CardDroid Math is now available for the BlackBerry Playbook. They didn’t want any “droids” in the name so on that platform it’s called “Math Fact Flash Cards.” Check it out at BlackBerry App World at http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/content/89826. Same great app, different name. Have fun!

A helpful customer has reported a problem in version 2.2 of CardDroid Math. If you go to the “Built-in Problem Sets” screen of the “Recent Problem Sets” screen and tap the system back button (hardware button or bottom edge of the screen), CardDroid Math will unceremoniously crash. The workaround is to tap the big blue “Back” button toward the top of the screen. Version 2.3 is now available and looking rock solid!
Sorry for any inconvenience,

by Steve
WhitneyApps has updated our apps many times, but we’ve found that many people – especially Kindle Fire and NOOK color/tablet users – are missing out on our enhancements and fixes by continuing to use the old version. Now it’s time to change all that! Here’s how to get those updates. Make sure you have a working Internet connection before you do this. Read on for the specifics.

We’ve been approved as a commercial seller in Samsung Apps so all you Galaxy S and Galaxy Tab owners will see our apps soon complete with Samsung’s seal of approval. We’re deciding whether to bring drop2sync to the GalaxyTab so if you’d like to see that, please let us know! More news when the apps are approved and on sale!
CardDroid Math 2.1 Update
0128 days
by Steve
Jenny, an observant customer on the Amazon Appstore, spotted a bug in CardDroid Math 2.0 that affected selection of subtraction problem set number ranges. It’s fixed in version 2.1, which is live now on Android Market and should be available in the Amazon Appstore and the Barnes & Noble NOOK shop by January 20th if their approval process goes as expected.
Bonus: Version 2.1 has a new clean, easy to read icon. (It’s the one to the right.)
Remember, if you have trouble with one of our apps, send us email so we can help you out or fix the problem. And thanks again to Jenny!

CardDroid Math version 2.0 available now in the Android Market, the Amazon Appstore, and the Barnes & Noble Nook Shop for 99 cents.
Great for helping kids learn math facts – with levels for kids in Kindergarten to 4th grades (also preschool with adult help or older kids who would benefit from review or speed work).

Choose sounds including kids voices, tones, and new electric guitar and “castle” sound themes.
Choose from six new color schemes (bright, camouflage, pink dream, nebula, sunrise, blue & green). Choose whether to show the score and time. Add optional time limits for working on speed.
Great colorful new look!
