iStudiez Pro Changelog

What's new in iStudiez Pro 2.0

Jun 7, 2019
  • NEW! Powerful feature - Tasks (available as part of paid Plan only).
  • With Tasks you can now split your projects/homework into smaller “sub-tasks” and focus separately on each of them.
  • Repeated tasks that due before or during each class are not a problem anymore.

New in iStudiez Pro 1.5.1 (Apr 24, 2019)

  • To improve the availability of the app and make it closer to students, we are migrating iStudiez Pro Cloud Sync to the Multiplatform Sync, available via subscription.

New in iStudiez Pro 1.5 (Apr 24, 2019)

  • Dark Mode for iStudiez Pro now available on macOS Mojave, follows your system settings.
  • And oh my! It’s not the dark side, it is the beauty of the dark, if you know what we mean ;)
  • Also, hope you like the new button we added in Planner, it switches between your Grade Graph and Course Statistics. Since now everything is kept at one place.

New in iStudiez Pro 1.4.6 (Jun 17, 2018)

  • The feature you’ve been asking for is now here. Your assignments can be seen in the Week pane of the app for easier planning of your working load. Check when your assignments are due and how much time you have before you should turn them in! Adds to your self-organization and to our karma.
  • Would you like to browse your schedule, like, fast and furious? Here you go! This update brings you the ability to swipe weeks in the Week pane with your touchpad.
  • Talking about better time organization. Those red exam days in the Week view became more visible for better differentiation.
  • Another elegant feature we may bet you’ll adore is the option to convert your class into exam event. Do it immediately with just a few clicks, and no need to add a separate exam entry. Simply right click on a class entry in the Overview and check “Convert to exam” option. Voilà! The aesthetic impression of your schedule in the Week pane is not ruined.
  • Those of you who rely heavily on the Calendar of iStudiez Pro, please continue reading. We have fixed the bug of reflecting the event that lasts for a few days in the Calendar of the app. The dots for the event are now shown for ALL days of the period of duration.
  • Hope you like the refreshed look of the icons in the app too. It was quite a while since we updated them, so we fixed that and they look yummy!
  • P.S. Replying to your comments - the app now takes much less valuable screen space in Full Screen mode, so you can easily use it along with other apps that will definitely improve your workflow.

New in iStudiez Pro 1.4.5 (Nov 7, 2017)

  • There was some random crash that was reported occasionally, mysteriously appeared and disappeared like a ghost. We nailed it finally.
  • We also removed some rocks on the road to High Sierra.
  • The Grades Graph has been improved to show your progress on weights by tracking different types of activities that are subject to grading.

  • Who said that online classes are a super vital feature any schedule planner should have?
  • Well, no need to wait anymore, we added BOTH to this update!

  • We actually had to do some fixing as well: shift schedule issue, holiday schedule refresh issue, percent GPA scale saving issue…
  • Oh, and if you wish you can turn off notifications on a device where you do not wish to see them. They won’t be disturbing you now on all your devices at once!
  • SHIFT SCHEDULE: all students who have shifting schedule (we call it weird, but whatever :)) will need to double check that everything is set up correctly. The reason for this is that we fixed issues introduced since version 1.2.
