Version 0.3 Releasing This Week!

By
We're nearly done with the development of version 0.3, which is mainly a bunch of improvements for each of the existing features. 

Notes now has a new interface and you can save all your notes in a file, apart from viewing all your notes in a single window rather than multiple different ones.

CompLock steals the spotlight in this version, with a major update. CompLock now includes "work cycles". A work cycle is basically composed of a work period where the computer is CompLocked, and a break period. You can specify the durations of the work and the break periods, and also the number of cycles. There are also preset options, which have been used by experts themselves.

The Flash Cards now gives more statistics about your learning progress after each session.

We're also adding a new feature to help you with your morning exercise. The exercise given has been scientifically proven to be the most effective, and it lasts just 8 minutes :) 

Productivity 0.3 will also be fully portable, so instead of a setup file you'll simply receive a portable version of the app itself in the download, and this will cut down the download size to around 25 MB, just over half the download size of the previous version.

Version 1.0 to Release Next Week

By
We're nearly done with the development of version 1.0, and we can finally release version 1.0. This version comes with the feature which was requested by the person who gave the idea for the app (Bhavana Sanghi), a Timetable Manager, apart from quite a few bug fixes. We have, of course, received some suggestions for a few UI changes and other stuff, but we'll roll those out in the next update, since our primary goal is to get a bug-free version out first. The new version shouldn't be a much bigger download than the previous version, so expect a download of around 22 MB or so. We'll let you know when the next version is up for download.

Productivity may go Open Source

By
We're considering making Productivity an open source application, in addition to being free. This means that we will host the source code of the application on a website, and you can view and modify it as per your needs. Making the application open source has the advantage that other developers can help in identifying and fixing bugs and also give suggestions and create derivative works of the project. We'd like your opinion on this matter about whether or not the application should go open source, and with a positive response, we'll take the required steps to do so.

Version 5.0 Coming Soon!

By
We're finally coming up with a newer version of the app! However, this update will only apply to Journal, and not affect the other products in Productivity. As per current plans, we intend to release Journal as a separate app on its own, but users of Productivity will also get the new update. The new Journal app is now cross-platform, which means it will run on Windows, Mac OS and Linux. We've rebuilt it from the ground-up, with a fresh new UI! Apart from the same great features you're used to, the new version now encrypts your journal using AES-256 encryption, so you'll have to provide a password to open your journals. This keeps your private information safe. Among other features planned, you'll also be able to now add multiple images to each day's journal entry. Unfortunately, all these new additional features do mean that we now use a newer file format (.ejournal) instead of the older .journalx. The new format allows us to store more informat...
