FreelanceStation is a Mac time tracker. It was created to be only available for Macs and there was no question about it. But the introduction of macOS Big Sur was a huge indicator that all Apple platforms are going to be integrated and unified. All apps available in iOS for iPhone or iPad would eventually be made available for Mac, and ideally many Mac apps would also be available under iOS, where it makes sense.

This is a quick patch to fix an issue with the menu bar icon. When configured as a counter of tasks, the count did not properly update when marking a task as complete. The issue has been solved.

PopDo 1.4.2 is now available on the Mac App Store for update. This patch improves general usability by allowing lists to be reordered by drag & dropping them above or below other lists and automatically selecting a task when the title or notes fields gain focus. Quick Task now supports flagging by appending !! to the task entry. There are a couple minor UI issues fixed too. All the details are available in the release notes.

This patch release fixes two issues: Void invoices were accounted for when recomputing account balances. The New Task dialog had no help topic assigned. Also the previous app icon was restored.

I have been experimenting with SwiftUI lately as I started working on a new Mac application. This new application I’m working on, which shall go unnamed and uncategorised for the moment, is going to be complex, with a complex UI including many views with sidebars, tables, image views and 3d views. Having no previous experience with SwiftUI, not even doing a simple app nor going through one of the many tutorials available (I’m not going to link any of them as I wouldn’t know where to start), I fully committed myself to doing everything the SwiftUI way (the iOS way for the impatient).

This release adds a “Where to Start” view when opening FreelanceStation, to help new users. Also the user manual was rewritten and available as a PDF file instead of the previous Apple Help format. There are several improvements in the workflow, to make FreelanceStation more flexible, such as making it easier to create tasks and start tracking time. Next releases will further improve the workflow.

PopDo 1.4.1 is now available in the Mac App Store. This patch mainly fixes a UI bug that occurred under certain conditions when deleting a task. Also the user manual is now presented by the Help Viewer, a custom integrated PDF viewer specifically built to show manuals. Previously PopDo would call the system to open the PDF file in the default viewer, which is not ideal. As always, you can purchase PopDo from the Mac App Store or download a free trial.

PopDo has been release to the Mac App Store. It should be available for update in a few hours. This new release features Quick Task, a small window similar to Spotlight Search that allows easy creation of tasks, including setting a reminder and assigning the task to a list: There are several improvements, such as a task counter in place of the menubar icon, task title colorization when the task is overdue, a new sort option to show overdue tasks on top of other tasks in the list, plus other UI improvements.

This PopDo release enables the option to delete lists (a Reminders calendar really) on macOS 10.15.4 and later. It was previously disabled because there was a bug in EventKit that prevented calendars from being removed. This has now been fixed by Apple and so PopDo can now remove lists.
