I question these imagined barriers:

> Should I package this up properly? Probably not: it's a proof of concept that solves my specific problem. Plus, PureGym would probably just hire me to shut it down, and I'm not ready for that level of corporate responsibility.

Don’t take a job if they offer one to you then?

> SaaS Dreams: Package this properly, get sued immediately, become a cautionary tale at product management conferences.

I genuinely don’t think that this is how it would go down, unless you’re marketing it as an official product. As a consumer I’m allowed to buy things that I find useful, and if this was packaged as a third-party convenience for personal use I don’t see the issue.

I suppose that if the company even noticed (very unlikely) they could get pissy but then I’d expect a c&d to arrive not some multi-million dollar lawsuit. Caving in at this point is an option.

Honestly I think getting past app review and into the App Store would be the hard part.
