Thread: iPhone app of all....

Hello again everyone,

Thanks for your support and comments. Some productive and some not

It is my wish in this process that everyone resist getting the cart ahead of the horse with contemplating what may come. Pricing, marketing, release dates, graphic design... these are all way near the end of the process but all very much part of good planning.

At this stage i am focusing on gathering the best info about lucid dreaming and the dream culture and formulating the technology that could enhance and support it. I am at a great disadvantage and foresee the entire process taking a fair amount of time so that i get it right to respect the community and craft. Once the blueprint is finalized i will move into development of the visuals and testing.

I will most likely be selectively choosing those in the community that show the most interest and support to help out with the testing. And then taking the process off the forums with those most qualified in testing until the beta is solid and then putting up teasers closer to release.

Ideal candidates should have at least one of the following: iPhone (3G+) iPod touch, iPad, android 2.0+ etc... (may release iOS product first followed by android shortly after)


I think its important to make clear how i view a project like this.

I am not a hobbyist by profession. I know my username looks young and strange but i am 34yrs old and I have spent that last 15+yrs of my professional career as a freelance designer and business owner working on projects with people such as General Mills, Microsoft, Apple, Panasonic, etc etc... I take my design and concepts very seriously and border on perfectionism. I don't rush and i do not put out inferior product. This truly will be the mother of all dreaming and lucid dreaming apps, or i wont bother.

I plan to honor the community and in exchange for the support from all of you i will be generous with the product release and support in return.

Free kittens for everyone!

I hope everyone has a great valentines and a great week.

Look forward to delivering a great product for you all!

I look forward to seeing what you come up with. Good luck, and happy tinkering!

Make the app so that you don't lock your iPhone, or else you can't use the tiltorometer or record noises made throughout the night!

Not possible.

Well, that isn't a problem for android, it can use the accelerometer at any time, when the app is in the background, the phone is in standby, ect. But for the iPhone you will need to tell the user to set the auto lock time to never.

so this project is dead or what?
