BlackBerry app developer Fabian Heuwieser has just let me know that a new (and much improved) version of LaterDude Pro has gone live. The new version brings the app to 3.0.2, and as one might expect, brings a whackload of new features. The changelog for the new version is as follows:
- When you create a new Calendar Event or Task via LaterDude Pro, you get to use the standard input screen for creating a new PIM Entry. Through that you can simply edit all the necessary info for each Event you create.
- The reminder time for the Event you set up is always set to 1 min. Through that it does not interfere with any calendars you sync your device with and you don’t have to change the default reminder time like you had to do in the previous versions.
- A Tell-A-Friend screen is now included, allowing you to spread the word about LaterDude Pro.
- The standard length for an event created with LaterDude Pro is now 10 min.
- The subject of an email can be set as the subject of the Calendar Event or Task.
- When you set an event from the Messages, it does not automatically preselect the ‘email’ keyword.
- You can add a custom keyword (next to the Call, SMS, eMail, Contact and Meet keywords).
- The day of the week will get displayed in the Dialog where you can quick-select the time and date for each Event or Task.
- Many other small bugs have been fixed.
If none of the above enhancements make any sense to you, chances are you’ve never used or tried (a free trial is available) LaterDude Pro. Let me break it down to you as quick as possible. It’s a simple app that reminds you to call, email or SMS someone at a later time. The app ties itself in nicely with your core apps, allowing you to easily add new events (reminders) to your calendar or tasks. You can set reminders while in your call log, email, SMS or address book list.
LaterDude Pro works just fine with all Berry models, as long as you have at least OS 4.5… and yes, it’s compatible with the Storm series too.
