Mobile Apps

In 2000, I was the co-founder of Cocoasoft, a Slovenian start-up company which at that time developed mobile Java 2 Micro Edition applications. We developed several games, utilities and a mobile e-mail client using Java that was embedded in a few smartphones from Siemens and Nokia.

At that time, I was speaking at the JavaOne 2001 conference in San Francisco and I also co-wrote a book called Micro Java Game Development, published by Addison-Wesley.

Since 2010, I have been developing various mobile apps in my spare time. I have developed more than a 100 mobile/smart/wearable apps for:

  • Android smartphones/tablets (Android Java),
  • iPhone/iPad/Apple Watch (Swift),
  • Philips/Sony Smart TVs (Android Java & C++/Qt),
  • BlackBerry PlayBook (ActionScript 3, HTML5/Sencha, jQuery),
  • BlackBerry OS 6+ (Java),
  • BlackBerry 10 (C/C++, Qt/Cascades, Appcelerator Titanium),
  • Nokia/Siemens Mobile Phones (J2ME) and
  • Samsung Gear watch (Tizen/HTML5 with JavaScript).

Here is a list of some of my top mobile apps:

  • SVIT – Project Gutenberg E-book Reader (AIR – PlayBook) – 3rd place on BlackBerry Dev Challenge 2011
  • Secure Pictures (picture and video protection tool) –  (C++/Qt/Cascades/QML) –  BUILT FOR BLACKBERRY certified – top paid apps under category Production / Document Tools
  • PRISM Break Secure Email (email protection tool) – (C++/Qt/Cascades/QML) – BUILT FOR BLACKBERRY certified
  • Noise Meter for BlackBerry OS (Java ME) – dB meter
  • Runner’s Calc for Samsung Gear smartwatch (HTML5/JS) – health app (participated in the Samsung Gear Challenge 2014)
  • Ghost Hunting for Android TV (C++/Qt 5.5/QML) – action game (participated in Philips Android TV Challenge 2015)
  • Project Zarja: Single-hand App Launcher for Android smartphones (Android Java) – participated in Google Experiments Challenge 2016
  • and more…
