Bug with iOS4 and v1.1

A bug has been reported with iOS4 and Show Me the Mileage.

I have submitted an update to Apple. Never sure exactly when apps are approved. I'll post again when it is available.

The specific problem is the application's state wasn't being persisted when exiting the application. This will cause various crashes when returning to the application.

I apologize for any inconvenience.

Why write yet another mileage log for iPhone?

That is the question my uncle, the serial entrepreneur, asked me when I mentioned I was writing this iPhone application.

He had done a search in the iTunes Store and found ~50 iPhone applications when searching for mileage log and well over 100 iPhone applications when searching for mileage.

So why did I write this mileage log for the iPhone?

It started with me writing Trackometer for runningmap.com another GPS enabled iPhone application.

I'm self employed and I live in northern-ish Canada. So keeping a mileage log with a frozen pen is problematic and I never had a pencil sharpener around when I needed one.

One day, while doing some testing with Trackometer, I realized that it wasn't far from being a mileage log. I asked an artsy/techy friend of mine for some graphics and Show Me the Mileage was born.

The nice thing is that even if I don't sell a lot of this iPhone application I have solved my own pain point.
