Version 2 Will Release on March 31

By
We're finally done with the development of version 2, and now we're testing the application for bugs. Version 2 brings improvements to some features of the application, along with new features and bug fixes. Here is the complete change log for the new version:

Bug fixes: Journal, CompLock, ToDo List

General: 
Update Check added
Nap Alarm added with Dymaxion, Uberman and Everyman sleep cycle support

Journal:
Search added
Attachments feature added

Timetable Manager:
Modify details feature added
Today menu added

The Attachment feature in Journal lets you attach a picture to your journal entries, making it easier to store your memories. Only one picture per entry is allowed for now, and you can't add attachments to previously added entries.

The Nap Alarm feature lets you quickly set up an alarm for a nap, up to a maximum of 40 minutes (we believe a nap shouldn't last any longer). In future versions, we'll let you customize the alarm with options like having to solve math problems to turn off the alarm. We'll also integrate the Nap Alarm feature with the Flash Cards feature, so that you can revise the flash cards you don't remember clearly - on waking up you'll have to solve the flash cards you set, which you don't remember very clearly.

As for Timetable Manager, we have plans to expand on that as well, but more on that in a future post.

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...
