The Yamaha PSR-SX720 keyboard is back in my office, connected up to my iMac and GarageBand is fired up once again as I continue my multi-track remastering / remixing / re-recording journey back in time through all of my previous AꓭBA / Benny Andersson inspired instrumental pop songs.
I had a lot of fun on the project last year with two album and two single releases and over 50% of my songs now available! Hoping to add a lot more this year starting with my 2015 “Travelers” album.
A huge thank you to everyone around the globe who has taken the time to listen to my music. As always, it is your support, likes on SoundCloud, and encouragement that keeps me going. If you enjoy my music and can afford to, please consider hitting the Support button and sending any amount you can (no amount is too large or small) and please continue to share the link to my songs with anyone you know who might also enjoy them. It all means so much to me.
Finance 10 is a major upgrade with over 290 refinements. Adding new features and making improvements while retaining the simplicity and ease-of-use I have always strived for in my apps. The new version introduces several key improvements, including enhanced data entry and greater consistency across macOS, iOS, and iPadOS with grouped forms, a new “Duplicate Transaction” feature so you don’t have to waste time entering data that is virtually identical to an existing transaction, and customizable currency formatting for accounts with different currencies. The upgrade now displays a sync status so you will always know when your data is being synced with iCloud, adds a new “Search All” feature to help you locate transactions across all of your accounts, a new preference setting to control how your filter selection is managed while using the app, and improved sidebar navigation. Additionally, Finance 10 offers a visual representation of budget distributions through a new chart feature. The 10.1 update further enhances this feature by matching the chart colors to your budget funds resulting in a cleaner and more intuitive interface and the 10.1.1 update contains a minor bug fix.

This is a special release for me. It isn’t every day that an app reaches version 10. An app that started life back in 1994 as a HyperCard-based app, became a SuperCard-based app for many years, and more recently a SwiftUI-based app. My thanks to everyone who made this possible, to the users who have supported my app through the years, to everyone who was so patient as I had to stop to learn programming all over again in SwiftUI when SuperCard-based apps could no longer run on newer versions of macOS, to the Apple developer community and educators who helped me learn SwiftUI and answered my endless questions (and continue to do so). My thanks to all the new users who have found and supported my app. I could not have done this without all of you and I look forward to the road ahead.
I’m happy to say that Finance 10.1.1 is available free of charge for existing users who purchased on the App Store. For new users, despite the rising cost of everything, I’ve been able to keep the price the same for now with a one-time fee of $18.99 USD.
I hope that everyone enjoys the new version and finds it useful. If you do, please consider submitting positive reviews to the App Store, telling your friends, and sharing the link to my apps. If you’ve already purchased a copy of Finance and want to further support my efforts, please consider checking out my other apps and even just listening to my instrumental pop music on SoundCloud or clicking the support button. If you have any additional questions about Finance or encounter any issues, please let me know. It all helps and it is greatly appreciated.
Please check out my other apps on the App Store!
iKeeper 6.2.1 features over 40 changes in the code including better support for macOS, iOS, and iPadOS 26 (adopting liquid glass throughout the user interface, added icons for menu items (in macOS), and regular, dark, clear, and tinted icons). Improvements in handling app data, iCloud syncing, tab bar (in iOS 26), toolbars (now including list status [number of records displayed] in iOS and iPadOS 26), welcome (icon adapts in dark mode), search, and double clicking in lists (on macOS). Fixes for displaying welcome instead of an empty list when filtering and/or searching returned no results, and a minor issue with button enabling in product and password label settings.
Gradiance 1.2 features better support for macOS, iOS, and iPadOS 26 (adopting liquid glass throughout the user interface - including frosted liquid glass backgrounds for the welcome and controls as they float over the gradient, added icons for menu items (in macOS), and regular, dark, clear, and tinted icons). Improvements in the controls layout structure for better sizing on all platforms, refinements to control placement in Point Settings section and changing the Options section to focus on the Controls Position (with a new tab icon as well).
The updates are free to existing users (as usual). I hope that everyone enjoys them. Thank you all for your continued support, it is greatly appreciated and helps me continue on this journey.
