Version 1.1 is Out!

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

In a massive improvement over their previous ways, Apple this time reviewed the latest upgrade of KanjiBox in only a couple hours (average waiting time used to be over two weeks)!

This latest version brings you:

Have fun and, if you like it, don’t forget to review the application in the iTunes Store: positive reviews go a long way at motivating me to keep working on cool new features!

KanjiBox 1.1β brings you… Reading mode!

Friday, February 12th, 2010

It’s only been a couple days that version 1.0 was released to the Apple Store, but 1.1 is already just around the corner.


Version 1.1 brings you two major features:
1. Integration with Pierre-Philippe di Costanzo’s awesome Japanese dictionary application: Kotoba! (clicking on a special link in detailed view directly opens Kotoba to the appropriate entry).
2. Reading quiz!

If you are a beta-tester, please download this latest beta and contact me with any comments or bug reports…

If beta testing goes well, I will upload the new version to the iTunes Store by the middle of next week.

Hallelujah!

Version 5.0.2 is available for download. Will only have taken *25* days for Apple to review it.
If you experience any crash after this upgrade, please contact me!

Update 0.5.1 is Out !

Tuesday, July 21st, 2009

Bug-fixing update 0.5.1 has finally hit the store. As usual, it is lagging a couple bug-fixes behind thanks to Apple slow-ass-ness, but you know the deal by now.

One important note: If you have been experiencing many crashes with 0.5.0, it is recommended you first delete the application from your iPod, before syncing again with iTunes (you can do this at any time and as many times as you want). This operation will unfortunately reset your KanjiBox stats, but it should greatly improve stability.

First Public Release of KanjiBox!

Tuesday, July 14th, 2009

After 2 full weeks of review process, Apple has finally let KanjiBox out of the cage!

It is now available for everybody to download on the iTunes store:
http://itunes.com/apps/kanjibox/

The introductory price has voluntarily been brought down, as a modest thank you to all the people who have been following this project from the start. Buy now if you want to save (a few cents) on the final price!

Note: Apple’s slow-ass reviewing process means that, as 0.5.0 is just released, 0.5.1 has been ready for over 10 days (it’s now in the pipeline and should be out within 2 weeks)… This small upgrade is 100% bug-fixing and performance improvement (and will be free for 0.5.0 users, of course). In the meantime, please bear with the many small imperfections and overall slowness of the current version. ごめんね〜
