Removed the recently added send count as text button due to text messaging length limitations and other considerations. The app will still be able to receive counts through the copper://icc?count= url scheme from other sources like email, web text link and other possible paperless sources including my soon to be released cable count splicing app. Thanks for your patience.

URL scheme Examples:

Without a count:

copper://

With single line of count:

copper://icc?count=22ca,1-600

With multi-lines of count:

copper://icc?count=22ca,1-600%0A3ca,1201-1500%0A22ca,901-1200

multi-line separator = %0A (percent symbol, zero, capital "A")

~Made correction to URL scheme.
~Updated occupied radio buttons color from black to slate while in dark mode.
~Added a share count button to the ICC screen that encodes the count with the new URL scheme.
~Added support for app users that require a colon as a cable name an pair range separator. ex. 22ca:151-450
~Made into Mac app. Release in near future.

Thanks for your support! In the next few weeks be sure to stop back here and check out my new app project in the "More by" section.  A user can enter up to 10 cable counts that all get checked for matching counts. When there is a match, the matching counts will then get a corresponding colored block next to it in an easy to read parsed count display. The new app will use the new URL scheme that has been added to open this app and my Fiber Optic CC app with the selected count depending on the user entered grouping configuration.

This update adds the requirement of using a host and key value parameter for the new url scheme. This structure will provide more options with future development.

For users that work with cable counts. This update implements a url scheme to use links with cable counts to open the app and have the counts automatically placed in it. End user will need to configure cable type. See my Fiber Optic Color Code app for a fiber:// url scheme. Thanks!!

Examples:

Without a count:
copper://

With single line of count:
copper://icc?count=22ca,1-600

With multi-lines of count:
copper://icc?count=22ca,1-600%0A3ca,1201-1500%0A22ca,901-1200

copper = app
"icc" = Input Cable Count screen
"count" = parameter key name
your count with multi-line separator (value) = %0A (percent symbol, zero, capital "A")

Possible usage:
Send counts as a link by text message.
Send counts by link in email.
Make clickable cable counts on a webpage.
And other paperless solutions.

~This update allows the app user to put the app into and stay in Dark Mode.
 Select the "More" tab and flip the Dark Mode switch on.

~Updated to latest iOS 14.4

~ Minor adjustments.

Thanks for choosing my 25 Pair CC app! This update includes a new "Big" pair search option and an even faster cable count entry enhancement.

New "Big" search feature option:
When searching for a pair, the app user can now select the "Big" search option to have only their located pair's color code and numeric location values shown.

'Speed Counts' cable entry enhancement:
While entering a cable count, the Cable ID autocomplete text bar now also looks into the 3 saved cable count positions for possible matching Cable ID's.

Thanks for choosing my 25 Pair CC app! 

~Say it
Improved the cable count lingo while the app is speaking.

Having cable count read back is an easy way of verifying your count has been entered correctly. Simply press the "Say it" button to listen along to your entered count while looking at a print / computer to verify they match.

Thanks again!

Thanks for choosing my 25 Pair Color Code app! This update includes a new feature and app behavior adjustments for the best user experience yet.

~Speed Counts
For app users that work with cable counts there is now a faster manual cable count entry option.  While working on the bottom line of count (last line of cable count) there is now a Cable ID autocomplete bar which displays up to 5 similarly started Cable ID's of the current cable count you are working with. Selecting a cable id auto completes the last line of count with the selected cable id and separator. Speed Counts are also implemented when searching for a cable pair too.

Let others know what you think of the app by rating or leaving a review. Thanks again!

Cable Count Input:
• The input now has an active pair counter that displays the pair quantity entered over the selected cable types maximum qty as "####/####"
• For possible cable count trouble shooting I've doubled the chosen cable types maximum for enabling the "Parse Cable" button. So that if the entered cable count has exceeded the chosen cable types maximum you can now choose the parse cable button to see the count broke down and possibly identify the issue with the cable count.

Adjusted some app behaviors for a smother user experience.

Added color scheme for system Dark Mode setting.
Improved Cable Count Input screen button behavior.

Added minor feature:
User can now click a pair and pointers will be placed at the super, bundle, group and pair locations. The apps title bar will also show the pairs layer drill down with an index pointer to show that it was user click initiated.

If a user searched for a pair by using the 'Find a Pair' button, the searched for pairs index pointers are locked so that it is not accidentally changed by an unwanted click. To use the user click feature the 'Find a Pairs' displayed pairs layer will have to be closed and reopened.

Fixed cable type selection list size for small screen devices.

Added cable type selection button.

Choices:
"25pr Common" for cables of 25 to 900 pair in size
"100pr Bundle" for cables of 1,200 to 3,000 pair in size
"300pr Bundle" for cables of 3,600 or 4,200 pair in size

Also updated the Parse Cable button to break down the entered cable count by the selected cable type.

~updated store images
~Added 'Smart Save' to save/use up to 3 cable counts.
From Input Cable Count screen.
1) Enter cable count
2) Select a cable position
3) Click Color Code button

The app will then store the cable count and take the user to the expanding Color Code screen.

To delete a cable count simply select a position and long click the clear button.

Smart Save radio buttons color key:
green = vacant
black = count previously saved and ready for use
red = count to be overwritten with new count (will display an old cable count confirmation below Parse Cable button)
blue = count successfully saved (upon direct return to input screen)

~Distinguishable cable count positions
When a cable count has been entered and a position has been selected the input box's border will turn blue for cable1 position, orange for cable2 position and green for cable3 position. Then after clicking the Color Code button the Search Icon and the search cable counts text box border will turn to the selected cable positions distinguishable color being used also.

blue = cable1
orange = cable2
green = cable3
gray = not saved to a position

~Added Custom Start pair for simple cable search without cable counts.

Upon entering a custom start pair the input and Search Button Icon will turn red for a start pair# greater than 1. Then the user will be able to search for their pair by entering a fiber greater or equal to the start pair and less than or equal to the calculated end pair that is shown as a hint in the search for pair text box.

red = custom start pair entered greater than 1
gray = start pair is #1
