Quickly jot down stories into Pivotal Tracker

I often find myself wanting to add stories into Pivotal Tracker while away from my computer, as I spend time thinking about and using the apps I create. Using the website from a mobile browser is painful, there's no official app, and it can be tedious copying notes from other note taking solutions.

This app serves the single simple purpose of creating new stories in Icebox with the given text, you can choose what type of story and which project to add it too. That is it, nice and simple. The intention is that when you get back to your computer, the story would be fleshed out with details of the feature, or reproduction steps of a bug.

If you are looking for a full solution to managing Pivotal Tracker on the go, this is not the app for you. I'd recommend P-Tracking, which can handle most tasks, though I found it didn't quite fit my needs. I also might work on a more fully featured Android client for Pivotal Tracker sometime if I need one.

For those interested in modifying this app or making their own apps that interact with Pivotal Tracker, the source code is available on GitHub. Pull requests adding other features are welcome and will be used to update this store listing, assuming the app remains simple to use. https://github.com/mensly/PivotJot
