Apple actually suggests that design permeate the development process (see their "7 ingredients of successful iPhone apps" talk). As I said, the app is quite usable at this point but I am now working on adding those details that make an interface magical. I'll definitely discuss this more on the blog.

If you can get that right, then everything else will fall into place. Are you still in design mode or developing the application at this point?

I try not to think too much about the extra coding while I'm in design mode. From your blog I'm guessing you're the designer of 2Do (though I can't read Arabic). Excellent work! Hey Bandar, thanks.

I wish you and your app a great luck :) As a UI designer, i really respect all the effort you are putting into your app :)
