iKeepActive and iKeepActive Lite back in App Store

jeffrey — Sun, 17 Jan 2016 07:33:59 +0000

Both iKeepActive and iKeepActive have been voluntarily removed from the App Store last year, but have been re-instated with new versions in the App Sore after the 2015 Holidays. Both applications include updates to their core functionalities to use the newest Apple OS X APIs EventKit and AVFoundation, retiring CalendarStore and QuicktimeKit, respectively. This will fix compatibility issues with the newest versions of OS X. This also means that support for Snow Leopard, Lion, and Mountain Lion have been retired.

iKeepActive has also been updated with some graphing of your progress and muscle coverage from your workout schedule, while the Lite version only focuses on the API update.

It has been a long time in waiting (especially long for OS X Mountain Lion users), but the latest version of iKeepActive has been approved by Apple, and is now available in the Mac App Store now. The release focus is on Mountain Lion Fixes, but other features and improvements have also been added so updating is recommended for everyone on 64-bit Intel Macs.

– Added a new mechanism for tracking when scheduled activities are due in Mountain Lion.
– For earlier versions of OS X, the Applescript system is still used for tracking due activities.
– Added support for retiring scheduled activities. This allows you to remove an activity from your calendar while still keeping the history for tracking purposes. Retired activities can be re-scheduled.
– Rearranged the flow of information on the Summary View for ease of the new user.
– Added 4 more available activities.
– Quite possibly one of the last versions to support Snow Leopard and Lion, so get it while you can.
– Dropped support for 32-bit.

Enjoy!

iKeepActive Lite 1.1.0 Released

This new free upgrade (for existing users) implements Apple’s new Sandbox security model, and in turn has many changes to calendar synching. Improvements in this area and other areas have been made along the way:

– Implemented with OSX Lion Sandbox for better protection against malware. (Snow Leopard compatible)
– In accordance to the Sandbox, calendar synching is now completely done through CalendarStore API calls instead of CalendarStore and Applescript.
– Adding activities to the schedule will now automatically add it in the system calendar; no Synching is required.
– The Sync button has been repurposed to re-Sync and update the system calendar, in the case of asymmetry due to errors or willful calendar deletion.
– A complete sync to the calendar is now much faster than before.
– All OSX Lion users will have to quit (if currently running) and restart iCal for any calendar changes to take effect.
– Cancelling after editing a scheduled activity will no longer notify the user of an update required.
– Scheduling an activity which has its units in minutes will now show its entire duration in your system calendar. All other activity unit types (lbs., miles, etc.) will only show the start time.
– When history items are added in the history view, they are now automatically arranged.
– Rearranged columns and added colour coding on the status of items in the History view.
– Updated the documentation with regards to synching.
