We are happy to announce that the first of the 2 updates has been approved by the Apple iPhone App Review Team.

The new version 1.4 has many  new actions some available to the free version here is a list of everything. I’ll be creating a video of then new actions and functionality shortly.

Display new file action overlay

Display new delete file confirm screen

Display file actions overlay in file view for images

New file naming screen

Favorite file indicator.

Have just submitted a large update for the free version of the app.

The new version adds in app purchase for upgrade. This will allow users of the free version to pay the upgrade fee and have all features unlocked.

These feature include additional file formats including movies, text file edit and create, the cloud service and some bug fixes.

The in app purchase allowed me to make the transition easy for the upgrade with you loosing or moving any files you have in the application.

I’ll post more details when the update is approved.

BUGS

Over the last few weeks i’ve been notified from some good users of a few minor issues with 2 aspects of File Locker 1.3 the paid version.

After some testing and changes I’ve corrected these errors an will be submitting a maintenance release to Apple within the next 24 hours.

Edit: The updates has been submitted to Apple for review… Bugs will be gone soon.

The 2 issues are.

1. With the cloud service download JPG files would not display even though they are downloaded to your device.
2. Multiple page documents would not scroll as expected.

UPDATES

I’ve been working on a huge update for File Locker Free, this update will give the users of the free version pinch and zoom on images, plus a way to update to the full version via In App Purchasing, which will unlock all the features available in the Paid version.

I’ll be submitting this version after final testing.

Feel free to leave comments and suggestions, follow us on twitter to get the latest news.

A quick note to mention that thefilelocker now has a specific twitter account where there will be updates and tips posted for the best ways to use The File Locker, it’s hoped that user will offer feedback and suggestions as well. so head over to Twitter and follow @thefilelocker.

The next version 1.3 for the paid app in now in review by Apple. Whats new for 1.3

AddFileView

- Support for MOV/M4V/MP4/MP3 files

- support for thefilelocker.com cloud service

DisplayFileView

- movie file play

Download from our cloud server

The most important part in the “Cloud Service”. This basically means that if you need to get a file into File Locker then upload to our server, where you’ll be given an anonymous short url like “jk3er.jpg” that you enter into the relevant screen in the app and the file will be downloaded to your device and removed from the server.
This is a new feature that will lead to other options in the new future. More information when details are finalised.

If you haven’t got The File Locker go get it.

File Locker Free gets an update as well. In the new version of our free app you’ll get the create and edit text file feature. This is very handy to create those lists of things you want but not allow anyone to be able to see. These updates are only a few weeks away.

Recieved notification today (17th Oct 2009) that File Locker 1.2 is ready for sale.

Create Text File

What’s new in 1.2 some minor changes under the hood and the following additions

- Added Pinch and Zoom for images

- Added Create and edit text files in app.

This will allow you to add new text documents or edit text documents.

On top of these there is a new icon.

More updates planned and being worked on, include support for mp3 and video. More information will be available when these releases are done.

Let me know if you have some worthwhile suggestions to improve the app or feature requests.

If you don’t have File Locker go get it.

Get File Locker from iTuenes App Store

I was a little surprised when the app was approved by Apple in 7 days, that was the start, and then today the first full day of sale for

File locker free now on the app store

the app yielded a total of 490 downloads “WOW Amazing”.. Ok I realise that for some thats not a lot but it was way better than I expected, and seriously a lot more than the Paid for version of the same App… I’m going to be interest to see how the downloads work or the next weeks or so. I’ll repost some more stats at that point. Needles to say I’m very happy with the result. As a side benefit more people know about the app and more sales of the full version have followed.

What’s next… Well updates of course. I’m working on a few for the 1.2 version of the app I hope to have out in the next week.  Oh and increase the daily use of the app for everyone by making it better of course and find some more ad networks for the free version, with the help of the people at www.mobclix.com.

I guess most of all I’d love to hear some feedback, so if you use File Locker or File Locker Free please leave a comment and or suggestions. Oh and thanks for downloading the app..

Just been notified that File Locker 1.1 has been approved and will be on the store shortly.
This update adds and email this file options in the display view and a nicer detail view.
In my testing I did not loose any documents stored in the previous version, however I cannot confirm that this is the case for everyone.

I’ve had some nice responses, comments, and suggestion which i’ll be implimenting soon. 

A few things that will be added shorthly are:

• new file types to support movie files
• in app text editor
• other networking access to get and add files to the app

If you have suggestions please let me know. Get it here….
