Dropbox -> iCloud

Dropbox has served StickyStudy well over the years (tips hat), but now it’s iCloud’s turn. Currently in testing, it will be introduced to all apps in the next update due June, 2017.

User Reviews

20 November, 2014

The more you guys out there support me with your feedback and positive reviews, the more I’ll keep polishing and adding to the apps. Thanks, all.

iTunes reviews over 3 months.

iOS6

20 November, 2014

iOS-6

Not entirely my choice but I’ll be removing support for iOS6 from all apps by the new year. Compatibility will start from iOS7.

Developing and testing for iOS6 using Xcode is no longer supported by Apple as standard. Of course, with fiddling there are ways to make it work but I’d rather spend time adding new features than having a hair-pulling battle with Xcode. Just to let you know.

iPhone 6 + iOS8

11 October, 2014

October is going to be a busy month: updates for all apps coming your way addressing iOS8 issues and making use of that lovely iPhone 6 real estate.

Minor Updates

19 February, 2014

Minor bug fixes, CSV import for Flash! and a new deck list in this round of updates. Available for download by the end of the month.

Work In Progress

19 December, 2013

I’m currently upgrading the Japanese app core data files to include radicals, full component breakdown and detailed reference codes for 6000 kanji (*cough*).

Flash! will also be getting some TLC with more standardised import/export, folders and multi side support sometime in the new year.

As always, your reviews and emails keep me in front of the Mac and continually updating the apps. Thanks everyone.

Flash! v1.6

Even Better

03 September, 2012

book

My tireless, constant and bad-for-my-health slaving over Xcode has produced another feature worthy of an update - an improved study algorithm.

The algorithm is now a mixture of timed and frequency based SRS study giving the best of both worlds by spreading your study over a longer period of time without overloading you when you miss a couple of sessions.

Coming to all apps within the month.

100,000

26 May, 2012

StickStudy (paid and free apps) has just hit the 100,000 downloads milestone. Gulp.

A big thank you to all who have helped in the development with suggestions and ideas - your medals are in the post. It truly is a pleasure (read: obsession) making these apps better and better.

More updates coming in June.

One Touch Backup

10 May, 2012

dropboxbox

After a lengthy battle with some misbehaving code (a nice way of saying I fixed a bug) the Dropbox username/password is now “Set once and forget” for backing up and restoring.

Updates are being uploaded as I speak.

iPad 3 + StickyStudy = :o)

18 March, 2012

This screenshot from the iPad 3 showing over 2000 kanji (Joyo kanji) has so many pixels that it’s too big to display on a full HD monitor! If you don’t mind making your display look tiny, click on the graphic below and be in awe..

StickyStudy makes heavy use of system fonts so it already looks silky smooth on the new iPad’s retina display without any updating.

(The Chinese and Flash! versions look similarly awesome.)

Flash!

01 January, 2012

There have been some reports of Flash! crashing after downloading certain decks. To prevent annoying any more users, I’ve taken the app down from the stores until I can fix the problem. Hopefully ready by next week.

SS + WWW = Flash!

29 November, 2011

As of next week, what you have in your flashcard app will be entirely up to you.

Flash! is the slickest way to choose from millions of decks from around the world and increasing your knowledge.

No annoying registration or usernames required - just download and go.
