There is another more stable version of the operating system currently being tested. Stability is an issue with all iPhone apps right now (even Apple's own Mobile Safari web browser). In fact, one of the most important things is that there is a desktop client, which reduces the anxiety about having a backup of your data, as well as having an easier way to manage your lists. That said, it is very nice to have any desktop client.

SPLASHSHOPPER WINDOWS FOR MAC

I don't have any specific suggestions here, and this isn't the place for Mac review, but let's just say that it needs more work.

It looks very much like a Palm app that was ported to Windows and then to Mac. There's something about the Mac client for Splash Shopper that makes it feel non-Macish.

SPLASHSHOPPER WINDOWS MAC OS X

When I first started using Mac OS X a few years ago, I was often annoyed by comments such as “It just doesn't feel like a Mac app.” Well, now I understand. For example, when I open the lists, the "Item" column (the most important) isn't wide enough for me to read the list of items in it, and I have to manually drag it to the right. Just start a list called "Notes to Myself" or some such. But SplashShopper is a good way to take notes too.

I still don't understand why Apple hasn't added that yet. Since the launch of the iPhone, people have been frustrated with the mind-boggling stupidity of the lack of a native way to sync notes on the iPhone. But it just doesn't work well on the iPhone screen. It's completely understandable why they would want to keep those names. The parent company, SplashData has a lot vested in the branding of their “Splash” apps, such as SplashID, SplashMoney, SplashTravel, SplashNews, SplashMonkey (ok I made that last one up to see if you were still paying attention). Worse still is that, due to limitations of the iPhone, there is no way to rename the app, so I can't just rename it “Shopper”. Not one other of them requires an ellipsis. I have about 80 different icons on my iPhone, including a bunch of apps I have downloaded from the App Store. This isn't really entirely SplashShopper's fault: there's the space limitations on the iPhone screen. This takes no more time than it would to take pen and paper out of your pocket. This is critical because if you're anything like me, if it takes a long time to load, you're going to have a subconscious resistance to launching it. Then you can sync wirelessly over your Wifi connection to your iPhone.Īnother big plus? Only takes a few seconds to load.

This means that you can make your additions/edits/etc on the desktop, with a full keyboard, mouse, etc. A very popular Mac app “1Password” stores not only passwords, but credit card information, secure notes, and will auto-fill in webforms with your name, address, etc. (Also it should be noted that they are far from being the only ones who have this problem.

Muchc has already been said about the over-abundance of “To Do” apps in the App Store, and Splash Shopper is wise to separate itself from that list, but in reality Splash “Shopper” is much more of a list-manager than just a shopping list. Several of those are shopping lists, several of them are not. In fact, when you first launch “Splash Shopper” you will find several pre-defined lists: Books, Emergency, Gifts, Groceries, Household, Movies, Music, Office Supplies, To Do, Travel Checklist, and Wine.

But there's something that makes SplashShopper stand out: it has a desktop client and not just a Windows client, but a Mac desktop client as well. It does any kind of lists that you might want to keep. SplashShopper does more than just shopping lists. SplashShopper is great at making shopping lists, but as Jerry Seinfeld famously said: “It does other things!” Or, I should say, I didn't know all that it does. Mostly because I didn't know what it did. I knew of Splash Shopper from my long time use of a Treo (it was rated 5 out of 5 previously on Palm Addicts!) but I had never used it myself. I was very excited when I heard Merlin Mann say that Splash Shopper was coming to the iPhone. If you want a review of some of them, Macworld did a review of the basic ones. (One of the worst parts of the App Store right now is there's no model for “shareware” or “demo” applications.) What makes it worse is that you can't try before you buy. Ok, most of them are a little more than that. "To Do" lists on the iPhone are a dime a dozen.
