iPhone App

[twarnick]

Hi, is there a plan to build an iPhone app too?

[johannesjo]

There once was a guy intending to have a look at it, but I haven't heard back from him. So no. Currently not. But if someone would volunteer I am all for it! :)

I have no experience when it comes to building apps for iOS but I am sure that it would be fairly easy and I'm definitely willing to try to do it as I could use it as well!

[johannesjo]

That's great to hear! Let me know if you have any questions!

Just in case, would any of this web into mobile app be helpful?

Regrettably, my code understanding is mostly copy-paste, with a smattering of Command Line and Applescript, I just noticed references to json, which also comes up in references to SuperProductivity local file saves.

@johannesjo have you considered migrating to Flutter to have a single codebase for all platforms? It would probably be a lot of work, but just mentioning it as a possibility.

[johannesjo]

Since there have been some technical suggestions. I think the best approach would be to use a webframe like it is implemented for the android app and basically run the web app in that container. We could also use capacitor, but even that should not be necessary. Shouldn't be too complicated, as there isn't to much native coding to do.

I'm super interesting on this topic!

Also interested in this - productivity apps thrive then you can add tasks from everywhere

Not a developer - but this works pretty well to act as an app in place of an official one:

This works... except, no sync or local file save. For sync, I tried a simple Webdav server app on the mac. Perhaps its a CORS issue but the Webdav server doesn't have any options to address that, if so. (I can "sync" via the macOS app and the Webdav server, but on the iPhone side or any web browser sync turns up errors, "bad gateway", "timed out", etc..)
