Update for 9 AM (California-time) Wednesday, May 12th, 2021 FYI, starting today, the entire Team will be Out of the Office for approximately one week. What we've accomplished may NOT have have been noticed much INSIDE the iOS App Store, but is finally starting to get noticed OUTSIDE of it ! Specifically, we've been Asked & have Agreed to present our Technology & the Benefits that it offers to select others. We refer to it as a Roadshow, & it is NOT UN-like what many companies do to try to gain interest before their IPO. Also, different subject, to those of you who were NOT able to meet up with us while we were here in Silicon Valley the past few months, you will now need to make a visit to La Jolla to do so. At the end of the Roadshow, the entie Team will be back in La Jolla. ----- Update for 7 PM (California-time) Tuesday, May 11th, 2021 FYI, we've decided to wait & see how their Spin Off plays-out in the public markets. In the meantime, we'll be using our Technology to showcase a few of their products in a Unique & Innovative way. -----
BREAKING NEWS: 9:30 AM (California-time) Tuesday, May 11th, 2021 FYI, it was Announced earlier today that L Brands would soon be spinning-off Victoria's Secret as a separate, publicly-traded company. We're gonna try to make a play for it ! For those who are UN-aware, Photosets began life as an iPad ONLY app for "viewing" Victoria's Secret Fashion Shows, & the like. In fact, Photosets' original app name was HSPM, which stands for High Speed Photo Modeling. Strictly a "technology play," Photosets paired the Best Burst Photo Camera Capture Capability offered by Apple, with an application (almost) purpose-built for Full-Res capture @ 30 fps & (very importantly) the P3 D65 color space ! Photosets today is FAR SUPERIOR to Photosets back then ! We can now do wonders "promoting" Victoria's Secret Fashion Shows, & the like ! Those sufficiently Skilled in the Art, should immediately appreciate that this ALSO is a "technology play" !
Food for thought: What could a (well-aligned) Flagship-caliber application do for a Flagship-caliber Burst Photo Camera App ? And vice-versa ?

Update for 5 PM (California-time) Monday, May 10th, 2021 FYI, Photosets v8.35 was Approved alittle while ago, & is now Available for Download ! To celebrate the fact that we really wanted to use the term "Unique & Innovative" in the what's new description, we've just Reduced the Price of the app's ONE & ONLY IAP, Burst Photo Pro, by half to ONLY THREE U.S. BUCKS ! Best to assume it's ONLY a temporary price change. -----

Key Notes: 1.) If Burst Photo Pro is installed, Photosets will use the most-recent PNG file in your Photosets/Watermarks folder, as your custom Watermark during Burst Photo Capture. ● Max size for a custom Watermark is 900x900. 2.) To capture more than "30" photos per set, both the Power User & Intelligent Startup switches MUST be set to ON, & a certain Secret Sauce Code "timing constraint" MUST have been met (which is evaluated when you transition into the Camera). ● Burst Photo Pro is needed to enable the switches. ● As such, Burst Photo Pro is needed to capture more than "30" photos per set.

---------- News ----------
Update for 2:30 PM (California-time) Monday, May 10th, 2021 Three things to announce: 1.) Photosets v8.35, has been "Waiting for Review" @ Apple App Review since 10:35 PM yesterday. As such, it "could" become Available later today.
2.) We're currently working on Timmy v2.0, which we've got "Special Purpose Use" plans for. i.e., we'll be using it to craft an AAPL-specific Financial Video !
Here is a Head's Up on the What's New Description: ● We've added per-Region support ! ● Timmy is now a per-Region, per-Qtr, per-Device "Unit Sales Estimator" app !
Here is a Head's Up on the App Description: ● Timmy is a One of a Kind App, that enables anyone to gain Insight into the Smartphone Industry ! ● NOT the high-level stuff you see on CNBC & elsewhere, but low-level Unit Sales Estimates Hand-Crafted by You ! ● Specifically, Timmy enables anyone with Basic Math Skills, Good Common Sense, & Good Knowledge of the Smartphone Industry, to craft their own per-Region, per-Qtr, per-Device Unit Sales Estimates ! ● At the core of Timmy are two constraint-based Algorithms that process your inputs in real-time on your device ! ● One algorithm covers the last Fiscal Year that Apple provided Unit Sales Numbers at Quarterly & Annual Earnings Releases, while the other covers everything since then ! ● Timmy made its Debut in the iOS App Store on May 16th, 2018.
As a reminder, Timmy v1.9 was Removed from Sale by Apple on Sept 9, 2019.
3.) We've resurrected our Timmy P/E efforts, with intention of including it in the Video. As a reminder, the Timmy P/E represents a company's Debt-adjusted projected P/E ratio. -----
Update for 9 AM (California-time) Monday, May 10th, 2021 FYI, it hit us on Saturday that NO third-party Camera App has ever been widely adopted. We believe Photosets v8.35, out later today ?, & for a number of very legitimate reasons, has a Very Good Chance of being The Very First ! This "realization" has forced us to RE-think our Marketing Strategy. Specifically, we're RE-working our Strategy to position & promote Photosets as the (potential) first-ever widely adopted third-party Camera App ! We believe Photosets is well-positioned to achieve that status. -----
Update for 11:30 AM (California-time) Sunday, May 2nd, 2021 Three things to announce: 1.) Photosets v8.34 was Approved earlier today & is now Available for Download ! We encourage everyone to Download it ASAP. 2.) We did NOT release Timmy's estimates for AAPL's Q2 FY21 results yesterday as planned. We plan to do so later today. 3.) Long overdue, but well-aligned with the Epic vs Apple court battle, we intend to Kick Off our first-ever Photosets Marketing & Branding Campaign this week ! -----
Update for 9 AM (California-time) Saturday, May 1st, 2021 FYI, we did NOT release Timmy's estimates for AAPL's Q2 FY21 results yesterday as planned. We plan to do so later today. It hit us yesterday that if we took Apple's Net sales by category, & applied that to Net sales by reportable segment, Timmy could provide a Deep Dive UN-like ANY so-called Pro Stock Analyst who has ever covered AAPL for a living ! And NOT just for the current fiscal quarter, but covering every AAPL fiscal year starting with 2018 ! In other words, per-Region, per-Qtr, per-Device iPhone Unit Sales Estimates "hand crafted" by you !
Here is a Head's Up on the new control: Worldwide / Americas / Europe / Greater China / Japan / Rest of Asia Prior to yesterday, Timmy had ONLY supported Worldwide analysis. -----
Update for 12 Noon (California-time) Friday, April 30th, 2021 Three things to announce: 1.) We'll be releasing Timmy's estimates for AAPL's Q2 FY21 results later today, & naturally courtesy of recent Enhancements to Timmy v2.0, the planet's ONLY per-Qtr, per-Device iPhone Unit Sales Estimator App. 2.) We've decided to resurrect our Timmy P/E efforts ! As a reminder, it's simply a Debt-adjusted version of Projected P/E. NO ONE should UNDER-estimate the impact it "could" have. 3.) We intend to release the next update of Photosets (v8.34) early next week, possibly on Monday.
Here is a Head's Up: ● Adds a 2nd-cut of Multi View Capture ! ● Adds expanded Audio Capture support (up-to "two" seconds / photo set) ! ● Adds support for exporting Lossless Capture photos & sets in PNG format ! And naturally, we will release the next update of Photosets TV (Build #59), our companion macOS app for Photosets, at the same time. -----
Update for 1 PM (California-time) Thursday, April 29th, 2021 FYI, we're currently working on adding support for AAPL's Q2 FY21 results into Timmy v2.0. 50% chance we'll be done by day's end today. As a reminder, we have Special Purpose Use plans for Timmy. We predict it will soon be perceived as "the Catalyst" for Photosets (finally) gaining traction in the iOS App Store ! As a reminder, Photosets has been a rare, true Flagship-caliber Burst Photo Camera App since the early days of the 2016 iPhone 7+. Yet, has received NO love from Apple in their "curated" iOS App Store. We leave it to the Reader to try to figure out why.
Also, different subject, like most with Basic Common Sense, we see the surge in sales of Macs & iPads (in Q2 FY21) as simply being due to Pull Forward Demand due to COVID, & helped in large part by lots of Gov't spending. And, we are puzzled as to why some so-called Pro Stock Analysts who cover AAPL for a living, lack such Basic Common Sense. Some are clearly just "AAPL Cheerleaders," & as such, should be required to wear a cheerleader skirt whenever on CNBC ! -----
Update for 4:30 PM (California-time) Wednesday, April 28th, 2021 FYI, one of our Back Burner R&D Projects took an important step forward today !

Update for 10:30 AM (California-time) Wednesday, April 28th, 2021 FYI, yesterday, because of the Epic vs Apple court case, it became widely-known that Scott Forstall had a number of "heated" debates with Steve Jobs, specifically related to whether native third-party apps should be allowed on iOS. Forstall was for it, Jobs was against it. Today, we've decided to Kick Off a first in a series of Articles, that asks the key question:
What if Steve Jobs had won that Debate ? For starters, a few things are crystal clear to us: 1.) Neither the iPhone NOR the iPad would have become a market success. 2.) Palm's webOS would have become the dominate mobile OS. 3.) Palm & Qualcomm would very-likely be the most-valuable Tech Companies today. 4.) Most outside of Apple would have never heard of Tim Cook, because Apple's Board would never have appointed him CEO. (i.e., they would have picked someone from Outside the company to succeed Jobs, very-likely someone with a proven Track Record of Tech Innovation). -----
Update for 2 PM (California-time) Monday, April 26th, 2021 FYI, we're now working on our first-ever Article, (one) that we hope to soon get Published ! It contrasts "Talent Discovery" in Pro Sports here in the States (for which there is alot of competition), vs. "App Discovery" in the iOS App Store (for which there is NO competition). Consider this, how would the Competitive Landscape look if Apple had "n" third-party App Stores to compete against, & in which every third-party app could be listed in one (& ONLY ONE) of the "n" third-party App Stores ? And, where "n" equals some number between Five & Ten. -----

Update for 8 AM (California-time) Friday, April 23rd, 2021 FYI, we're currently working on adding a 2nd-cut of support of Multi View Capture into the next updates of Photosets (v8.33) & Photosets TV (Build #59). We expect to release both early next week !

---------- Timmy ----------
● Timmy is our per-Qtr, per-Device iPhone Unit Sales (Estimator) App. ● It made its Debut in the iOS App Store in May of 2018. ● On November 1st, 2018, Apple announced that they would Stop Reporting iPhone Unit Sales. ● Apple pulled Timmy from their iOS App Store on Sept 9th, 2019, the day BEFORE their BIG 2019 iPhone Announcement. ● Very-likely, we believe, because its Estimates were too close for comfort for Tim Cook. ● The reason they gave us for pulling it was Total BS !
