Show HN: Clean & Simple Shopping List (my first iPhone app)

[gs7]

I made learning Objective C and iOS development my New Year's resolution for 2014 and my first app was just approved to the App Store: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/clean-simple-shopping-list/id826827076

It's yet another shopping list app, I know. I really just wanted to build something that I would find useful, no matter how many others are out there already. But I learned a lot while making it and I'd love to hear your feedback (positive or negative). It's free, has no ads, and is open source: https://github.com/gschwarzer/Shopping-List

Thanks!

I don't like when apps put badges on the icon that don't go away but otherwise I like it.

Fair enough. The badge does go away though when your list has either no items or all items are crossed off. But I could make it an optional setting in the next update. Thanks for the feedback!

How did you go about learning Obj C and iOS development? Books? Online classes? YouTube?

I started with the Big Nerd Ranch Objective C book (http://www.amazon.com/dp/032194206X), then my job paid for a week-long class put on by Big Nerd Ranch. I can highly recommend both. I learned a ton and watching the Stanford iTunes U course on iOS development makes a lot more sense now.
