iPad version

complete

I won't be able to upgrade to Soulver 3 until you have iPadOS support. I use Soulver on all my platforms, and regularly move back and further. Only having it on my computer would represent where I use it only about 20% of the time.

Can you provide a link for it in the US iPad App Store? I’m unable to find it via search.

Zac @ Soulver

Steve Shaner: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/soulver-3/id1508732804?ls=1

Make sure to open on your iPad, on a Mac it will open the Mac App Store version.

Zac @ Soulver

It is in the search results, but just a far way down for some reason.. even if you search directly for "Soulver". Hopefully this will improve over time. I've already submitted a query to Apple about this.

Steve Shaner

Thanks, excited to upgrade!

Soulver 3 for iPad is live on the App Store. Thank you for your patience, and for your support. I hope you'll find it was worth the wait.

Zac @ Soulver: Does this sync with the Mac version?

Zac @ Soulver

Ronald Ifferte: Yes, via iCloud. Make sure your sheetbook location is "in iCloud" in Soulver's settings on both Mac & iPad.

Zac @ Soulver: how do we send bug reports for ipad os? i have a number keypad bluetooth that works everywhere except when im using soulver as a slide over. it simply doesnt respond to bluetooth for the microsoft keypad. works in full screen mode though. any gives? it also doesnt work with my typecase bluetooth

Zac @ Soulver

Obadiah Cruz: Does the regular on-screen software keyboard work for you in slide over?

Obadiah Cruz

Zac @ Soulver: i had to restart my iPad for it to work; I got my Bluetooth keyboard to work with it now on Slide Over. Must be some bug that i got with my Apple Pencil. now that im trying the screen keyboard it switches from number screen keypad to regular small keyboard constantly. Is there a way to have the number screen keypad stay visible by force?

Maybe you’ll be able to reproduce some of the things i mention when you convert Slide Over to Split View and vice versa

Obadiah Cruz

Yeap i got my Bluetooth keyboard to stop working again with Soulver again. It seems to happen when you change Slide Over to Split View and then try to type with it on Soulver

Zac @ Soulver

Obadiah Cruz: Ok that's good. The number pad is what's called a "keyboard accessory" on iPad. This means that the main keyboard does need to be visible in order for it to be visible. There's no way to have the text field in editor mode and not show the standard keyboard.

Obadiah Cruz

Zac @ Soulver: I got the bug again. All Bluetooth keyboards don’t respond in the app again

Zac @ Soulver

Obadiah Cruz: Ok, I can't reproduce this with my  magic keyboard or in the simulator, so I'll have to get another keyboard to test with. Thanks for letting me know.

Obadiah Cruz

Zac @ Soulver: no problem! I’m using an iPad Pro m2 12.9 and latest iPadOS just in case you want to know

Zac @ Soulver: congrats on completing stable ver 3 for iPad!

And now that the app for iPad is out, will iOS also be getting some Soulver 3 love in the future?

Zac @ Soulver

mjeshurun: I'm only working on the Mac & iPad versions right now. That said, I'm sure there will be an iOS version at some point and the port from iPad to iOS should be much more straight forward than Mac to iPad (which use completely different technologies).

Zac @ Soulver

Obadiah Cruz: Is this fixed in the latest update?

in progress

I'm pleased to announce that Soulver 3 for iPad is ready for beta testing:
https://testflight.apple.com/join/Vlb55Wtr
Please send us your feedback and report any issues.
(Note that purchasing through TestFlight is simulated; you don't actually get charged anything).

mjeshurun

Zac @ Soulver: Great news! When pressing the link you included on the iPad, the app stire opens the page for Soulver version 2.9.1. 
Do we need to delete the current stable version before we can install the beta version?
Edit: Never mind, I see you've updated the link from the one that was originally sent with the notification email.

Zac @ Soulver

mjeshurun: Sorry, the correct link is here: https://testflight.apple.com/join/Vlb55Wtr

Markus Schicker

Zac @ Soulver: Awesome - thanks a lot!

Been vaguely keeping an eye on this; still waiting for an iOS version before I upgrade (a majority of my use is on the iPhone). Is there any news on this?

Fergal Armstrong

Hello. I just wanted to add my support for any release of Soulver for iOS. I understand that's hard to do and you have to do what's right for you, but if you can make it happen I would pay the same price as any Mac app. I'm lucky enough to have access to the old version of Soulver for iOS still and I use it every day, so I know I would get my money's worth. Thanks for reading and best of luck.

Zac @ Soulver

Fergal Armstrong: Appreciate the support Fergal.

An iPad version of Soulver 3 is planned and in development.

Adam Menges

Zac @ Soulver: Looking forward to this! Thanks!

Pietro Tarsitano

Zac @ Soulver: any update?

Zac @ Soulver

Pietro Tarsitano: It's coming along great (about 70% complete).

Pietro Tarsitano

Zac @ Soulver: Good! it will be a iOs version iPhone compatible i guess..

Zac @ Soulver

Pietro Tarsitano: Just planning for an iPadOS version at the moment.

Pietro Tarsitano

Zac @ Soulver: ah that's a pity, no iOS planned at all? neither after the iPadOS will be released?

Zac @ Soulver

Pietro Tarsitano: no plans for it right now, but we'll see what happens down the track.

Pietro Tarsitano

Zac @ Soulver: Ok I see, but please consider that a iOS app would be probably much more useful and used by the most of the users.. I guess

Scott Rychnowski

Pietro Tarsitano: Zac @ Soulver, I've still been using Soulver 2 since I can sync from my iPhone. I use it to track spending, especially when I'm on the go.
