Version 1.4.4 submitted – iOS 4.2 compatibility and more…

First of all let us reply to those of you who are impatiently waiting for sync between iPad and iPhone versions of iStudiez Pro: we already implemented it, but it is NOT included in this update, because we need some time to test it now. So sync will come and it will come very soon.

Version 1.4.4 is mostly about iPad version. iOS update from Apple is coming in November and we will be prepared with general iOS 4.2 compatibility, including support of multitasking and possibility to view Calendar events in iStudiez Pro.

We also missed Week View for iPad version of the app, so we developed it for this update as well, hope you’ll enjoy 🙂

And, something that we should have done long ago – iStudiez Pro will now support shift of schedule after holidays (for A&B weeks and rotating schedules) for iPhone/iPod/iPad.

A few words of general betterments:

  • Stability improved
  • Minor bugs fixed
  • Localizations fixed: Spanish, Italian, German and Chinese Traditional
  • Localizations added: British, Catalan (total number of localizations of the app being 29 now! Thanks to all of you who are helping so much with translation and corrections!)
  • Fixed occasional bug with dates in October

Reviews of iStudiez Pro around the web world

Recently we’ve mentioned that world famous web resources dedicated to reviewing iPhone and iPad apps did some reviews of iStudiez Pro. As soon as we are lucky to be reviewed in many languages, we’ve decided to share the links here (with due respect and special thanks to the authors, of course).

We hope that checking out these links will help those of you who have not yet (for god-knows-what reason) got iStudiez Pro to manage their academics.

First and foremost, Landing Pad has just posted iStudiez Pro screenshot. Thanks guys, we appreciate that very much!

On 26th of April Smoking Apples published a very comprehensive review in English language by Nick Wood. Thanks Nick, you rock! Same day Giacomo Canal contributed a review in Italian to Iphoneitalia.com and Siquitraki wrote an article in Spanish on the iphonefanatic.net.

Small review in German was published by Von Nicolas on iphone-ticker.de on the 14th of April, nice comments though.

iStudiez Pro was also mentioned as app of the 1st week of April on Themactrends.com (Spanish) and on Fr.wikinoticia.com (French). Interesting remark about iStudiez Pro and iPad Calendar was made on thebibyfokshow.fr (French).

And finally, on the 20th of March we catched a nice review in Japanese published on alternapp.com.

Thank you all guys, we value your attention and will take into account all your comments to make iStudiez Pro better and even more attractive 😉

Version 1.1.3 released

We were lucky to get it released before the grand holiday period, so let’s say it’s a little present for you guys 🙂

In 1.1.3 we’ve improved Calendar stability, rearranged settings and made some corrections to the Chinese Simplified, Dutch and French localizations.

Following your requests we implemented names for the exams option and added more sounds to choose from when setting up push notifications. Enjoy!

And, we’ve finally translated the app into the Japanese language adding up the localizations of iStudiez Pro to the jubilee number of 25!

More news to come after the holidays…
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you!

iStudiez Pro version 1.1 on the way!

Hello guys!
Following HUGE amount of letters that we have received from you, we felt it important to officially announce the nearest update to iStudiez Pro – version 1.1 (free of charge for everyone who already bought the app).

We are almost ready with it, but we want to double check everything, so we hope to submit it to Apple’s review in September. It is lots of work, so thanks for your understanding and patience.

So what’s new?

  • First of all, iStudiez Pro will only be compatible with iPhone/iPod Touch OS 3.0 or higher (if you have not yet updated your OS, it is right the time to do it, the new OS has lots of new and amazing functions to enjoy).
  • Most craved for feature – Push Notifications.
  • Holidays. Yep, now when you don’t have classes on some particular day, you’ll be able to mark it so that it shows you there is a holiday or day off with no classes.
  • Block schedule option (A & B weeks, 6-days schedule, every other day repetition etc).
  • Going beyond mere planning we have decided to add special area dedicated to Teachers hosting all your information about your instructors (e-mail, phone numbers, address, office hours etc).
  • When you input Custom class type, it will further be saved and available from the class types picker.
  • Danish, Finnish, Norwegian, Swedish, (hey there Scandinavia!), Hebrew and Polish localizations.
  • Operation speed improved, assignments planning improved, some other things added (let us be mysterious at least in something, hah?!)
  • Minor bugs fixed (that’s standard, we just had to write that down 🙂 )

Guys, we are also thinking to add GPA calculator, weighted assignments, etc but this will come a little bit later, just be patient, OK? We will continue ameliorating iStudiez Pro, so feel certain about that.

We thank you again for all your letters, warm feedback and support you are showing with your suggestions and ideas. It is really important for us and inspires for further feat of arms 😉
Of course we will not be able to include ALL your ideas into this one update, but please know that we will definitely consider them for the future.

Welcome iStudiez Pro (the new name for iStudent Pro) – version 1.0.3

The motivation for the change of app’s name is simple. Those of you who tried different schedule planners developed for iPhone before choosing our app will easily understand the reason: we consider iStudiez Pro unique in every respect and therefore we don’t want it to be associated with any other application that happened to bear similar name.

The new version is already available on App Store (update is free).

What’s new:
• App name changed to iStudiez Pro
• Fixed minor bugs related to iPhone OS 3.0 compatibility
• Traditional Chinese, Czech and Slovak languages added

We are now working to deliver the next update which will expand iStudiez Pro functions according to many requests that we have recently got from all of you guys. What we need is a bit of patience from you!

1.0.2 Version Submitted!

Hi there!

We have finally submitted 1.0.2 update and it is expected to be reviewed and approved by Apple within one week.

By the way, we were fortunate to add Chinese localization at the very last moment, with thanks to Stasean Keakvol.

We also would like to use this opportunity and express our gratitude to all volunteers who kindly helped us to add more languages to iStudent Pro: Cedric Ohle (German localization), Alexandre Salles (Portuguese), Florent Suc and Adrian Cacciola (French), Ruben Sissing (Dutch), Giorgio Romano (Italian), Gruber Kristóf (Hungarian).

You guys were amazing, your advice and recommendations were really significant!

Hello Japan!

Judging from our sales it appears that our app is very much successful in your country, so we would like to make it more suitable and convenient for the Japanese people.

And what can be more convenient than having the possibility of using the app you like in your own language? So we are kindly calling you guys to volunteer and help us localize iStudent Pro into the Japanese language.

In exchange we’ll supply you with promo code (promo code will let  you download iStudent Pro free of charge from AppStore). Also, you name will appear on the Info page of the Japanese localization.

Looking forward to hear from you!
Please send your feedback to  support@istudentpro.com

We want iStudent Pro to speak your language…

We have just started working on the next update of iStudent Pro and among new things and features that we plan to include in the app, we are thinking to add more languages for your convenience.

As you know, right now the app hosts English, French, Spanish, Russian and Ukrainian localizations. We’ve also received some generous offers from volunteers who will kindly help us with Italian, Portuguese (Brazil), Hungarian, Dutch and German localizations.

So now we are calling you fans of iStudent Pro to contribute to the development of the application and help us with the localization into the language of your country.

Your help will be much appreciated and your name will appear on the Info page in the localization made by you.

If you feel you could help us with translating iStudent Pro into your language, please e-mail us.
