Hot on the heels of yesterday's update of the Android app, we're happy to announce that we've just published 1.4.0 to the Play store. This update has some timeout fixes as well as an entire new tool... the Reminders / Recurring Transactions!

You can access the Reminders / Recurring Transactions tool from the Account Overviews by clicking on the "More" icon at the top right side of the app screen and then select Reminders. You have full capability of viewing, adding, editing and deleting reminders from within the app.

The update should become available soon on your Android devices.

We're glad to announce the release of an update to the Android app. This new version fixes and updates several issues that had been brought to our attention.

Here's what's updated in the latest version:

• Fixed missing Jive button on Transaction Register
• Got rid of calendar on transaction form
• Added custom premium fields to transaction list (check #, memo, payee)
• Improved UI throughout app
• Updated Budgets section to work with newer durations

You can see some of the new screenshots here:

You should start seeing the update available on your devices shortly.

We're not done with the app yet. We're already starting work on the following for the next and future updates to the app:

• Reminders / Recurring Transactions
• Improved Reporting
• Improved Tablet interface
• Offline Mode

We did this last year and thought it would be good to give everyone some information about the site from 2012. We had 42,534 new users sign up (43% from mobile devices).

In 2012 we had 2,475,672 visits (466,274 unique) to the site which added up to a total of 15,492,688 pageviews. The average person visits 6.25 pages each time they come to the site and stay for an average of 7:42. All of these stats are up from 2011 which is a great sign.

In addition to the site numbers growing, we were also busy keeping the site updated. Over the course of the year we issued 227 bug fixes, updates and tweaks to the site. There were also 8 major updates / new features in 2012. We added/overhauled the following:
* Auto-Jive Tool
* Balances Timeline in Reports
* iOS app redeveloped
* Investment Portfolio
* Automatic categorization of Imported Transactions
* Re-arranging Transaction Register Columns
* Money Lending Tracker
* Budgets Overhaul

We've already mentioned it recently, but our plan for 2013 is to focus on the mobile apps the first part of the year. We plan on overhauling/updating the existing apps as well as building apps for other mobile platforms such as Blackberry and Windows Phone. Once we have the mobile apps all updated and available for download we will focus on some new features and updates for the site.
