Announcing Erntefrisch / Seasons
After two months spending my spare time for developing my first iPhone app I finally submitted Seasons (Erntefrisch in German) to the iPhone App Store.
Seasons/Erntefrisch is a tool giving you advice when buying fresh fruits and vegetables. The application comes with more than 130 fruits and vegetables and includes season data for local seasons as well as for import seasons. Photos of each entry and a short descriptive text are included as well.
The data is accessible via different screens. The “Now” screen shows fruits that currently do have a starting, ending or permanent season. Furthermore there is the monthly overview, list by category and search view.
Currently the season data is only available for Germany/Central Europe. But we are working hard on getting everything localized including different regions. We will provide the localized data with an update of the application.
It was a lot of work but also a lot of fun developing the app. Actually the main task was not the software development itself. In fact, getting all the information about fruits and vegetables was a lot more work. We have to thank all the traders at Markthalle Kassel which were kind enough to allow us to take pictures of there products and telling us a lot of interesting things about fruits, vegetables and agriculture.
For now we are waiting for Apple approving Seasons/Erntefrisch.
