64-bit iOS app

History

So.... back in the heady days of 2010, Jake B. made the very first open-source WXYC iPhone app. At the time this was kind of a big deal as there weren't too many radio stations (let alone college stations) that had an app available for the iPhone. Fast-forward a couple years and that old app is still choogling along (with a couple updates here and there over the years).

Head fake. iOS 11 is released and our plucky app is a 32-bit binary in a 64-bit world. Time to adopt a new offensive strategy.

No one at the station seemed interested in embarking on this journey, so former Station Manager dvd made a list, checked it twice, prioritized, card-sorted, and SWATed all of the features a new and improved WXYC app would need.

This is the new repo. The new generation. Next gen. Gen X. Or. Like. Gen Z-ish. Whatever, it is modern as fuck.

"We think you're really going to like it..."

How Does It Work

Run it in Xcode.

Not long after we got the first version of this new app out the door, Jake B. took back over development and has maintained it ever since. Thanks Jake!
