KR iPhone app

I was thinking more about a pre/post game app not a during game app. I defiantly would not want to pull from the environment. May haps a way to plan on spending build or a look at the build "trees".

Like I said, it would be nice to have access to our character cards before/after event(s).

I know there are some apps that users can take photos using their smartphones & transform the images into other things, like QR Codes.  I would be interested in an app that allows a person to take a photo/scan their character card using their phone & sending the image as an easy file to read/translate for people's own records.

So I have a few ideas. Also I learned that I can't design any apps in my current job due to a conflict of interest. Errrr

Any way this is my concept:
Upon launching the app the KR logo appears then fades out. After that eight options appear on the screen.
1. Character sheet
2. Bank
3. Build tree
4. Map
5. History
6. NPC
7. Rule book
8. Forum

1- character sheet: this would let you either upload your character sheet or pull your character sheet from a server to view.

2- bank: this would let you keep track of how much gold you have in the bank and how much liquid gold you have. the bank would not be editable where as the liquid amount would be.

3- build tree: this section would let you, from a drop down menus, choose your profession and race and give you the cost of skills in that tree. Once you pick a race all available professions would be selectable, restricted classes would not show up.

4- map: this would give you a map of the game city and allow you to snap a photo during game and let you drop a geo tag pin on the map. This would allow everyone unique looks into each months event at thing that they were not a part of.

5- history: view the living history of the game. Perhaps give the VIP of characters who runs what area and what has happened in the past.

6- NPC: show the NPC schedule of times at each event and let's you choose what one you are working. Once chosen a push notification will warn you 15 minuets prior to your shift.

7-rule book: this would either link you to the online or PDF rule book with the most current rules.

8- forum: this would link you here to the forums.

This would be a big undertaking to do especially character sheets with the character database we may have to build but if a group of us worked on it, not much work. Also these are just one persons ideas. Let me know what you guys like and what you would change.

Really when I was thinking about this a while back, I just wanted an app version of the KR rule book. Not a link to the PDF... But rather an interactive menu more or less identical to the previous online rule book. Problem is updating it, so I imagine such a project would need to wait until we finish the last of the changes on the lower list rules.

Aside from that, interactive menus also bringing up maps, etc would be cool. Perhaps a new player welcome area so when we are advertising at cons we tell people they can download this app if they seem interested.
