I think it will be great for anyone who use the app on the field. (within May)
Completed! As shown above. I will polish UI afterward
Elevation
Merging ThaiElev app with Elevation app. Beginning May, ThaiElev will be permanently removed.
Discontinuation update for ThaiElev apps has been released.

That’s all for now

Decided to kill most of older apps
Hello,
Here is some update regarding my apps collection.
Today, I remove 15 apps from my developer account. I stopped release new updates to most of these app since 2016. Removing these app would make my account a lot less cluttered.
Since I already left this app go for good :( I would like to share some stories behind these apps. :)
Missing Melody!
Jump the music
This was my group project for Game Development during my 3rd year undergrad in 2011?. I got an A. So it was worth it. Originally released as a paid app.
It was featured at Raywenderlich back in 2012: https://www.raywenderlich.com/2918-readers-app-reviews-may-2012
KuroKuroJump
Another Doodle jump clone
I made this app using the same engine as MissingMelody. It is another doodle jump clone with character drawn by my University friend who is also an artist for Missing Melody! This game however was simply my personal project.
Additap
Number Tapping Game
Using engine from Digitap. My first ever iOS App. Tap sum of numbers which float on the screen.
Featured at AppAdvice: https://appadvice.com/game/app/additap/583977973
TouchPerSec
I have no idea why I wrote this app back then
UnlockMe
Number Guessing Game. Simple game to unlock 3 digits padlock
This game was breaking some of design rules. I’m very surprised it survive until today
ColorClock
RGB Hex Clock
Just a slowly transitioning background clock.
PassMaker
Password Generator
Simple password randomiser tool. Way before Lastpass or dashlane even exist.
Decide
Rub device’s screen to reveal hidden number. English version of joke Thai lotto app.
ColorDiffer
Tapping color game
This app was fairly new comparing to others app here. I decided to kill it as well because I wasn’t able to attract enough install base. It seems like there are many web version of the game everywhere.
Simple Protractor
Protractor with a quirk
It was one of my first first apps (No 7th to be exact). Put a thin sheet of paper to let light shine through paper as use it as protractor.
FingerRuler
Draw to measure
It was a funny app. This app was nothing but a grid on the screen. Then user draw a line with finger to measure length of the line.
This app is a reason why Distance app exists today.
BackgroundMaker
Random Pattern generator
This app is a successor of CircleMaker. $1 app which has similar feature.
PaintCanvas
Simple doodle app
RandomCanvas HD
These two apps are plain similar. Drawing app with nothing but one type of brush.
DrawOnMap
As the title said
I wrote so many map apps. However, I’m not really proud of this app because it can’t really do anything much apart from drawing simple line on the map. So I decided to remove it from my account as well.
That was a long list in my opinion, but I need to move on to make my main apps even better. Although many of these apps I remove today aren’t great enough to be left available for download. But it was quite a great journey and I did learnt a lot along the way. That’s why I’m still here today as an app developer.
Have a good day
