Planbook Touch for iPad Released
Many of you may have noticed already, but Planbook Touch is now available on the Apple App Store. Planbook Touch brings many of the features of the desktop version of the software to the iPad. In no particular order, you can:
- Create a schedule that matches how you teach- rotating, A/B days and traditional schedules are all supported
- Enter Lesson information using six customizable fields
- Add assignments with due dates
- Bump and Pull Back Lessons. Make Non School Days
- Much more
Planbook Touch is also file-compatible with the Mac version of Planbook. You can sync files using the built in Dropbox support or by utilizing Apple’s iTunes File Sharing. Planbook Touch does not interoperate with the Windows version of Planbook
I’m tremendously excited by the opportunity that the iPad’s touch interface offers for Planbook. 1.0 is only a beginning. Updates (free) are really going to exploit the intuitive nature of the iPad and help make your teaching day a little easier.
Updates will be coming reasonably quickly to add features (in fact, an update is already pending as of this post to allow editing your schedule after creating your file).
