Created the logo!
by Ricardo CruzLast weekend I've bought the Apple Developer Program license, as I'm already happy with how the first version of the app will look like, so I've reviewed the latest Human Interface Guidelines for desktop applications, as my previous logo was a temporary one.
It is funny how much doing the chores can boost your creativity: In my case, my desktop application is all about completing little tasks, and I think there is no better metaphor for this than a checked checkbox, or at least that came into my mind in the middle of cleaning some dishes. The idea also happens to fit perfectly with the new desktop app icon shape, that Apple is pushing us all to follow.
I can't remember the exact phrase, but I've heard the other day in a meeting that there is a lot of complexity involved to create simple things.
I really hope that you can appreciate the depth of simplicity in every corner of this little productivity tool :)
Next steps:
- Build a landing page with its support contact form
- Publish an internal beta prior launching it to the App Store
- Ship it!
