There are more than 100 high quality sounds in your arsenal. blipr also makes a great replacement for text messaging. blipr is messaging with attitude. =)
To celebrate blipr’s release, we are issuing a challenge! If blipr makes it into the Top 10 Paid Apps (over all) on the App Store by November 30, 2009 we will make all of our other applications (including BillMinder) free for one week*.
Check out blipr on the App Store.
* Push Notifications in BillMinder will not be free.
We’ve been hard at work for a month and a half on version 2.0. It’s our biggest update yet and we decided to make it free for existing users. It’s on the store!
Changes in 2.0:
- BEAUTIFUL AND EASIER TO USE NEW INTERFACE!
- BEAUTIFUL New Icon!
- Status icons
- Account icons
- 1-tap to mark bills paid
- Improved calendar
- Email a backup
- More informative errors on restoring a backup (e.g. wrong file type)
- Ask to change future bills or just current one
- Collectors are now Accounts
- Improved performance
- Ability to set negative bill amount has been restored (by popular demand!)
- Alert count is now shown on the Bills tab
- Bug fixes
BillMinder 1.6.1 was just approved by Apple (Thanks!). It should hit your phones soon and bring the fixes/features mentioned here. We’re already hard at work on version 2.0, which will bring an entirely rewritten interface that’s easier to use and easier on the eyes.
So BillMinder 1.5.1 is out with a bunch of fixes and general goodness. We also just pushed BillMinder Lite 1.5, which is basically BillMinder 1.5.1. This is cool because users of BillMinder Lite can now upgrade to BillMinder and take their data with them via our spiffy backup feature. Hawt. Oh yea, we also just finished a silly little free app called Randy. More on that later.
And here are some fresh screenshots of the new UI:
All 3 of our apps have recently had major/minor updates. We’re working on some new stuff, which we hope you’ll like. Thanks!
Go Grab it! Don’t forget to review it on the App Store!
PunchClock has been in Apple’s queue for a few days. Look for it on your phones soon. It addresses a crash upon deleting punches.
We pushed PunchClock 1.1 to Apple last night. It adds an info bar to the top of the main view. This bar shows up when you punch in and shows when you punched in as well as how long you’ve been punched in.
HUGE thanks to the team at Apple for approving BillMinder 1.3.1 in less than a day. It should hit phones within a few hours.
Our biggest BillMinder update yet has been released to the App Store. This release adds password protection and additional fields like account number, confirmation number, and notes to BillMinder. Enjoy!
But it’s not yet on the App Store. Still Confused. Hopefully it shows up tomorrow.
Update: This was my fault. I lowered the price and didn’t notice the available drop down was set to December 2009.
We’ve just pushed BillMinder 1.3 to Apple for approval. Look for it on your phones soon. We’ve also updated BillMinder screenshots on return7.com so go check them out if you’re so inclined.
Apple has approved PunchClock 1.0.1. Version 1.0.2 is on the way with some UI fixes as well as a meaningful csv file name for downloaded reports. We intend on adding email functionality in the future (possibly version 1.1 or 1.2).
We’ve been hard at work on PunchClock, our latest iPhone application. We just pushed the final 1.0 build to Apple. Don’t fret, we’ve also been working on BillMinder 1.3, which adds a ton of new (requested) features! We’re hoping to push this update to Apple very shortly.

Manage your time
