Meet iStudiez Pro iOS 7 update!

By iStudiez Team November 28, 2013

We are proud to inform that the new iStudiez Pro update for iOS 7 and OS X 10.9 will be released on November 28th, 2013. For cloud sync to work, you will need to update the app on both your iOS AND OS X devices.

It’s a MUST to make iStudiez Pro data backup BEFORE you update the app.

We hope you’ll enjoy the totally new look of the app, as well as we do! Sure thing that we will continue bringing you new features and make further improvements.

IMPORTANT: iOS 5 and OS X 10.6 are NO longer supported.

Thank you and stay tuned!

Fernando

So if we don’t update any device, will cloud syncing simply stop working? Or it’s just that the new version will not work with the previous one? Because I haven’t updated to iOS 7 yet and I don’t plan to do it, but I still want cloud sync

  Hi Fernando!
  
  If you do not update the app on any device (iOS and OS X) – the app will still work and sync.
  Once you update the app on any device to the latest version – it won’t sync with the previous one.
  
  Hope to be helpful.

I regret buying your app. I am deleting iStudiez and looking for alternative.
Daniel Vargas

I do not see the update for iOS nor MAC OS…
Tom

What time?! I’m so excited! It’s the 28th and I don’t see the update! Ahhh!
Blake Hawksworth

Not on the App Store UK?

  For unknown reason the update was not released at a suggest time. We are sorry for that.
  As of now it is already available for download.
  
  We regret for making you wait so long. Please accept our apologies for the inconveniences you have suffered.

I love this app buy so far the 28th of November is almost over, what’s going on with this update?
Dennis K

Today it’s the 29th and there is neither an iPad- nor an iPhone-Update since may in the AppStore (Germany)
Mark

When will the update be out today?
Richard

Don’t think it will be out today. It’s 9 est and it’s still not up. Oh well glad it’s coming soon!
Tim

No update at 11:12 EST yet, my wish didn’t come true! I’ve been looking forward to this D:
iPero

Colin

You guys must be kidding…
J d

I’m not seeing an update…
Eli

↑_↑ I can’t agree more…
James

Yeh it’s not out…

I checked AppShopper and it’s not been updated on any platforms.
Gus

Great job guys! Just downloaded the update and it’s beautiful!

Looking forward to the calendar integration you promised (being able to see classes from within the Calendar app).

  Hi Gus!
  
  Thanks! We are glad you like the update.
  We will try to do our best to bring more features in the future.
Matthew

Exams are hard to notice on it :(((
Harrison

The new designs for the iphone and ipad were absolutely stunning. Thank you!

Is it just me though, or has the mac desktop app not changed at all? I updated it today and then went to the istudiez pro app page in the mac app store and it said the latest update was released today, on the 29th nov.
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Harrison!
  
  The OS X version was updated to be compatible with the new iOS version of the app.
  As of now the appearance of OS X version of iStudiez Pro remains unchanged.
Ulrik Bing

So, if I get the update and still use 10.6.8 I can’t sync from iPad to cumputer or vice versa?
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Ulrik!
  
  If you update OS X version of the app you would have to update the one on iOS, otherwise they won’t sync.
joe

You guys screwed the calendars up. In week view, the days are out of place, it shows Thursday in the Friday slot, etc. They are all shifted by a day. The mini calendar shows that it is Nov. 29th but says its a saturday. Screwing up the calendars right before finals was not a great idea.
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Joe!
  
  Thank you for your concern. We are aware of the issue you have faced and currently we are working hard to fix it.
Paul Brenneman

I must say i think you guys really stuffed it with this one. The old design was very easy to navigate, the new one is way too simplistic. The color coding on assignments in the old version made it easy to quickly notice when things are due, now its just a big white page with some words. I hate it, seriously. Ive been in love with the app for the past year and a half, its helped me immensly in college. The old app was great, this is a totally new app, and its nowhere near as easy to navigate and use quickly. Please add some color

  Hi Paul!
  
  Thank you for your suggestion. We will try to improve the app in the future.

Hanna

I hate the new update!! Is not better cant see anything, its sucks!!!!!!!!!!
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Hanna!
  
  Thank you for your comment.
Marilyn

I hate the new look one of the reasons I got this app over other one was the look. It was very easy to read; however, the new update makes things hard to see. This is a poor choice of an update especially for college students who need to be able to glance at their schedules and see what is going on. If this look is here to stay I will be getting rid of this app and be sure to tell people not to get it. I mean come on I can hardly see the colors I used to color code my classes.
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Marilyn!
  
  Thank you for your concern and feedback.
Raeann

I have had this app for years on my iPhone, than I bought a Mac for college and decided it would be a good choice so I could put all of my class work in one convent spot. It was great, I could sync everything with the touch of a button. Then, this update happened! You lost it. The calendar is all messed up, I can’t sync anything and its calculating my GPA all wrong. My iPhone app isn’t even running correctly either. Please fix!
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Raeann!
  
  Thank you for your comment. The issues are going to be fixed soon. Sorry for the inconveniences the new update has brought.
John

I agree. Bad update. The calendar looks way to plain and you can barely see the colored dots. Maybe you could add a choice of calendar layouts. Give back the old one. It was much easier to read. If not, I will definitely be switching apps. I’ve had this one for almost 2 years. Too bad.
Cody

Thanks for the hard work and for not charging for the update!
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Cody!
  
  Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate that.
  We are glad you like the new update.
James

I was just wondering when you will change the look of the desktop version to be more like the iOS version. Im kind of over the whole “fake wood and paper” thing. I LOVE the new iOS version though. It just feels like I can do more with it, even if that is probably all in my head
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi James!
  
  We are glad you like the new update.
  As of now we do not plan to change the UI of iStudiez Pro for OS X, but we would take your suggestion into consideration.
  
  Hope to be helpful.
Melissa

-as others have stated the calendar days are messed up in the iOS app, but also my class times have all shifted by a few hours.
-I updated the OSX app and it won’t open now for me whatsoever. It bounces in the dock a couple of times and crashes. I’m running 7.5 if that makes a difference.
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Melissa!
  
  Thank you for your concern. We are already aware of this issue and currently working hard to fix it ASAP. Hope it won’t take long.
  We regret for the inconveniences you suffer.
Eddie J

I updated to the new version on my iPhone 5, works. Not my iMac asked for the update or it would not sync. I have 10.7.5 on my iMac, and guess what happened? Crash, after crash, after crash. The update said it would work on 10.7. I know nobody on your team will lose their job for this, but it is HUGE error on somebody to STATE clearly that it will work on 10.7, when it clearly dos not. Seems like you guys were in a rush to get this version out, but clearly there are major glitches. Hope you get all the issues fixed soon!
PeTe

New Mac release is buggy. Here is what I reported:

While using the app on my Mac (OS X 10.9.0) I’ve encountered the following problem: after update, my calendar is out of synchronization; all my classes were shifted one day ahead of their actual scheduled day; i.e. Monday classes are now Sunday classes.

While using the app on my Mac (OS X 10.9.0) I’ve encountered the following problem: the assignments given a due date of “someday” now read “May 3, 3000”.
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi PeTe!
  
  The issues you have faced will be fixed in the nearest future.
  Sorry for the inconveniences.
Colin

Hi,

The new update is very cool. Except when sometimes I lost connection, it always prompts me to reenter my password for sync, which is very annoying.
Bin

I updated mine on my macbook pro and nothing changed except for the fact that it messed up the dates and did not sync.
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Bin!
  
  It is compatible with the latest iOS version of the app.
  The messed up data issue will be fixed in the nearest update.
  
  Thank you for your understanding and patience.
Kristine

I have updated the app on my Mac and both my iPad and iPhone. However they do not seem to be syncing anymore and I am getting several prompts to sign in over and over again. Has anyone else had this problem?
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Kristine!
  
  Currently we are investigating the issue you have faced.
  Can you provide us with more details, for example – do you use other applications besides iStudiez Pro, when does it happen, does the app sync automatically or you do it manually, do you have a constant Internet connection or you change your location and Internet connection as well, etc.?
  
  Please email us to support(at)istudentpro(dot)com. Hope to hear from you soon.

Hi, i updated yesterday to version 1.7 on my iPod touch 4g (iOS 6) but saw no changes at all (except a change in the displayed version number). I see that iOS 6 is supported in this update but does that include the new interface? thanks for your help
Dan J.

I loved this app before the update. Now, compared to the old look, I personally feel that the ‘iOS 7’ skin you guys stuck on is rather dull, cluttered, and overall unimaginative. The old design was perfect; I’m confused as to why you decided to radically change something that didn’t need fixing.

At the very least, could you allow users to switch to the old look in the settings? I personally feel the app was much easier to use and look at with the old style. I hate to say this, but as of now I really regret updating.
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Dan!
  
  Unfortunately it is not able to downgrade the app on iOS 7.
  
  Thank you for your feedback.
Emmy

I updated iOS, I updated iStudiez, and now your app shuts down every time I open it. I NEED my schedule. Please advise and please tell me my information is still stored.
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Emmy!
  
  Did you create iStudiez Pro data backup before sync?
  Did you try to reinstall the app?
Pieter

Hi,

Since the new update it asks me to enter my password every time I open the app.. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for your help

Nicolas

Hello,
I updated your app but I don’t see any change. I’m under iOS 6.
I deleted it and reinstalled it but it didn’t changed anything.
What should I do ?
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Nicolas!
  
  The new appearance of iStudiez Pro is available on iOS 7.
  The UI of the app remains unchanged on iOS 6.
  
  Hope to be helpful.

My days are wrong – the view is now “Saturday” to “Friday”, instead of “Sunday” to “Saturday”. Also, all my Monday classes are listed under Sunday, Tuesday classes are listed under Monday, etc.

Is this one of the bugs you are working on?

Also, could you PLEASE add more colors? I have a lot of things to keep track of and I am running out of colors! Thank you.
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  The issue you have faced has already been fixed.
  We have submitted a new update to Apple several days ago. Hope it will be approved soon.
  
  We regret for the inconveniences you suffer.
John

also adding a class and setting the start time to 8am.. and the end time to 9am, after rotating the time picker around 24hours makes the class go past 40 odd hours.. if your not watching the duration text at the bottom you end up with a MESS!
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi John!
  
  Thank you for your concern. We will fix the issue in the future updates of the app.
Laine

Im really not liking the new look. You guys lost one of the best things about your app — the interface. Please please please revert back to the old look or AT LEAST have an option in the settings to switch back to the old look. In that way, we would all be happy.
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Laine!
  
  The previous appearance of iStudiez Pro is still available on OS 6.
Sara

One of my devices is updated, the other isn’t. I don’t want to update on the other one but I still want to sync. PLEASE MAKE IT SO I CAN SYNC BETWEEN UPDATED AND NOT UPDATED DEVICES!! If I had known this would happen, I never would have updated on the first device.
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Sara!
  
  The latest version of the app can sync with the latest version of iStudiez Pro only.
  Unfortunately it is not possible to make it sync with the previous version.
Marcus

Hello, I purchased iStudiez Pro at august of 2011and I have been using it for a while since then, mainly for the cloud sync, i updated my OS to Mavericks and some hours ago I decided going back to mountain lion again, problem is I reinstalled iStudiez and I can’t see any of my courses or instructors, i wonder if the problem was for the downgrade or what, still… shouldn’t those problems had been avoided with the could sync? is there any way of getting my data back?

Thank you for your time
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Marcus!
  
  Have you created iStudiez Pro data backup before OS X downgrade? Which email address is used for sync?
  Please email us to support(at)istudentpro(dot)com.
B

What issue has been fixed? It’s very frustrating to have this bug come during FINALS!! I keep my schedule on there and the day shift is driving me crazy.. my schedule is all wrong!!

It’s been 10 days and it’s still not fixed. If you have that big of a bug, HOW COULD YOU RELEASE IT WHEN WE DEPEND ON IT SO MUCH??? And not give us an option to downgrade, either??
John

i noticed that one of my post is still set to “Comment is awaiting moderation”.. is that because you don’t want others to see the vast ranging number of bugs and problems that iStudiez has?? and that was just a few i noticed by opening and playing with the update for a few mins!
Charles Hardy

Hi guys. I think it would be nice to give the iOS 6 users the option to have the iOS interface as unfortunately some of us haven’t got the money to get an iPod 5 or iPhone at all! It just seems a bit backwards and unfair for some users to be stuck with the old wooden app! Maybe do this once all the issues with the ios 7 are ironed out and fixed!
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Charles!
  
  We are trying to keep native user interface for each of the iOS version.
  Thus, the design of the app for iOS 6 remains unchanged and the old design is not applicable for iOS 7 devices.
John

LOL.. i see you deleted my BIG list of all the bugs in iStudiez.. not to worry, as i can bet most people have seem some and too have had enough with istudiez.. if i found that many bugs in using the app for a few mins i can only imagine that you spent time trying to make it “look good” and put no time into making it “work properly”
better off using iOS calendar and reminders.. Siri can add them with ease and won’t STUFF UP ALL MY REMINDERS like istudiez did!
Jocelyn

I really enjoy this app and it has been a tremendous help for the last year and a half of nursing school! One suggestion I wanted to see if I could throw your way was adding the capability to deem a class as “Pass/Fail”. All of my clinicals are P/F and my calculated GPA in the app never matches my actual GPA because of this (I think). Maybe I’m just overlooking something? Thanks for all your hard work!
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Jocelyn!
  
  Thank you for the suggestion, we will think about it.
  We will try to improve grading scale in the future.
  
  Hope to be helpful.
Luci

I mostly like the new version. But I miss the red flag icons that exams had. It was much better organizationally and visually to be able to look at a month at a time and see what weeks had (possibly multiple) exams. With the new update, the “large” dots are barely more visible than dots for regular classes. Bring back the flags!
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Luci!
  
  Thank you for the suggestion!
  As of now days in red font with red dots contain exams.

When is the desktop application getting updated, sync is never synchronized, ironic isnt it? i sync on my ipad, my mac signs out, i sync on my mac, my ipad never receives the update. Id also like to see a new visual style, simple flat design just like the mobile app, for the desktop.
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Matthew!
  
  Thank you for the comment and suggestion. We have sent you an email with the instructions of how to fix your sync issue.
  Please check.
  
  Hope to be helpful.
Michaela

I updated to the new istudiez on my iphone, not realizing that it was incompatible with the original iPad. I am unable to update on my iPad, and have no way to sync the 2 devices. I depend on this app for my school work. The fact that you have made your app unaccessible to me simply because of an older device is unacceptable. I have no way to restore the old version and I don’t have the money to buy a whole new iPad.
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Michaela!
  
  The least version of iStudiez Pro does not support iOS version earlier than 1.6, OS X version earlier than 10.7.
  We regret for the inconveniences you may suffer.
Justin

Any update on the timeline for the iCal update? I would really like to see my classes show up on my universal calendar.
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hello Justin!
  
  Currently we can’t name an exact date of required feature release.
Herica

I just want the old design back, pleaseeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!
- https://istudentpro.com iStudiez Pro Team
  
  Hi Herica!
  
  The old design of iStudiez Pro is still available on the iOS 6.
  Hope to be helpful.
