Aotearoa – educating you about nearby NZ legends
So I’ve just submitted my first app for approval by Apple! From the description I had to make to submit it:
Aotearoa is your essential guide to New Zealand’s legends. All these legends have been passed down through oral tradition and cross checked. Most of the stories blend the location’s true history and elements of fantasy. Use the Legends tab while traveling the country to read about the destinations you visit. Alternatively use the Map view to see which parts of the country we have covered and read all the legends at once. Also included is a Glossary with Maori to English translations of relevant words and place names. We’ll continue to update this app with new locations as we hear of them. Please share more New Zealand legends with us by emailing aotearoa@annarosekerr.com.

I started building it myself and got a bit stuck on the GPS so had to bring in an expert to pull it all together. The good thing about that is it runs with no errors and will hopefully sail through the approval process. Although I have heard about apps being pulled up on the tiniest details, so I’m not going to get my hopes up.
Upadate: You can now download this app on the app store. Sorry Android friends, I might build for you guys once I learn how to use Eclipse.
