Happy New Year from BitBQ! To help celebrate the start of 2010, FitnessTrack is 40% off until January 8th. I hope this provides some help for those with New Year’s Resolutions to work out more. I know it’s a high priority for me.

FitnessTrack 1.5 Available and is 40% Off

I’m pleased to announce that FitnessTrack 1.5 is now available on the App Store. This is the first version from BitBQ. This version includes several improvements including the ability to create a playlist for your workout inside the application. FitnessTrack is also sporting a new application icon. You can see the entire change log here. You can get FitnessTrack from the App Store here.

Like Emergency Information, I had to submit this as a new application to Apple. That means, if you had previously purchased FitnessTrack, you will need to purchase it again to continue to receive updates.

To help soften the cost of updating to this version for previous users, FitnessTrack will be 40% off until 11:59 PM CST (GMT-6) November 30, 2009. That also means new users get 40% off too!

iPhone App Transfer Update

It’s been almost a month since I announced the acquisition of FitnessTrack and Emergency Information from Justin Williams at Second Gear. Since then, both Justin and I have been patiently waiting for any word from Apple on the transfer request Justin made back in September. Every time either of us call, it’s like talking to a brick wall with the only information we’re told is that “It’s with an Internal Team”.

Additionally, we’ve heard rumblings from others in similar situations that Apple’s policy seems to be that they will only perform these transfers if the entire company is sold, not just specific apps.

So where does that leave us? Where “Where To?” was about a year ago. Basically, it appears that Justin will need to pull Emergency Information and FitnessTrack from sale on the App Store and I will need to submit all new binaries from BitBQ. Justin is going to pull the apps from sale today and I’m going to be submitting BitBQ versions on Friday.

What does that mean for users? It means that existing customers of FitnessTrack and Emergency Information will no longer receive updates unless they repurchase the apps from BitBQ.

Justin and I were doing everything we could to avoid this outcome as it obviously is going to upset those who have already bought the apps. Unfortunately it appears to be out of our hands and in Apple’s and we can’t wait on them forever.

As the BitBQ versions work there way through the review process, I will be considering ways to help alleviate the pain of having to repurchase the apps.
