It might have been traffic from a link you posted that I followed back to this forum.

It is very much a work in progress. Some of the new features are my ideas, but a lot of them come from customer feedback.

I have been continually improving my other software product ( http://www.perfecttableplan.com/ ) for more than 10 years.

There have been a number of requests for an iOS version and it is on the ‘wishlist’. Unfortunately the economics aren’t very compelling for a small independent developer like myself. It would be a lot of work to make the UI suitable for a touch/mobile. Also $10 is considered outrageously expensive in the app store and Apple would take 30% of that. So it isn’t high on the wishlist at the moment. I am concentrating on improving the Windows and Mac versions. But priorities may change and it may be viable at some point.
