Back In The Day - Inflation Calculator [Released!]

General (non-technical) New Apps / Works in Progress
#1

My latest app, Back In The Day, has been released for Android and Amazon stores.  iOS coming soon (waiting for approval from Apple).  Links below.

BITD - Back in The Day! Easy to use inflation calculator.

 

Remember your grandfather’s stories of penny candy and nickel matinees? How much would that be in today’s dollars?

 

What is $100.00 today worth in the 1920s?

 

You can find out the answer to these questions, and many more with Back In The Day. This is an easy to use Inflation Calculator. Enter the amount and years to compare. BITD will display the value.

 

Also check out the About screen for a few words of wisdom from the old codger!

Just tried it on iOS. There doesn’t seem to be a way to hide the native keyboard when it pops up. Just wanted to let you know.

PS: are you any relation to Michael Schumacher? (The famous F1 driver)

Thanks for checking it out Gremlin,

The keyboard should disappear when you press the keyboard button on the lower right of the popup.  I’m testing on an iPad 3rd gen… are you getting different results?

No, not related to Michael, although I tend to drive pretty fast!  :slight_smile:

Sorry, some info would have helped.

I tested on a iPhone 5s. I didn’t see a close button, maybe that was just me.

#8

Thanks Gremlin… It does give me an idea to remove the keyboard if the user clicks away… Next update I guess. Anyone else notice this… As I said, on my iPad I do have the option to remove the keyboard with the button that is part of the pop up keyboard. Thanks

Ah, that must be the problem.

The iOS numeric keyboard (with corona) on the iPhone does not offer a way to dismiss it. I.e there is no “done” or close button.

Been a while since i last used my iPad, so I cannot remember if it offers a built in dismissal button on the numeric keypad or not.
