Currently have the algorithm implemented in Swift, generating pings and notifications, pings persisting via SwiftData. Working on the tagging UI now. Everything very experimental (and slow-going) at the moment. (First time building anything for iOS).

Coding is going slowly. Learning SwiftUI and iOS APIs has been a bit of a mind-bender for me. But today I took a little time to do a character pass on the styling, and I’m currently enjoying this chunky look.

I was just about to post saying that another user has recently asked for feedback on a TagTime implementation here :- [TagTime In The Cloud](https://forum.beeminder.com/t/tagtime-in-the-cloud/11863)

Then i realised that other user was you…

Haha yeah, my thought process was that if this app was fleshed out, we could implement my cloud features with it as well to make everything more universal.

Good luck! I would definitely use this. I do wonder if you’re eventually going to run into any Apple limitations around background apps or notifications. They sometimes have weird opinonated rules about what developers/apps can or can’t do. Good job so far — I’ll stay tuned!
