SpeakerClock
Big red LED digits allow you to see the timer even at great distance so you are free to move while you give the talk of your life. SpeakerClock emulates the famous countdown clock that all speakers at TED conferences need to adhere to.
The latest version is a universal app with HD-support for iPad, multiple presets and lots of usability enhancements. New portrait support allows you to put your iPhone/iPad in the cradle and still use SpeakerClock. Now the whole screen flashes if you transition into a new phase of your speech.

SwiftText
Over the course of the last year, I’ve had quite a few side projects that required some way to get text from a variety of sources, with code and frameworks found in a number of private repos. A while ago, I felt an inkling to start pulling those together into an open source project. So this will be my Christmas gift for you this year.
SwiftText collects various ways of getting text — or, if possible, Markdown — from a variety of sources and places.
Update: … now Images, PDFs, Word DOCX and also HTML pages or URLs.
SwiftLEGO

Who is Cocoanetics?
The word Cocoanetics comes from the words Cocoa (the framework we use to program iOS apps) and Genetics (to build, make up). It simply states that we have living and breathing iOS development a level even deeper than “in your blood”.
Our apps and parts are often experiments, mostly pieces of art, but always carefully handcrafted. We’re still learning and getting better at coding every day. You benefit from this because our code gets better all the time and we share what we learn on our blog.
