A holter monitor is a device that records the wearer's heart activity for the period in which it is worn (usually 24 hours). Someone might be advised to wear one if they have cardiac issues and their doctor wants to get a better idea of the patients heart activity. They're about the size of a match box and have about 6 leads coming from them which are placed on various locations on the wearer's torso. While wearing one, the patient has to record (usually on a form given by the lab providing the holter) their activities and symptoms during the time they have the holter on.
Holter Buddy doesn't make wearing the holter monitor any more comfortable, but it it takes the pain out of the note-taking. The user can make a tracker by tapping the + icon in the top right of the screen. They can give the tracker a name, record it's ID# (if the lab assigned it one), and select the date and time at which the test began and will end. The app will also alert the user when the test is complete. With the tracker created, they simply have to tap the big red button and a screen will pop up allowing the user to record what they were doing, at what time they were doing it, and any symptoms they had.
Tapping on a tracker's row will bring up the history screen, where the user can see all the events they have recorded for a tracker. From the history screen they can also print off (or save to pdf via iOS's built in system) a report for the lab.
Back at the home screen, the user can fill in their profile information so it will show up on the report. I've put 3 extra data fields for anything else the user wants to share, like any medications they're on.
The app is available on the app store for free here: Holter Buddy

TimeSince App
I just completed my second app: TimeSince
This is a simple app that will allow you to create trackers for incidents or events. Think of it like those signs you see in workplaces that say "No incident for: " and then a number of days. When an event occurs, simply tap the large red button, you can choose the time and date (if different from that very instant), add a note if need be, and save it. The app will then start counting the number of seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and so on since the most recent incident. It will also display the average time between incidents.
To add an incident to a different tracker, simply tap the information disclosure (the "i") button before tapping the large red button.
To rearrange the trackers, tap the "Edit" button in the top left corner of the screen.
To delete a tracker, swipe left on the tracker and choose "Delete"
Tapping a row will take you to a list of all the incidents, along with their time, date, and notes. Swiping left on any row will let you delete it.
And that's it! It is a simple app, so it will be available for free on the app store, just as soon as apple releases Xcode 7.3 final.
It turns out that apps made and compiled in beta versions cannot be uploaded to the app store.
