  1. TigerDine for Android is here!

    After several months and a lot of frustrations had at the way Android does stuff differently as a platform compared to iOS, I have finally put together a complete product that Iโ€™m really proud of. And itโ€™s out on the Play Store RIGHT NOW!

    RIT students with Android phones can finally rest easy knowing that iPhone users arenโ€™t the only ones with a cool dining app.

  4. Just submitted my application for access to production in Google Play Console for TigerDine!

    Once Google (hopefully) accepts my application, TigerDine for Android will be widely available on the Play Store. From here I'll be working on some polish, and then I'll also look into setting up alternate distribution methods for people who prefer to avoid the Play Store. I will still be using my Play-signed APKs so that they'll work past September.

  5. Some more work has been done on TigerDine for Android! Thanks to @DamiDoop spending a lot of time figuring out how on earth to implement a Material 3 Expressive SegmentedListItem, the main location list looks much much better!

    I also updated the app to use the same 7 day sliding window of dining hours as the iOS app, so you can see upcoming hours and visiting chefs rather than only today's.

    Here's a preview of what the revamped UI looks like!

  9. TigerDine v1.2.4 is out on the App Store and TestFlight now to fix the crashing bug! Hopefully everyone updates quickly so I stop getting crash reports lol.

    I also wrote a blog article talking about exactly what went wrong and why: ninjacheetah.dev/2026/04/20/im

  11. TigerDine is currently broken because Imagine RIT is happening on Saturday, and Crossroads is openly specially for the event (itโ€™s usually closed on Saturdays) and has a visiting chef around during those opening hours.

    As it turns out, that visiting chef is using a brand new time string format that I havenโ€™t encountered before, and that breaks TigerDineโ€™s detection of it as a morning time, tries to parse โ€œ11amโ€ as an integer directly, force unwraps the resultโ€ฆ

  17. Itโ€™s been a while since I last posted, but Iโ€™ve been hard at work on dining app stuff!

    My dining app, now officially renamed to TigerDine so that it doesnโ€™t sound official, is out publicly on the App Store! I added a handful of new features like favorites and pulling menus from FD MealPlanner, and then decided it was ready and shipped it to the App Store 2 weeks ago today. In that time Iโ€™ve seen ~160 downloads, which is more than I expected for how long itโ€™s been!

  19. One more separate thought that came up while working on the occupancy stuff: the cracks in the TigerCenter API are starting to show. Today alone, Iโ€™ve noted 4 locations that have incorrectly marked hours. RITZ and Crossroads are both noted as being open according to TigerCenter, but they are not, in fact, and the RIT Dining website correctly shows them as closed.

    This is why my secondary project is to try and get in contact with whoever currently maintains TigerCenter, becauseโ€ฆ 1/2

  20. Did some sniffing around on the RIT campus map (just watching the network traffic in Firefox), and I found something very useful: the building occupancy API!

    Busyness indicators are something that I wanted, since the actual RIT dining website has them, but that's not included in the dining data so I assumed that my only option was to scrape the site if I really wanted them, which would suck because the site being slow is the main reason that I'm making this app. 1/?

  22. So about the dining app- RITโ€™s dining website is the slowest thing ever. It takes legitimately 20-30 seconds to refresh sometimes, which is really annoying when you want to quickly check if a location is open or not before you start walking there, especially because weโ€™ve got a decent number of dining options here that all have different hours.

    But itโ€™s not hopeless! Thereโ€™s an API from something called TigerCenter availableโ€ฆ 1/?

  24. On a related note though, Iโ€™ve been working on an app for my college because their dining website sucks and makes it really annoying to do basic things like check the hours of a given location before I cross campus to go there.

    I made a nice little native SwiftUI app that pulls from an API that thankfully exists to get all of the dining info and displays it efficiently and in a way thatโ€™s easy to check quickly. More details soon!
