GPS Clock - This application is part of the author's "30 Days of .NET" initiative to develop 30 mobile applications in 30 days. The source code of the application is included in order to help programmers new to Windows Mobile development write applications in .NET.
I couldn't resist creating another GPS related mobile application. One of the neat pieces of data you get from your GPS device is time. This is great. It is like having one of the clocks that can update itself over the air by reading data transmitted from various atomic clocks throughout the world. Many phones today have the ability to update their time by connecting to the OEM's time servers, but not all. And there are still lots of Windows Mobile classic devices in the world that do not have cellular capabilities.
Our user interface is simple and direct. We are using a nice graphic to adds some visual zing to the application. At the top of the screen we show the user their current device time and their current GPS time.
This allows the user to tell at a glance if they need to update their device's time using the Update menu option.
On the menu we have added some simple settings features: GPS Start, GPS Stop, About, and Exit.
This is one of those Web 2.0 ideas where an application does one thing but does it very well. Sometimes these are the best apps. In this case, our application provides a bride for GPS time data to become device time data.
Sometimes that's all it takes to make a user happy.
Possibilities:
How about changing the color of the date and time if they are more than five minutes off? Simple feature to add but really helps the user. And that's what matters.
