I am working on an improved version of Roman Numerals with more conversion options and possibly an iPad version, however I wanted to focus on some of the issues that people have been having. This small update adds auto-repeat to the delete button so that it is easier to clear MCMXXVII from the screen instead of shaking your iPhone or iPod Touch.

The TimesTables iPhone app has been recently updated to 2.3.3. The main two features in this version are that it will automatically start the app with the last player, and it will also show the last quiz that was played so that it can be played again easily. If you have downloaded 2.3.2 then you will need to download 2.3.3 because this fixes a bug where the highscores were no longer selectable.

A new update to TimesTables should be available in the appstore. This version is a minor update that allows the question presentation to be mixed up. Previously there was the option to decide how to present the questions because in different countries the times tables are shown differently, for example:
- 1×7, 2×7, 3×7, 4×7, 5×7, …
- 7×1, 7×2, 7×3, 7×4, 7×5, …
Now, on the configuration page, there is the option to mix these up so that the questions can appear in either way. Sometimes it is easy to learn that 2 times 5 is 10, but what is 5 times 2?!

Times Tables has been updated to 2.3. This version adds support for multiple players, each with their own highscores, unlocked tables, and progress. If you have more than one child or want to use it in a classroom setting then this upgrade means that you can you let each child play without having to reset the progress or highscores each time.

Roman Numerals has been updated to 1.4. The main feature of this version is copy & paste. With this you can, for example, convert a roman numeral, copy the conversion and paste it in email, or copy a roman numeral from a webpage and paste it directly into the app without having to type it out.
You need to have upgraded to at least iPhone OS 3.0 (on either an iPhone or iPod Touch) to use this update, because copy and paste doesn’t work with previous versions of the iPhone OS.

An update to Roman Quiz is now available in the app store. In this version the quiz mode has been revamped to make the experience more interesting. The custom quiz mode has been replaced by four specific quizzes that test the various types of Roman Numerals. Each quiz starts off in Easy mode, and then in the following 3 modes each quiz is timed with the time available reducing in each level!
I have more plans for Roman Quiz so update to this version and let me know what you think.

TimesTables 2.1 has been approved by the app store and should now be available. This version adds 11x and 12x questions to each of the tables and also tries to simplify the way that information is shown so that is understandable even if the child cannot read yet.
The 11x and 12x questions are not enabled by default and this must be performed by using the Settings program and selected the 11x and 12x option.
I have also added a page on facebook and on uservoice where you can submit requests or vote on existing ideas.

A new version of TimesTables has been approved by the app store and should be available shortly. In this update it is possible to reset the high scores and the unlocked tables. To do this you must go into Settings and choose either “Reset unlocked tables” or “Reset highscores”.
In case you weren’t aware in the Settings you can choose whether the questions appear as 7×1=7 or 1×7=7 so that you can match how your child studies them in school.
