My first Independent Watch App - AstroNote (TestFlight Beta)

Hey everyone,

I finally had the guts to sign up for an account here to share my work. I'm trying to write a few apps for the Apple Watch, and here is my first one.

It is a small independent app called AstroNote - it comes with a REST API that lets you send (push) notifications to yourself. My MVP is pretty basic but I think I can do some cool features that set it apart from existing competition.

I chose to write this for the Apple Watch because ... I love my watch! And I think independent applications may have an interesting future. WatchOS is pretty basic right now, and very limited, but I think in a few more years it will be its own platform, not needing an iPhone at all.

I am pretty close to tagging my code 1.0, but I still have a ton to do in terms of supporting websites, documentation, landing page. Who knew those things would almost take almost more time than hacking code.

Give it a try and let me know what you think.
