LookSee 1.1 Is Finally Out

Well it was a little bit of a hard slog getting this version out.

Version 1.1 is really where 1.0 should have been when it was first released. There were a lot of shortcomings with it and I wasn’t entirely too happy with it. For what it’s worth the reviews weren’t too bad, but still now where I want to be with the app.

This version has cleaned up the interface tremendously and allowed it to be a little bit more flexible.

There’s still a lot to be done with the App and just can’t wait to get the features I want into it.

Obviously the iPhone 3.0 OS was announced in this time and yes I have ideas on what LookSee will do. It’s all vaporware for now, but it will be reality, I’m in this app for the long haul as I think it can be the killer app in one to two versions time. For now it’s a simple WebDAV storage medium, so the foundation is there for what’s coming next.

Try out 1.1 and let me know what you think guys.

… now back to scripting our Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) 2007 installs, migrate our Live Communications Server (LCS) 2005 infrastructure to Office Communications Server (OCS) 2007 R2 and… deep breath finally migrate our Exchange Server 2003 Front-Ends to Exchange Server 2007 Client Access Servers (CAS). All in a days work.

LookSee 1.1 Is Coming

It’s been a long journey of getting the App developed from Whoa to Go and now the joy of adding features hath come.

LookSee being a version 1.0 app has had it’s shortcomings but for the most part the app has been warmly accepted by you fine folk! Many thanks for all your kind comments and suggestions. The few issues that have arisen are quite superficial and easily rectified, thank god there weren’t any show stoppers or truly embarrassing failboat moments!

The next version is almost done, some small layout issues to fix up before it goes in as an update on the App Store. This version will be about making LookSee a little bit more configurable, little bit more slicker and little bit more intuitive. Baby steps for now, sadly I don’t have the resources of a million coding monkeys behind me to write the perfect from the get go.

So stay tuned.

It’s alive! LookSee 1.0 is on iTunes now!

What an exciting time for me.

That app has finally gone live on the iTunes store. Uploaded it last Thursday and it’s gone live today, so the review process took a week in total, which isn’t too shabby. I was expecting the review to take up to a month to conclude based on some blogs I was reading, so this has come as a surprise.

Checking out some of the competition out there and there I think this will hold it’s own for now as a version 1.0 release. There are some awesome features coming shortly which no one is doing as of yet! It’s going to be truel innovative in the coming months.

For now LookSee 1.0 should be the nicest looking and easiest to use WebDAV app out there with no limitations. There won’t be no Pro version like some other vendors are doing, just one version and always at US$0.99.

Happy downloading!

LookSee 1.0
