An accelerating magnetic clock?

Sometimes you do stuff just because you can...

I spiffed up my Accelerometer component a little bit. I also wrapped up my Location based stuff into a Location component that handles both GPS coordinates, altitude and heading (true and magnetic).

What better way to test both of these components than my Clock app?

Believe it or not, the time is 11:17am in this screen shot. The 12-hour is pointing North. ;)

And I apparently leaned my phone so that the clock "fell" up into the top-right corner. ;)

Oh, and the second hand is the FireMonkey logo!

Wonder if anyone would buy this thing if I uploaded it as "Clock Pro" and put a $0.99 price tag on it. Source included of course!

My first iOS FireMonkey app in the AppStore

Submitted Saturday. Accepted and available tonight!

Anders' Analog Clock

I'll make a video of how it's made, and also publish the source code. Soon.

Enjoy!

First update may very well change the name to "Analog Clock for FireMonkey" just so you can find something in the appstore using "FireMonkey" as the search term. Oh, and properly working iPad support is coming as well. ;)

Please consider checking it out it and rating it! :)

Fix to my CC download for iOS DataSnap

Apparently the .a files I had on my machine are necessary... ;)

If you downloaded the source code from CodeCentral, head on over and download it again for a submission that includes the .a files.
