I like to spend 15 minutes out of my work day reading technical books. To encourage this habit I like to see when I&#x27;ll finish a book (eg in 2 weeks time) - it&#x27;s amazing how quickly you can get through a book if you spend just 15 minutes per day on it.<p>I used to do this calculation by hand but I though it would be fun to see visually.
So I wrote an app to show me when I&#x27;ll finish.<p>(This was also an exercise in learning Swift and going through the learning process of publishing an app.)<p>You can specify which days of the week you read and it will take that into account when doing it&#x27;s calculations.<p>For example, I read technical books at work. So I only read those on weekdays. Given I spend 15 minutes per day reading a tech book and read about 15 pages each time (depending on the book of course), I can now see when I&#x27;ll finish.<p>Does anyone else do something like this to motivate their reading?
