Have you ever wondered how that process running on your computer was progressing while you were watching television?

Or maybe your computer is showing a progress bar that provides little information and that does not indicate the remaining time.

Now you can take the progress bar with you!

Meet “THE BAR” (http://thebar.goalmoon.com)

It is a very simple two-step process, in which you capture the progress bar at different moments and indicate its positions on the application screen. The software then calculates:

- The time when the process began.

- The expected finish time.

- The total duration.

- The elapsed time.

- The remaining time.

- The percentage of the process.

It is designed to offer a practical way to use your iPhone to monitor your processes, with the following features:

- Simple and intuitive interface.

- Data persistence, which means that at each stage your data is stored. Even a possible incoming call does not interrupt the process. You can also exit the application and return at any moment; the process will be recalculated.

- Recalibration ensures that even processes that do not have a constant speed may be updated.

- Help information on all screens with detailed step-by-step instructions of each stage.

IMPORTANT: As the camera is key to providing the convenience to capture the progress bar, if your unit has NO camera, like the iPod touch, for example, you can try the free version first. The only difference with the paid version are the advertisements.
