   My backup plan is the iOS Smart App Banner along with a custom Android solution that looks similar. Good point about the potential double-prompt.

   Try to think about it in the context of clicking on an ad for the product. Since the site is just a glorified app store page, I figure I am just reducing 1 click from the purchase flow. Do I irritate enough people that they refuse to buy be

   For now, I am leaning towards automatically redirecting them.

   I believe I was just hearing about high profile apps including Facebook doing this recently. This is a somewhat out of character move to attempt to wrangle in the Play Store content.

    Put another way, once installed, you press the Home key, and are 2 TAPS away from having it permanently set. It is a great solution to the problem, and something sorely lacking on iOS (for things like browser and email defaults).

    We have been working for over a year on this app, which takes data from multiple official sources, and synthesizes it using an aviation concept of 'personal minimums'. We worked hard to polish the app in a niche which otherwise contains som

    I think this is dead on. In meetings at work, 10 minutes is the norm. A quick "sorry, running late" seems to make people feel immune to keeping a room waiting.

    I think this is how people approach it. When you say switch over, what do you switch over to?

    We recently discussed underscore-cli here on Hacker News ( http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4491058 ) and I find it to offer more than this, but still a nice tool. https://github.com/ddopson/underscore-cli

    Thanks for posting here. How does this project relate to XMLVM (from Google employees)? We used that in order to bridge an Android app to iOS and found it to be pretty impressive. Is this based on that foundation, or a purely new effort? Th

    This seems a lot like a rebrand of XMLVM ( http://xmlvm.org/overview/ -- also a Google-employee-run project) with some missing UI features.

    I found this super useful: cat data.json | underscore print --color Gives you a well-formatted, color coded output for your JSON data. That is just one of the many things it can do.

    I was trying to figure out how to implement this well. One of my principles for this tool is to stay simple, and avoid trying to compete with the 'professional' tools like DUATS, ForeFlight, etc. While pulling and parsing TAFs for large air
