theabrodo on HNHoly..! This is awesome. Made my day as a fellow designer/ux guy. I am in the process of mocking up a new app now and I'm sure this will come in handy. Good job!

Layout is poor on iPhone
From 1 comment
Hmm I think this is a good idea but the layout on iPhone is poor. I'd suggest making it more usable from a phone.

Great resource. Two other amazing resources for mobile patterns are http://pttrns.com/ and http://www.mobile-patterns.com/
raja on HNReminds me of pttrns (http://pttrns.com/). Being able to look at a lot of apps can be a source of great motivation if you're having designer's block.
