iStudiez Pro updates submitted both iOS and Mac versions

We decided to release a quick update before holidays and hope that it’ll be approved by Apple before the whole team goes on holidays.

Most importantly, the updates include A&B and alternate days schedule shift after holidays, fixes of random syncing issues, customization of date for assignment notifications and some more improvements of general performance of the app.

Also, for iOS version the School Bell notification sound is added :)

Update: both versions are available on the App Store as of Dec 20, 2011.
NOTE: you need to update both iOS and Mac versions in order to get Cloud Sync work properly.

Notifications and Badge in iStudiez Pro – common questions

After most of you updated to iOS 5, we have received quite a number of letters with complaints that notifications and/or badge in iStudiez Pro were no longer working. Most likely you just need to double-check your settings. Here is what you need to do if you do not see your notifications anymore:

  1. Double-check the settings in iStudiez Pro.
    • Go to Today > Info page > Settings > Notifications and make sure this option is turned ON
    • Go to Today > Info page > Settings > App Icon Badge and turn it ON
  2. Open Settings application on your device (please do not confuse with settings within iStudiez Pro) > go to Notifications > iStudiez Pro > Turn ON Badge Icon and Notifications
  3. Re-launch iStudiez Pro

iStudiez Pro Settings


iOS Settings


If in both places you have it turned ON and you still have a problem, please write to our support mail, we will do our best to help you.

iStudiez Pro for Mac version 1.0.5 available in the Mac App Store

First we would like to apologize before those of you who experienced problems with sync in previous version of the app. Here is what we’ve done to address existing issues:

  • Fixed “Sync from Mac” behavior
  • Added Sync to Server command allowing to force sync to the server all the data available in iStudiez Pro for Mac
  • Fixed problem when the app loses data after quitting
  • Fixed GPA calculation based on Percent Grading Scale

IMPORTANT: those users who lost the app data on their iOS devices after updating to version 1.0.4, but still have the data on their Macs will need to use new command Sync to Server. Here is what you need to do:

  1. From the iStudiez Pro menu bar, choose Data
  2. While in Data menu, press and hold Option button on your keyboard
  3. You will see the command Sync To Server appearing in Data menu, click it

This will force sync all the data currently existing on your Mac to the server. After you sync on your iOS devices, you will be able to see all data back there.
ALSO NOTE: this solution will only help those who did not create any new Cloud Sync accounts in iStudiez Pro and who are currently using iStudiez Pro for Mac where all the data is present.
