Nabeelo,

I don't have an iPad, but I heard that there is a 2x button on all iPhone/iPodTouch apps so that they are not too small on the iPad.

Until RTM launches an upscaled version, you could always use the iPhone OS web version:
https://i.rememberthemilk.com/

With the 2x button, all the text is really jagged and ugly. So you have to choose between tiny in the middle of the screen or jagged and using most the screen. The current WiFi only model means on the go or at work, I can't use the web version.

Plus you have to use the small iPhone keyboard (which is hard to type on on the iPad's large screen) instead of the full iPad keyboard.

Just adding that an iPad native app would be nice. +1

Thanks for everyone's feedback on this -- I just wanted to re-post part of our blog post about version 1.3.0 of our iPhone app:

"Hey, what about the iPad?
While there's nothing specific in this release for the iPad, "Develop a new iPad app" was the #3 mobile request in our recent mobile survey. You can be sure that Bob T. Monkey is taking those survey results seriously. ;)"

Hope this helps... :)

+1 for an iPad version :)

Would love this! 2x mode doesn't do the screen justice.

Thanks for the post Emily. You may want to consider that the survey came out before people played with an iPad. I don't actually remember my response to that part of the survey, but I do know before I played with an iPad, I had expected iPhone apps to work well on it and they don't. I've had to fall back on the rtm website when I can get wifi since the app just isn't that good on the iPad.

I have a tip if anyone is interested. Go into Settings on your iPad. Then select General and finally Accessibility. Set "Zoom" to On. Now, launch RTM. With it open, use 3 fingers and double-tap the screen. This gives you a larger display than 1x but not distorted like 2x. To go back to regular display, just double-tap with three fingers again. I am running several of my older apps this way.

Hey Cherice

That works great, thanks! Definitely helps make rtm usable until an iPad app comes out...

+1 for an iPad-optimized version as soon as you can. The iPad can be the ultimate walk-around clipboard...

also +1 for an ipad app !!!!

+1+1+1 for the iPad Version.
Thanks in advance...

+1 for iPad version

This is what the iPhone version looks like with the x2 expansion on the iPad image

It makes kittens cry :(

+1 for iPad (posting from an iPad)

+10 for an iPad version

+1 from japan. I even pay more if rtm releases this.

+1 more for iPad support. Just gotta have it and the iPhone version on the iPad just doesn't cut it (sorry to others who have been trying). You really get spoiled quickly by applications that take advantage of the screen real estate on the iPad to develop much better iPad applications even though there are corresponding iPhone apps.

+1, managing tasks on the iPad's big screen taking better advantage of the space and keyboard would be fantastic.

+1, please please make an iPad version. It will be nice to have more real estate to work with than the small iPhone screen. Looking forward to great things in the next rev.

I'm sure you're working on an iPad app by now... but in case it'll get done faster, +1 from me too.

I'm longingly checking the App Store each day

+1 for iPad version.

Yep, +1 from me as well on this. The iPhone version is just too ugly to use when zoomed and the web version just isn't as nice.

+1,please.

Piggybacking. +1

+1 from me too - Go Monkey Go :)

+1 for an iPad version here as well.

Why not...everybody's doing it...

+1+1 for the ipad version again.

+ 1 for an Ipad version of the application... i hope that the ipad version would include new features, like a more caledarish look and feel....

+1 please!

+1 for iPad version

Me2 for an iPad version... But take the time to leverage the format... maybe in version 1.1. :)

Evernote did a very nice job for their iPad app made it pure grooviness.

I no longer carry paper and pen to meetings (WritePad plus Pogo) and I am booting my laptop less and less.

I'd love to see an iPad enhanced app. (posted from my iPad)

+10000 for iPad

+1

Looks to me there is more than enough +1s that this may happen soon, but I'll add myself to the list.

The iPhone app is ok on the iPad, but I agree, 2x mode just looks too yucky so I usually just keep it in 1x. But having something that fills the screen, looks good, and even better, takes advantage of greater screen realestate, would be terrific!

Nice work guys.

+1 for iPad version.

iPad version: Yes, please!

+2

Please add an ipad version. This would really add to the RTM user experience.

+1000 for iPad version. No 1 app for iPad!

+1 for iPad version... I would never be able to put this thing down.

+1 for iPad version!

I won't buy an iPad until there's an iPad specific app!

me 2 me 2!!!

+1 for ipad, and like most people. I'd pay for the ipad app

+1 :-)

PLEASE!!!! +1

+1 iPad versión

+1 for iPad version !!

An iPad version would be great.

In the meanwhile, I've been using RTM on Safari... I just added an RTM shortcut to the Home Screen (in Safari, click the + button on the browser and select "add to Home Screen." It adds a button to your iPad menu, as though it were an app.)

(posted from my iPad, of course)

Another voice for the iPad version!

+1! (To add to bruss147's comment) I bet that if you re-survey people in the next few months, you'll find that more and more people will want an iPad app prioritized.

PLEASE release an iPad version quickly. RTM is my #1 app for personal and work productivity. I use the web and iPhone versions. We need an iPad version. HURRY HURRY HURRY.

+1 ...I love my iPad

Another vote for an iPad app please. Using the iPhone app is horrible and so is using the site now that it's clear just how great an iPad app could be.

Also Voting for the iPad App, Please take the time to design a nice, stylish and fast working app that makes fun planning the tasks on the iPad.

Feels like overkill, but if you are going on numbers, add me to the list!

+1,000,000 iPad!

+1 for iPad version

+1 for iPad version
(btw, love the enhancements on the iphone version - shortcut to tags, etc)

I need an ipad version of this on my new digital clipboard!

My pro account expired today, and I have decided to wait to renew until there is an Ipad version available. The website version works horribly on the iPad, and using the iPhone client is just frustrating. As a result, I find I am just not utilizing Remember the Milk as much. I hope there is an IPad client soon!

I agree: +1 for ipad

The iPad came out in the UK yesterday, and so a shout from across the pond for an iPad version! I love RTM, i use it to run my life!

After scouring the App store yesterday and finding out that NON of the iPad specific apps will sync - please make one!

I also think you should do the survey again. I have an android device and use RTM on that but would still love a specific iPad app.

+1 iPad

Those not wanting to wait, or have to use RTM in 2x zoon can install an app called ForceFull. You won't be able to tell that it is not an iPad app, other than for the lack of iPad widgets that I think we can expect in an upcoming version.

+1 for RTM in HD for IPAD!

+1 iPad or improve web site to be more productive with touch based devices

+182 for a native iPad version (even a paid one), for RTM is my main productivity tool at my own law firm. Really important one.

Strech the app out to fit the screen estate as a universal app would be cool, but I crave for a native one, born with the iPad in mind (see the great jobs guys at Culturedcode have done with Things).

Also patiently waiting for the iPad version!

+1 iPad.

+1 iPad!

struyk,
Regarding the survey, be sure to note Emily's response above; there's a relevant note in our blog post about the recent iPhone app's update. ;)

Hotdamn I just got the craziest idea how about an iPad version of Rtm. wouldn't that be great? Seriously you guys please !1 ^asap #iPad

I might as well add my $0.02 here too - iPad version please :-)

i second the request: an ipad app would be fantastic!

+1 for and iPhone app and the first vote for an HTML5 version of the WebApp to make it usable on the iPad. While it currently looks great on the browser, it's not easy to use. But the functionality of the "App" could be built into an HTML 5 website - providing a choice between the two.

Hi Bob,

Can you give us a hint .... when will you be ready to submit the app for iPad?

Here's a workaround for the iPad:

If you jailbreak the ipad using Spirit (http://spiritjb.com/) you can install afterwards an application from the Cydia installer called "Fullforce". (see review here: http://www.tipb.com/2010/05/21/fullforce-ipad-jailbreak-app-review/)

This allows to run iphone apps on the ipad in a full size / better resolution than you would normally get (especially when you enlarge an iphone app with the 2x button).

Although not taking full advantage of the iPad capabilities in terms of UI, rememberthemilk with fullforce runs quite ok.

+1 for iPad version please!

+1 for iPad version ! thank you VERY MUCH...

+1 please

+1 for iPad version! (Also, please be cool and make it an iPhone/iPad + app so we only need to keep track of one app for both devices.)

Another +1. Yes, we've seen the responses about the survey results, but perhaps an update would quell the anxious masses. :)

Also, +1 on the Evernote sync suggestion as well!

Bob is still very much hard at work on the iPad app (we've given him an unlimited supply of bananas, so we could have one very overweight monkey by the time this thing is finished!).

We don't have an ETA yet, but we've got Bob going as fast as humanly (simianly?) possible. I know that everyone here would like to see the app released, well, like yesterday (as ashujoshi says)... trust me, I would too. :)

We're excited to share the app just as soon as we can -- thanks for everyone's patience on this one! :)

thank you, emily ... thats great news :D
I'm really looking forward to use rtm app on my iPad and I appreciate your hard work on it.

It is very nice to see that you, uh....Bob, are working on it. Thanks for the update.

Thanks for the update. My iPad will likely never leave my side once you release this...

Thanks Bob!

Agree that this is great news. Go Bob Go!

+1 for iPad (so happy to hear it is in development!)

I'm trialling the iPod touch app right now and have found it very useful. Would definitely consider subscribing if a good iPad app is produced.

+1 for the iPad app, definitely worth putting some effort into taking advantage of all the extra screen re-estate. A lot of iPhone -> iPad apps are rightly being slated due to them just slapping an HD logo onto their Apps and re-scaling it to the larger screen with no additional functionality or improved UI.

I am sure your Monkey will do a great job :)

Look forward to the iPad version of Remember the Milk. There really isn't a great option for managing tasks on the device until then.

+1 for a version on that new Apple thingy. What's it called again?

identitylab,
Our last update still applies: "We're still very much hard at work on our iPad app, and we're excited to share the app just as soon as we can.

"Thanks for your patience!"

so an update or a post from RTM would be really helpful. I am holding out for the iPad app ... please let us know if this is going to happen soon or not.

+1

One annoying thing about iOS apps is that developers seem have to be vague about release plans given that they don't know if or how long it will take for the app to make it through the App Store approval process. I've been waiting eagerly since April for iPad versions of a couple different apps from developers who have hinted that an iPad version is in the works but won't give any hints on when it might be available.

Just going to jump on the bandwagon here too...

Went PRO and want an iPad version a.s.a.p. ! I want to use the iPad professionally - but w/o iPad-version not possible. Please !!!

+1 Please!

+1 for me too, keeping the ball rolling here...

An ipad version is absolutely required to be relevant and strike while the iron is hot. There aren't many good ones.

My subscription is coming up for renewal and and an ipad version is definitely needed to continue.

I am really looking forward to seeing the iPad app when it's ready, honestly the ipad has shocked me by being as useful as it is, but I miss a really usable RTM on here. Even a few tweaks to the desktop site might be a welcome change, or making swipes work in the iPhone web version when loaded from iPad.

Either way, RTM Team, you guys have been great about releasing things only when they're ready, even to the testing group. I have always been happy with your changes, and I eagerly await bob's newest masterpiece.

+1 for me! As Justin said above, I am also eagerly await bob's newest masterpiece.

I couldn't agree more. I want to use RTM on the ipad so badly, but just can't due to the size.

Please, please, please get on this fast...:-)

If you make a RTM app for the iPad, my last reason not to get one goes away...

I will be keeping a close eye on the blog!

We're up to 5 months since the last official response. Nice! Guess Emily is really busy. That or she spends most of her days at the beach with RTM's in-house app developer.

Hi desenso,

Sorry it's getting difficult to track replies from our team members in this topic (we need to fix that!). andrewski last responded here 15 days ago, and I mentioned the iPad app on our blog two weeks ago (see the bottom).

There's definitely no time at the beach for us... well, not until you guys have the iPad app in your hands :). We're seriously excited to share it with everyone here just as soon as Bob gives us the thumbs up. For those wondering, the app's looking good, but Bob's not... he's eaten so many bananas from that unlimited supply that we've had to buy him a whole new wardrobe...

Hope Bob is better soon !!!! Tell him to remember to avoid the green ones.

Very very much looking forward to the iPad version of RTM.

+ 1000000 Ipad native !

I would betatest!

+1 for an iPad version, and probably a wee bit of interface redesign for the iPhone version - woops! :p
Anyway on a serious note, am really looking forward for the iPad version and I am confident that all of us eager beavers won't be disappointed with it! Thanks RTM (and Bob!)

+1 for an awesome iPad app :)

I just want to Plead for the iPad app. My 15 year old has been diagnosed with High Functioning Asperger's which makes his organization for homework difficult along with navigating a calendar program etc. The iPad has become a favorite with many Asperger's kids/parents because of it's ease of use, large screen and apps that apply to their way of thinking. I would buy the pro subscription AND and iPad if I could use RTM on it for him. His Learning specialist could add things to his schedule/tasks and he could be more successful understanding his assignments!

+1 for the iPad version, how can we help you make this happen slightly faster (first post was 7 months ago) ?

I would love a native iPad app for RTM - in fact, I was waiting for it before I joined, but couldn't wait any longer.

In the meantime, I'm using the standard website to access my tasks, but I would really like to be able to save the site as an icon on my iPad's home screen (I can do that now, but I get a really bad icon with a snapshot of the page and it doesn't look good). If you could at least add an icon to the site that will save when I add the page to my home screen, that would go along way to help ease the waiting for a native app.

Thanks!

Jim

The Economist just launched their iPad app. Lack of a native RTM client is now the one thing holding my iPad back from full awesomeness.

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to give an update on where we're at with the iPad app. As you might've guessed (by the fact the app isn't out yet!), it's taken longer than we'd originally planned to develop the app we want to release. :(

So when's the iPad app coming out?

Our plan now is early 2011, and we'll be providing more updates as we get closer to launch. We'll be testing the app in the Tester Program, however Apple only lets us authorize 100 devices for testing (no idea how we're going to allocate those spots yet!).

Why's it taking so long?!

While we're able to re-use some of the code from our iPhone app, which speeds up development a little bit, we basically had to start from scratch with the UI to do the iPad justice.

We had a bit of a hiccup along the way: we got quite far with version 1 of the iPad app, but we weren't happy with it. :( We realised we'd gone in the wrong direction with the user experience, and that we needed to pretty much start over to create a waaay better app. (I'll take full blame for that one, sorry guys!)

So, we're now on version 2, which is what we'll be releasing (yay!). Bob's fuelled by his recent banana intake, and we'll be finishing development and launching as soon as we can. Thanks for your patience and support, everyone!

Thanks for the update Emily. I eagerly await the iPad app.

Hi Emily,

I'm sure everybody else here is as grateful for this update as I am. I've switched to OmniFocus because my iPad has become my most important GTD device, but I'll be back with RTM the instant the iPad version is out.

Thanks and keep up the good work
David

Emily,

Thanks for the update. We now have some direction and timeline.

Thank you for the update. As someone who's had an iPad since launch day it's felt like a very long wait, but having a better feel for what the status is makes it a lot easier to be patient. I'm a big fan of RTM and love the iPhone app. The normal RTM website UI is hard to use with an iPad, so I've always felt like RTM was something that is "missing" on the iPad. If you guys ever run out of development ideas (ha!), I'd suggest making an iPad friendly version of the website.

Thanks for the update, Emily! I think we all appreciate the hard work of the RTM team and I'm glad RTM is putting so much thought into the user experience on iPad. I can't wait to download the app!

yes, we really need an ipad version!

Good decision Emily - tough to delay releases when so much pressure here but I hope I can speak on behalf of most here when I say we'd rather wait a little longer and get a better quality app!

I'm a pro user with an iPad and iPhone that's been through the iOS beta testing drill with several apps. Just putting that out there... :)

Eagerly awaiting the iPad version too. Thanks much.

+1 here. Looking forward to it!

Thanks!

+1 for ipad, please

+1 iPad version would be AWESOME! Hope it is done soon.

Also eagerly waiting for the iPad version!

+1 - RTM is the best in class but lagging behind others because of lack of **decent** iPad support
Very keen to see an iPad version and happy to beta test if helpful.

On Feb 1st I'll be getting my shiney new HTC Desire HD. If the iPad app is out by then you bet your ass I'll be going Pro! Can't wait!

+1 for an iPad app.

Pleeeeaaaaaase!

+1 for a rtm app in the ipad

Emily: THANK YOU for the update! Will go Pro when this comes out.

+1 for RTM or iPad. I would love to have it for my ipad.

Ipad version please , i have an android phone but i use IPAD at home.
I will be great if you can do ipad version soon. Will go pro as soon as thats done . This will offer me a complete solution

+1 from me, anxiously awaiting RTM goodness on my new iPad

Using the iPhone app in doubled mode is awkward because everyone around me sees my to do list like a billboard. In small mode typing is physically awkward. I am not alone! Please soothe our collective discomfort by making this App universal! At 788 tasks completed last year--I use RTM frequently--and would on my iPad... but avoid it right now (when on the iPad) :(

+1 from Austria, RTM is absolutely the best one. Working with the so fast iPhone App while waiting on iPad-version.
+1 Banana to Bob.

+1 from me too for iPad. I gotta have it! Can't wait!

+1 will go pro when this comes out

+1 for the iPad version

+1 RTM for iPAD FTW

Am I the only one who checks this thread every day? Ha ha! I'm very excited about this iPad app. Best of luck to the RTM team.

+1 Ну мужики!!!!!!!!!!

@earlcaulley: You're not alone :)
Looping forward to that App...

+1 for iPad please

@earlcaulley checking every day as well. Can't wait

@earlcaulley: no you are not alone!
:o)

+1 for the iPad version ;)

From Spain....

iPad version now!!! ;)

+1.000.000.000.000 for the iPad version ASAP!

Thanks for the update, Emily.

I understand why the iPad version needs a completely new interface. It is good thinking of Bob to code and design from scratch. And also good you are looking over his shoulder ;)

If you need a tester: let me know.

Keep up the good work!

+1 ipad version please :)

Thanks for the update, keep 'em coming! I appreciate wanting to do it right (and wouldn't want it any other way), but the wait is killing me! Hopefully it will at least come before the iPad's 1-year mark?

Anyone know if there is an ipad app using the RTM API whilst we wait for Bob to finish coding the real app?

+1 for ipad version.

You know, this is absolutely ridiculous. It's been a year since the iPad was announced, and about nine months since it shipped. There's absolutely no excuse that users are **still** waiting for an iPad native version. I re-upped my Pro account in July of last year on RTM's word that an iPad version was a priority and "coming soon."

What's worse? They've removed API access for third party programs that work on the iPad (from Appigo) because they 'didn't have a commercial license." http://downloadsquad.switched.com/2010/05/18/remember-the-milk-and-appigo-cant-get-along-users-get-screwed/

I'm sick of waiting. I'd love a refund on my account, but RTM makes it nearly impossible to get in touch with customer service, so I'm doing the next best thing: Taking my money to a competing service that actually allows API access so I can get to my tasks on the device I want to use.

Hi Emily,

I am so incredibly excited by this feature your team is building.

Do you have an ETA yet?

Aopigo was able to deliver a Todo app on the iPad that synced with RTM within a month or two - what's so difficult for your development team, folks?

zonker, I understand you missed out on the refund that we offered at the time of the Appigo issue (unfortunately they violated our API terms and we had to terminate their API license :(. I've just sent you your refund via PayPal.

Third-party developers are more than welcome to apply for access to our API; pwfarrow asked if there are any third-party iPad apps using the API. I'm not sure if anyone's developed one, but if anyone here knows about one, please feel free to share here -- the more apps, the merrier. :)

Regarding timing, every iPad app is completely different, but I posted some information about the delay with ours earlier in this topic. We really appreciate how overwhelmingly supportive and patient everyone has been with us, and we're very much hoping we can deliver something that's worth the wait. :)

gboisvert, no ETA just yet, but I'll be sharing it the second that I have more info on timing -- we're very excited, too. :)

It's early 2011. Do you know where your iPad app is?

Hi ken.ficara, we don't have an ETA just yet beyond early this year (obviously we're in late January now, so early 2011 will be soonish :). Just as soon as I have more info on timing, I'll share it here.

I am not a patient person. I will give you another six months to complete and release your iPad application. If, after that time, you have not met my demands, I will slowly begin to cut of all banana supplies to the Australian mainland. Further failure to comply with my requests will result in monkeys being outlawed and all those called Bob being incarcerated for an indefinite period of time.

You have been warned…Bob.

Nooooooooo! Not the bananas! Bob promises to be good and code as quickly as his furry little paws allow.

I don't think I have the time to put in the effort st.edwards can with the Banana embargo, but I did just extend my Pro account the other day. So, by this time next year, I better have an iPad application that makes my iPhone app look like a wimp, or Evernote integration, or a shark with a friggin lazer beam on it.

Or I'm going to go use another service like Tood...no, tried that. Horrible. Or Google Tasks! Wait, are they even supporting that still? Really? Wow. Or Outlook! Outlook has a task to-do kind of thing in it maybe still not quite sure.

Well, just a bit short on options then. Either have an iPad app, Evernote integration, or a shark with a friggin lazer beam on it, or I'm breaking out my Hipster PDA again, or my Moleskine, or something else that contributes to the slaughter of defenseless trees.

@wil.case, couldn't have said it better myself, my pro sub is up in a couple of months!

Emily, please, please, **please** don't forget to add offline notifications on the iPad, otherwise its useless to a lot of us.
Also just tell Bob to add offline notifications to iPhone too while he's at it! :)

Letting my pro lapse unless an Ipad app comes soon.

+1 for iPad app

GIEF iPad version naow or the bananas are gone! GONE it tell you!!!!!

Well, lets see, how long this post is in here...
There already IS a proper alternative with Evernote integration, full GTD functionality (Projects with tasks and material and so on), ipad and iphone app.

Only things that let me stay for the the moment: My pro account lasts until November and the price of that alternative.
So Emily, its serious... I really will think about alternatives...

Will you let us know when you have submitted to the App Store at least? There is a banana in it for you.

Guess I wasn't paying attention - just bought an iPad, sync'd it all up, and then stared with amazement when the RTM app came up as a tiny blob in the middle of the screen.

Evernote doesn't do that. The BBC news app doesn't do that. Loads of apps are capable of realising they're on an ipad and adjusting accordingly.

I'd sooner you just brought out an update that used the whole screen in a similar way right now, then bring an all-new 'user experience' later on.

A tiny window in them middle of the screen ain't 'Pro', is it?

munderwood, that's the iPhone app you installed. It's a great app, but it's not a dual mode app like the Evernote app. I use iPhone app all the time on my iPhone and really like it, which is I'm so eager to get a version of the app that's made for the iPad.

@mlmathews

I know - I use both RTM and Evernote apps on my iphone, very happy with both.

My point was that, when I added an iPad to my collection, the Evernote app. transferred and immediately worked much better - the RTM app transferred and stayed exactly the same.

It's not like the iPad came out last week - its about to be superseded in a few weeks time, and still the RTM app doesn't recoginse it :-(

WOW! What a bunch of spoiled brats! And I include myself in this category.... what did we do before the iPAD??? Give RTM a chance! I'm sure it will be worth it.

Now Monkey - I just put myself on the line for you... you better freakin' deliver...... or else.

My pro expires in about a week, and I wanted you to know that I'll be holding off renewing until there is an actual iPad app. Nothing in "pro" helps me until then, and I've lost that "warm fuzzy feeling" due to the repeated "we're working on it" statements which somehow turn out not to happen.

Hope this very tiny push causes Bob to get over the finish line with this!

Very very very very eager to get an iPad app for this. I know you are working on it, but please hurry...!

Just a gentle reminder for Bob - "Great artists ship"

Thanks for the continous updates!
Just wanted to say I'm really looking forward to the iPad app!

Emily,

Why is it not possible, to adapt the iPhone version to the higher resolution without making any other changes until your superdupermegenew version is out?

Look at it this way:
- People in here have an iPad.
- They want to work but they can't.
- They will soon switch to something else.
- You'll loose your base...

!! Your delay is strange and your company is becoming less and less credible !!

"Soonish" is not an update. How about some concrete information for a change?

sven.blum, working on a large screen version of the iPhone app would take resources away from working on our real iPad app, and we really want to get the real thing out as soon as we can. (If we'd known earlier just how long it would take to develop the real app, we might've considered an interim solution, but right now we just need to finish the actual app! :)

rod.satterwhite, I'll share more info on timing just as soon as I have it, but right now we don't have an ETA beyond early this year, sorry. :(

Hi, Waiting like the rest .

What would really be usefull in the app is multi user. on the iphone i only work myself. On the ipad me and my wife are both working. So working with multiple users would be great!

I think using "Early" is a very good idea. Because the definition of early is vague enough.

My guess is RTM's "early" implies first quarter - so may be 45 days before we see it? Another way, and a Glass Half Full way to look at it - release it end of March (first quarter, still meets "early") and that is BEFORE the first message on this post was submitted 4/4/2010!

Another advantage - the RTM iPad App would be ready for the new rumored iPad?

Hey Everyone!

I (finally!) have some news to share regarding our schedule. :)

The app will be going into the Pro Tester Program next month (barring any major hiccups, of course :). Apple only lets us authorize 100 devices for testing, and I know we have more than 100 people who'd like to participate, so we'll likely have some kind of lottery for invites. We'll email everyone who's joined the tester program about that as we get close to starting testing.

The duration of the test will depend on the feedback we receive from testers (as well as how many bugs they find, and how long it takes us to squish said bugs...). We don't anticipate it being a long test, though (think weeks).

After the test is complete and the last bug is squished, we'll be submitting the app to Apple. We don't have any control over how long it will take to get the app approved, but fingers crossed it won't be much longer than 7 days.

We'll be keeping everyone updated on where we are in the schedule, and how things are going, as we head towards the release. As I mentioned previously, it's taken longer than we'd originally planned to develop the app, and we genuinely appreciate all the support we've received from the RTM community during the (long!) development process. Bob (and the rest of the team) very much hope that what we'll be delivering is worth the wait. :)

Wahey!

Just had a look around at alternatives but still don't like them as much as RTM.

This is really a extraneous post in the hope that in choosing the 100 testers you check this thread.

I'm already a member of the pro-tester programme (the UK version) and I do solemnly swear to beta the heck out of it.

Ok, so it's sounding like end of March when it's officially released. We finally got a timeline! :)

The best news! Thanks for the hard work. Looking forward to seeing and using it!

Great !

I could be a beta tester for the french version if you need...

This is great news!! Woohoooooooo!

Just out of curiosity - could we see a screenshot? :-)

Great news, I'm stoked!

Only one more day to go … ^^

I hope I win in the lottery, can't wait for an iPad-App. =)

Oh, I didn't see the note in the top … March it is, then … ^^

Yes! Screenshot!

Awesome. Can't wait. Hope I win the lottery winner. My iPad goes everywhere with me. It has replaced my laptop and this app will make a huge difference.

It's almost March... Beautiful month :-)

Looking forward to iPad version. Hope too that I can test another awesome version of Remember the milk app too. Please bob choose me ;)

March is: RTM @ iPad month :-)

You can check my name on your shortlist of pro testers.

it's march (at least in Germany) :-)

Anxiously waiting. I would love to be a pro tester for you.

I am a programmer. I understand how development goes. I am not expecting it until the end of March.

I get the impression they are focused on building a very high quality app. I am certain it will be worth the wait.

I havent received any email for the testing program

Hi garzalivas,

We'll be sending out the emails to members of the Pro Tester Program when we're just about ready to start testing (which will be this month, but isn't quite just yet).

Hope this helps!

OMG can I please join this program? I recently started managing an overseas zendesk and my day to day tasks are off the roof. I started paying for your pro service and having this on my ipad would be awesome.

I've been waiting for your iPad app and would like to be among those testing it, please.

Dang! The iPad 2 will be released before RTM for iPad.

Cant wait for the ipad app.
Hope I can be one of the testers too.
Using RTM on just about every gadget I have.
Making the most of my blocky 2 x version on the ipad until the new one arrives.

Please add me to the lottery.

Would love to be part of the testing program. I just went back to the RTM Pro version, because right now there's nothing better around than RTM.

Looking forward to the iPad app!

@earicaulley great point about the iPad 2 being released before RTM for iPad. I love RTM, but part of the reason I chose it over others was because it was available on every platform I used at the time. The iPad has become a big part of my workflow, so this has been a painful wait.

Been using RTM for a few years now and would love to be a tester for the iPad app!

Indeed a sad affair that the iPad2 will beat the release of RTM for the iPad(1)....

Made my day Emily.

I'd kill for beta testing Bob's masterpiece :D

Wish I had an iPad! Love using RTM!

Can't wait for the official iPad app! Hoping to get into the beta, but keep up the great work.

waiting anxiously

Posted 4 weeks ago: "We'll be keeping everyone updated on where we are in the schedule, and how things are going, as we head towards the release." Well?

Would love into the beta!

I just wanted to post an update on where we're at...

As we announced last month, the iPad app will be going into the Pro Tester Program this month, then launching shortly after -- we're still on track for that. If you're interested in testing, please make sure you're signed up to our tester program. :)

What's happening next?

We're now in the final bug fixing and polishing up stage (yay!). We'll be emailing Pro Tester Program members sometime next week (i.e., the week starting March 21), and asking everyone to indicate if they're interested in testing the iPad app. We'll give people a couple of days to respond, before randomly selecting 100 testers and beginning testing (as I mentioned before, Apple only lets us authorize 100 devices for testing, so we can only invite this number :(.

How long will testing take?

As I posted previously, the duration of the test will depend on the feedback we receive from testers (as well as how many bugs they find, and how long it takes us to squish said bugs...). We don't anticipate it being a long test, though (think weeks).

After the test is complete and the last bug is squished, we'll be submitting the app to Apple. We don't have any control over how long it will take to get the app approved, but fingers crossed it won't be much longer than 7 days.

We're super excited to (finally!) be in the home stretch, and that we'll be getting to share the app with everybody very soon.

Cool!

I'm not sure whether my request is fair (to iPad owners waiting for almost a year), but will you include slots for European (first time) buyers of the iPad2? The device will be released (t)here on March 25 (for several countries, but not all).

Thank you for the update.

Thnx for the update: good service. Stoked about the iPad version :D Good luck finishing up the details. Happy coding ;)

Add me to the list of new iPad 2 users that can't wait to see the iPad version of one of my favorite apps.

Thanks for the update. I actually sold my iPad, and am waiting for my iPad 2 to ship. I ordered online at 01:30 PST and still no change on my order! Anyways, can't wait for my iPad 2 and can't wait for this app! Keep up the great work!

Its about time! More than 10 months ago there was confirmation of an iPad app and yet in that time we haven't seen anything. I'd rather have a buggy release at this stage than no release at all!

This new iPad app better be MINDBLOWING! :D

@bertrand.tan Couldn't have said it better myself.

iPad version would be one more reason to convince me to buy the dang thing. I also second Offline functions. Great news!

With this wait, we can afford to be patient. Please take your time to deliver a solid product. I'd rather a robust release with fewer features than the opposite. Please advise if you at any point need specific items tested; I'd be happy to lend a hand.

Is the iPad version going to be a universal app? Can we expect to see improvements to the iPhone version as well?

Hi eric.r.park,

Yes, it will be a universal app.

This particular release is focused on the iPad app -- the iPhone app will benefit from some bug fixes and performance improvements that we've made to common code during the iPad app's development, but it won't be seeing feature updates in this release.

Waiting with baited breath for the iPad test email :)

Yep, hoping that I get one too! Maybe everyone on this thread should get one since we're the ones that are crazy enough to post here! But keep it shhhhhh. :D

@emily When you have plans to release the next version? If I renew my subscription can I test the app in the Pro Tester Program? Thanks.

christiandavidpc, are you referring to the iPad app or the next version of the iPhone app?

I don't know when the next version of the iPhone app will be (sorry!), as right now we're focused on getting the iPad app out. Hopefully after the iPad app's out, we'll have some more time for updates to other mobile apps, but I don't know the timeframe right now.

Any testing that we do of our iPad and iPhone apps in the Pro Tester Program is unfortunately limited to 100 devices (that's all that Apple lets us authorize for testing :( and we'll be assigning those spots randomly. I know that we have more than 100 people interested in testing, so I'm sorry I can't guarantee a spot. :(

Just got my shiny new iPad 2 a few days ago. Looking forward to testing the new iPad app if the gods of random selection make it so. My PTP profile is up to date. Thanks!

Have you started the beta testing for the iPad app yet? Any updates on when you are planning to release the iPad version?

@emily Thanks for your answer. Yes, I referred to the iPad app. It's a long wait.

ashujoshi, nope we haven't started just yet -- please see my previous post for details regarding timing.

If you're in the Pro Tester Program, you'll receive an email later this week asking if you're interested in testing the iPad app. (We'll be randomly selecting 100 testers, as Apple limits the number of devices that can be authorized for testing.)

I'll post again here once that email goes out. :)

How about ebay auctions for the 100 places with the money going to the Japan relief efforts?

Or even just 10 places for those of us who are overly keen to beta test and don't mind helping a good cause?

+1 for Stephen's idea!

+1 too! Would Apple allow that? Its hardly for profit and at least the money goes to a good cause. Win-win! :D

+1! I really want to make sure that i am between the 100 chosen ones :))

@stephen.nevison +1. Great idea.

@stephen.nevison

I like the idea, but I can't imagine Apple would be all that pleased that it could encourage others to sell the spots in the future. Also, to be entirely just practical, it was draw out the selection process several days/a week to run an auction.

ipad version please! It's overdue, especially with the ipad 2 out now!!

I haven't received any email yet. Did anyone of you?

whoa, I can't wait to get my hands on this app...I hope I get to be a tester! And yes +1 indeed.

Friday. No sent out emails anymore. Am I right?

Only 5 days left in this month. Only 9 days until this thread is a year old.

Love RTM and recommend it to everyone. Got my dad signed up for a Pro account a few weeks ago when he got an iPhone, and he loves it too. He's going to inherit my iPad after I get my iPad 2 in a few weeks, so pretty please let there be an iPad RTM app by then.

We've now emailed all Pro Tester Program members about iPad app testing, so please check your email. :)

Do I stand as better a chance as I've already replied ;-)

All Pro tester members? My pro tester profile is up to date and I didn't receive any emails...

Mozan -- Do you have iOS selected as one of your operating systems on which you use RTM? If not, you wouldn't have received an email. Otherwise, check your SPAM folder, perhaps?

My profile is up to date and has had iOS selected since 2009 yet no email ? Checked all my spam too but no joy.

The email just came though, fingers crossed now.

Good luck to all the beta testers. I did not sign up because I doubt I would have the time and didn't want to take a spot away from someone who had more motivation. It's all in your hands now! The sooner you can find bugs and certify the app, the sooner us common users can enjoy it! :)

Excellent news! Hoping for the luck of the draw! =)

@thebootfitter

Yes IOS was checked. Nothing in SPAM folder. Weird... I was really hoping to test the iPad app.

mozan,
If you still haven't received the tester email, would you mind getting in touch with us here so we can look into this?

Thanks!

brendan,

Thank you! I just sent the email.

...have responded, eagerly awaiting.....

The 100 iPad app testers have now been notified; thanks to everyone who was interested!

We wish we could've invited you all, but now that we're testing the iPad app, the launch won't be far away. :)

Once again no luck in a lottery :(

I hope the 100 lucky ones will fly through the beta test, resulting in a fast AppStore release!

Hopefully you testers aren't under a NDA or something and can tell the rest of us if we should be getting excited or not.

I'm sad. I have not been selected!

No idea about the testing NDA -- but I believe we're not allowed to say anything specific (so I won't).

So, is the testing actually underway? Any hints on how things are looking for public release? Thanks for any updates.

mlmathews, yup testing is well underway. We're currently working through the bug reports and feedback that testers have been sending us, and releasing new versions to the testers every day or two as we get bugs squished and UI tweaked. I'll post as we have more news. :)

Testers are under NDA:

"I understand that any new features that I am given access to as part of the Pro Tester Program are pre-release and confidential. I promise not to share any information about these features with others, or disclose information about these features publically (e.g. through blogging, Twitter, Facebook, etc)."

Well, doesn't look like I'll be getting a shark with a friggin laser on it, but iPad RTM will do just as well. Very excited for the release.

ETA! ETA!

Let's hope for this month!

As soon as the iPad app is available, I'll get a pro license.... Or sooner 'cos testing it with android phone now, and works perfectly.

I have a pro license. Will you notify us (me) when the update is available? The current version is not good at all on the iPad.

What is the status? How about a meaningful ETA, given that the emails went to testers over 3 weeks ago, and the fact that this thread has been active (albeit recently moved for some reason) for OVER A YEAR.

punkingee,
The best way to watch for new announcements is to keep an eye on our blog or follow us on Twitter. The latest news will be posted there.

Hope that helps!

Rod, we're still testing with our 100 testers (see my last update), fixing bugs and making sure everything is solid.

I've posted previously about our estimated timeframe -- we anticipated a testing period with a duration in the weeks (and we're getting pretty close to wrapping that up).

As I said earlier, after the test is complete and the last bug is squished, we'll be submitting the app to Apple. We don't have any control over how long it will take to get the app approved, but fingers crossed it won't be much longer than 7 days.

I know this topic has been a bit trickier to find, seeing as we moved it on everyone! The full explanation for the move of this topic (and others) into the Ideas forum is here... sorry to disappoint anyone with exciting conspiracy theories for the move. :)

The release candidate has just gone out to our 100 testers -- we'll allow for a few days of testing, just to make sure we haven't introduced any new bugs in our bug squishing. :)

If there's no problems with the release candidate, we should be submitting the app to Apple this week (w00t!).

A huge thanks to everyone who's been patiently waiting for us to work through our testing! (I've said it before, but if we could've invited every single one of you to help us test, we would've! :)

Its like waiting for Santa! Except you have to leave banana's out instead of cookies...

Very excited. I've been waiting for this and the Moleskine app to come out forever. However, the Moleskine was like a slap in the head with a week old trout. I'm sure y'all will do much better! :)

Well, I certainly hope that our app won't be like a slap in the head with a week old trout... but you guys can be the judge of that. :D

Just an update on my last post: release candidate 2 went out to the testers today (there were a couple of last minute fixes we had to make). We'll see how this one goes, and let everyone know once we get the app submitted to Apple. :)

Thanks for the updates Emily!

Great!

W00t!!

So, like, tomorrow right? :)

Oooooh! It's like Christmas! Can't wait!

Thanks for the updates! :)

I can't wait. This will be epic.

Omg, I can't believe this is happening. So excited! No sarcasm I really need/want the iPad version of this.

Echoing the excitement of recent commenters: this is a big, big deal. My LIFE is in my RTM account, and with no iPad app, my eye has been wandering to other tools. But I want to stay loyal! So I'm holding my breath and am VERY hopeful about the iPad app. I can live with fewer features; I just want an app that suits the iPad form factor.

Thanks for all the updates, Emily!

@up

Same here! Waiting patiently and hoping for a really good app.

How is RC2 going?

I just added a year to my month long Pro account. Please bring the iPad app to us soon!

Yes, please do! Will there be another RC after RC2?

The iPad app has, at long last, been submitted to Apple for approval (yay!).

And now we wait... :)

A massive thanks to our testers (you know who you are :) for helping us to track down bugs and improve the app over the last few weeks.

And, of course, a huge thanks also to everyone who's been supporting us while waiting for the app. :)

That is really very good news! Many thanks for updating and for the work - I am REALLY looking forward to this app being released by Apple.

I was honored to have been chosen to help test the app! I must say, I feel that most will be pleasantly surprised at how beautiful and nicely built it is! RTM FTW!!

Can we see screenshots of the app?

Will it be a universal app?

Yes! I'm so happy. I'm also happy to hear francola's comments. I'm not asking for much, just a RTM optimized for the iPad display. I'm sure I will be very happy with the final product.

I did a little searching and it looks like the apps usually get approved within 5 - 7 days.

Yay, I am super excited. I just started using RTM and have an ipad that I would love to utilize for work. Will be patiently waiting for approval! :)

cjmegatron81,

We're going to wait until Apple approves the app before sharing screenshots (well, we'll be sharing the actual app too at that point :).

And yes, it's a universal app.

Thanks Emily! Do you know if the app will appear as an update to the current iPhone app or as a new app in the store?

Congratulations RTM team!

mlmathews, it will appear as an update to the current iPhone app (if you have that installed on your iPad).

action.manager, thanks! :)

Emily and Team - a universal app - outstanding.

The only downside to knowing this will appear as an update to the iPhone app is that I am checking the app update more frequently than my email. Productivity is definitely down.

Congrats!

Thanks Emily.

I am really glad I could join the other testers. It's been a great experience, managing my tasks from the couch and in public transport on a bigger screen than the iPhone's :)

I am keen on Apple devices, I wrote down a full paper of ideas and RTM team implemented a lot of them, so I am pleased with the whole process and how it did work out :)

Looking forward for the official release! :)

mb01915, don't worry, we'll be posting here + blog + Twitter + Facebook + the web app news section (basically, everywhere!) as soon as it hits the App Store... so you won't miss it. :)

lasthunter, thanks -- really appreciated your feedback! :)

Please let it be today :-)!

yes! I can't wait

This is really dragging on... Still no news?

vasella, nope, still waiting for Apple's approval. We'll let everyone know the instant it hits the App Store!

Totally jonesing for this update.

Can't wait!

@skipper.pickle Thanks for teaching a new word. I'm officially jonesing too now.

So, we are now in day 7. C'mon! It's got to be today!

I think that it really is time for some screenshots. Can't imagine that the app will be refused, unless Bob T Monkey is featured in indecent apparel.

Takes about 2 weeks. Be patient! :D

Emily: Will you be emailing all the users to let them know? Would help then we don't have to keep coming back to this page. (:

Emily already promised to inform users via the blog and twitter.

Use the RSS feeds and you have push instead of pull...

vasella, you never know what Bob's snuck into the app...

bertrand.tan, not sure about an email yet (good idea, though). As action.manager mentioned, we'll be posting here + blog + Twitter + Facebook... so choose your method. :)

Its crazy how long it takes them to approve this. Did they give you a time expectancy? Like 1 week, 2 weeks, etc?

I know that I will be notified via just about every social media known to man kind, but I still keep hitting refresh page. This delay is killing my productivity!

Remember Steve Jobs claiming that 95% of apps submitted for review are approved within 7 days? I've followed many eagerly awaited apps for iPad through the review process and never have I found any one to be approved in less than 2 weeks. It is crazy how long it takes them.

It's released!
