South African ID Number Tools for Windows Phone 7
16 November 2011: This application has had a major update—see the details in this post.
Following the same idea as my AA Rate WP7 app, another very popular spreadsheet I built is one that verifies South African ID Numbers, so I also decided to build a Windows Phone 7 app to do that.
This does a little more than the spreadsheet could—it has lots of info about what in an ID number doesn’t verify, which is very useful.
In addition, it includes an awesome new feature: a South African ID Number Generator! With this, you put in a few required details, hit a button, and BOOM!—an ID number that will validate.
Important to remember: validation of a number doesn’t mean it actually exists—just that the math works. So please don’t use this for anything except interest or development!
(btw, screenshots are from v1.1, which is soon to be out—so if you download and it looks different, give it a day or two)
