App studio is interested in getting you a job and helping to lower the unemployment rates so you can afford Obamacare. So, they’ve invented Resume Star for iOS, which produces a professionally typeset PDF resume right on your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad. It is a full-featured resume generator App, with an interesting twist: You only pay for the software if you land the interview.
Better Resumes: Resume Star came out of Qrayon founder, Chen Lim’s frustration with existing Apps:
Once, when reviewing resumes, I was struck by how many poorly formatted and badly spaced resumes I saw. Some even came in multiple colors and fonts that tried to look like a webpage rather than a resume. This made them hard to read and gave a poor first impression of the applicant. I was curious about what caused this, and talked to a few people. Some were trying to write a resume using a word processor, and getting tripped up on all the complicated formatting options. Others were using Apps supposedly designed to generate professional resumes, but they were trying to sell users on how many fonts and styles they had. The problem was that folks were spending more time picking the resume theme than making it targeted for the job opening.

Honor-Ware: The Qrayon development team decided to write their own resume App, one that focused on delivering just what job applicants needed. During development, they also decided to introduce an innovative pricing model. According to Chen:
Qrayon calls this approach “Honor-ware,” only paying for software that works.
