My POS system is 10 years old!

I still recall looking for a software to develop an app integrating my electronics development. That's when I stumbled upon B4A.

I downloaded B4X, created a basic version (yes, finally, my initial projects were not related to electronics ), and began my B4X journey.
I remember showcasing my very rudimentary POS to cafes and restaurants, fueled by morning energy and undeterred by numerous rejections—back when I was still working the 9-5 grind - on ny way to work I stopped in 1 ór 2 cafes everyday.

I proudly presented my "POS" and loyalty app to every restaurant in town!! Sure I did to every restaurant/cafe! (ok, this city is not too big)
After many "no's," one finally said yes (ok, two, one for my POS and one for my Loyalty). I promptly purchased Enterprise version and worked at nigths, to craft a user-friendly version.

This week 10years later!!! a new version based in pages was finally installed in one of the restaurants - testing at the moment, (now it uses pages, despite its initial difficulties—it was quite a challenge to make it work, with many issues, etc.), but now it's up and running!

and more important!! it has been synchronized with my POS-uSAAS developed years ago and eagerly awaits the new POS version.

Thank you B4X


Edit: will update a video showing this new version soon.

I believe a good user interface design (UI) and user experience (UX) will help driving the potential customer interest. Second is the unique features that none offered in the market. I spent a lot of time on these things.

It happened a few years ago, coding during a flight!

If you’ve ever flown on an Airbus A380, you know it’s a long flight!

(pic from wikipedia)

Before taking that fly and staying in some hotels, as well how some hotels in Dubai, I was impressed to see my name displayed on some smat-TV, along with special promotions as a warm welcome

Inspired by this experience, I used my time on the long flight of the Airbus380 to develop a simple app called sTV-Menu for restaurants.

Initially, sTV-Menu allowed restaurant owners to update their menus remotely from anywhere in the world.
Since then, I’ve enhanced the app to also display promotions, making it an even more dynamic and engaging tool for showcasing menus; I try keeping it super simple!!

The best part? This app was developed using B4X, based just in a very simple example from B4X's team (or Erel)!

here a video:
