CreelCardPro ... coming soon!

Now that the free, ad-supported CreelCard application has been out in the market for a few months now, we have had some great feedback from some of the user community which we have been able to address and add back into the feature set. However, it was always our idea to launch a paid-for, no-ads version alongside the original free app, to test the waters for this kind of offering in the Android Marketplace.

Since the last version, v0.9.3, of the free version, we have been working on the pro version. We don't want to spoil all of the surprises, but the main theme is import and export of your fishing data. You will be able to import all the data from a previously - installed CreelCard free version when you first launch the Pro version. You will also be able export the entire data set out for CreelCard Pro into a series of individual csv text files (one file for trip, one files for catches, one file for fish etc). This will let you pull the data into other analysis packages and databases to do further reporting and archiving. This is working just great in our test version, including all custom fields, media file links and text notes for each record type.

We will continue to maintain the codebase of the free version, focusing on addressing any issues that may arise with new versions of the Android firmware, differences between different vendor-specific application stacks etc. For example, we have found a difference in the way the original Google Camera activity and the HTC Hero's HTCCamera activity create links to newly created photos that are passed back to the calling application (CreelCard in this case). Fortunately, a friend has lent his brand new HTC Hero phone to help with the problem diagnosis (thanks Sess!).

Look forward to providing more details when we are go for launch. Please don't hesitate to contact us with any ideas and feedback ... using our Get Satisfaction site is probably the best route. Thanks for your continuing support!
