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.

iStudiez Pro promo in Apple Stores

Hi there! It seems that our app is being promoted in Apple Retail Stores in the US.

So in case you see the demo version exhibited in any store and can make some photos and send to us, we will be happy to give you a promo code in exchange.

Please only send us photos where the printed ad or demo version can be properly seen. When taking photos please ensure that they show the Apple Store interior as well (so that we understand that the photo has really been taken in one of the Apple Stores not somewhere else).

Thank you in advance for your cooperation!

06 Sep 2009 Thanks for everyone who have sent us photos of iStudiez Pro promo in Apple Stores.  We’ve received lots of confirmations that our app was in fact promoted by Apple, and it’s great 🙂
So thanks again, no more photos needed as we are out of our promo codes for version 1.0.3.

Prioritize your assignments

You can quickly change priority of any of your uncompleted assignments. Just double tap the check circle next to the assignment name and the balloon with normal, medium and high levels of priority will appear. Then choose the needed priority level and voilà! When you need to mark your prioritized task as completed, tap the check circle once.

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!
