Announcing Orchid Album for PC

“Orchid

Since releasing Orchid Album on the iOS App Store last year, I’ve had requests for a Windows PC version. Over the past few years I’ve been working on some other PC apps, but didn’t have the time to work on a PC version of Orchid Album. With the recent release of Bonsai Album for PC and Story Tracker for PC, I’ve finally had a chance to ponder the possibility.

Today I’m pleased to announce my plans to bring Orchid Album to Windows PCs!

Windows versions from XP SP3 through to Windows 8.1 will be supported. I also plan to make any necessary modifications for Windows 10 support, once that’s released. The app will contain many of the features of the iOS version, with the addition of some new features like enhanced search and printing capabilities. You’ll be able to transfer your database to and from the iOS version via WiFi, too.

I’m currently hard at work localizing the iOS version into French, Italian, German, Spanish, and Portuguese for the version 1.3 update. These languages will also be supported in the PC version.

UPDATE: Orchid Album for PC is now available!

Artwork Tracker for Mac Preview

Track your artwork collection on your Mac – Coming Soon!

Back in May I announced Artwork Tracker for Mac. The app has reached the point where I’m now able to give you an early look at how things are coming along. This is close to the final interface, and as you can see, it’s designed to look similar to the iOS version.

The Mac version will include some additional features like printing and support for Mac Retina displays. You’ll also be able to transfer data between the Mac and iOS versions over WiFi.

I’m planning to release Artwork Tracker for Mac for direct sale on my website, as well as through the Mac App Store. There’ll also be a free trial version available for download, with similar limitations to the iOS Lite version.
