I am writing this as I download v1.5 and though this might seem premature I am giving it a five star review as version 1.0.5 already earns five stars as far as I'm concerned. I have used RapidWeaver for years and was loathe to spend time on learning yet another app (RapidWeaver just wasn't cutting it anymore) yet Hype has got my new site up and running quickly and reliably and I am already getting favourable customer feedback on it.
I'm sure you're right Markus and I was probably a bit harsh on RapidWeaver. I used RapidWeaver from the start and used to develop my own themes for it as I when I needed them. I am very finicky about having a site that I design 100% so am loathe to use 3rd party themes which appears to be the direction RW is heading. I'm sure Stacks would be a great way to combine RW and Hype and if I get enough time I'll explore it but for now I think I'll just stick with Hype on its own. p.s. I don't spend enough time working on the web - I just need a new site every year or so, spend a furious amount of time developing it, then move back to programming and other stuff.
Use this whenever I need to convert from dollars to euro fast - stopped working last week so checked for a new version on macupdate - downloaded today and sorted! Many thanks to the developer for this great software.
Just about to buy this - have been trying out the demo for a week now. Absolutely perfect for my needs as an iOS app developer... fast, intuitive, reliable and more or less NO learning curve. 10 out of 10.
I kindly suggest to the developer that he create a website for this - I couldn't imagine parting with cash in this day and age for a product without a website.
Great little app - Apple could indeed do everyone a favour by including this in the OS. Couple of minor niggles - 1. it always seems to open iCal in day view when I prefer it in month view - 2. maybe days containing calendar events could be in bold. Please don't take these as negatives, this really is a great little utility as is.
Within a hair's breadth of finishing an hour and a half download of this it timed out. And now wants me to start the download from scratch!!! Apple really need to get their download act sorted. I am now downloading it from the www.felixbruns.de site in the hope that this will work - this is not the first time this has happened to me!
Thanks for the suggestion John but this wasn't an option as it had already timed out. I did manage to download and install from www.felixbruns.de and will probably just go directly there in future.
Bought this recently as the previous version seemed to do what I wanted. No complaint about the price - its nice to see the iphone model being used on the mac as buying it was a no-brainer. However, it would be nice if the developer could implement a couple of vital features - firstly, an alarm needs to wake the computer from sleep - if the mac is asleep the countdown is paused until it reawakens?? Secondly, alarms need to run even when the app has been quit - I don't like having to keep an app open all the time just for an alarm.
[Version 4.0.3]
