This looks great! Dumb question just to make sure I’m not missing something… I assume you need a jailbroken phone to install this app, yes?

Well, I’m actually releasing it in source code form (that’s the GitHub link) so anyone who can get it up and compiling on a Mac using Xcode can run it, and anyone with an Apple Developer account can get it running on their phone. You can use a free account and push a version that works for a limited time (you can just keep re-pushing it to the phone).

At some point I plan to make a page and/or video that explains the process but in any event right now I’m not distributing it in compiled app format (but the source is out there so anyone who wanted to could do so)

So no you don’t necessarily need a jailbroken phone but you can’t get it off the App Store either.

Yeah the one I’ve been using is this $5 guy from Walmart. It’s even the right shade of red and it has a head strap, which is nice but not 100% required since my app doesn’t do head tracking or anything.
