About
Hi, my name is Patrick. I love programming and started in 1999 doing web development. I got a Bachelors Degree in 2007 for Visual Communications and learned all my programming from the internet (Google is my friend). I started developing for the iPhone in 2009 and am loving it.
I’m Married with 2 kids (twins) and love them so much.
Currently I work for Video Copilot as the web dev and it is the best job I’ve ever had.
Some other hobbies of mine are playing FPS (Currently Modern Warfare 2 and Battlefield Bad Company 2), I lead worship at my church (I play the guitar and sing), and spending time with my family and friends. I also enjoy doing a little photography every now and then and I’m currently learning CG (using Cinema 4d) and it is a blast.
Hi Patrick,
Congrats! Real nice app you got there. Good luck on your iPad app.
Am a web programmer too! Hoping you could give me an insight on how easy/hard is it to pick up – developing apps for iPhone.
Your inputs are appreciated.
Cheers

Hey, my name is Randy. Our backgrounds are very similiar, I’ve got two kids and I’m currently working on my Bachelors. Where did you learn to program?, if you don’t mind me asking. I just got out of the Navy and I looking to get started in the mobile device platform app development world.
AM looking for an organizer app that will also allow me to move all my data from my treo 680 to the ipod touch. Will any of your apps be able to accomplich this? Thank you
Greetings Patrick:
You are off to a grand start with this application. While I have other favorite and preferred TASK/GTM tools, I very much like what you have done with this. Therefore, I have purchased and plan to follow the application and use it to see where you take it. I will also recommend to other team members. As a CTO & CSA I very much appreciate good software and application development. Nicely done sir.

Hi,
I’ve installed Notely on my iPad and it is working really well. Many thanks for an excellent application!
I am, however, experiencing difficulty in installing the program on my iPod Touch. After selecting the program for installation, it drops out and does not install when I perform a sync. Am I doing anything wrong? Is there a particular method for installing the program. The ability to have the program operating on both devices and syncing via Dropbox would be a big plus.
Looking forward to receiving your response.

What firware do you have on your iPod? Currently Notely only supports 4.2+ but I’ve submitted v1.1 and it will support firmware 4.0+ when it is approved.
Hi, I use taskly and I see you guys integrated TextExpander app, it’s great. However, TextExpander costs 5 dollars and it’s too expensive, and I found a free app does exactly what TextExpander does, called EasyText, please integrate that for users’ sake, thank you.

Hello Patrick,
I bought Notely from the App Store and was very happy with it – I even wanted to give it 5 stars in the store.
But I encountered big problems when uploading the textfiles to Dropbox. I´ve written lots of briefings for my crew on Notely and the english texts work well, but german texts get cluttered after they have been uploaded. The letters Ä, Ö, Ü, ä, ö, ü, ß and others get replaced by strange glyphs and all the breaks get lost, which makes it impossible to read.
This makes it difficult to use the app, as I use it to share infos with other crewmembers via the ipad.
Are there any plans to fix that?
Apart from that, Notely is a really great editor, I love the extended keyboard and the folder functions.
Sincerely yours
John Brito
Hi,
I just wanted to offer two suggestions to help you improve your notely app.
Firstly, you have saved me countless hours by making it and I cannot thank-you enough. I really hope you feel proud of making it because you have saved a student’s sanity in university!
I had two minor suggestions for improvements:
1. so you know, in the ipad app it doesn’t work with bluetooth keyboards and half of the screen becomes an empty useless black space where the keyboard used to be (the keyboard disappears when the bluetooth keyboard is being used).
2. em dashes, the symbols you get when you type alt + 0151 ” — ” become an N with a squiggly accent when synced as a text file to dropbox. I was just wondering if you could correct this.
Thank-you so much for making my favourite text editor
