Changes from 2.0 to 2.1
Relative paths in server urls are handled correctly.
Minimum OS version requirement is iPhone OS 3.0.

I am getting login errors. I have no relative paths on my tracks url, and login works via safari on iPhone/iPod touch

Is the url publicly accessible? Can you point me at the server so that I can try to debug the issue?

I have the same problem.

Bummer! Thanks to Apple’s limited URL manipulation, I messed up the authentication again. It’s the port this time. The port information is getting lost when I send the request to the server.
The workaround is to use a server with default port. I’ll fix this issue in an upcoming release.

I have the server running on the default port (80). No relative URL. Still doesn’t work.

Hi, I am now able to install the app on iPhone running OS 3.0. I am able to login to my account at http://i.tracks.tra.in using WiFi but unable to login using 3G/GRPS/Edge. However, for other web browing needs I donot have any problem with 3G/GPRS/Edge access.

Hi, would you be able to post the server url that you are using, even if its and internal url?

@Shan
I am glad you are able to use the application now. I have not seen this issue in my testing yet. Does it show the progress spinner for a long time or does it come back immediately and say login failed?

I really appreciate your help in finding these issues.

Neat app! The offline functionality with sync is very handy and much faster than accessing the full Tracks interface via Safari.

Note that I also have the problem you mentioned above with accessing a non-standard port, but when I set it up on port 80 it worked fine.

Some enhancement suggestions:

1) iTracks appears to show tasks that are part of hidden projects, unlike the main Tracks interface. It would be handy for those to remain hidden (perhaps via an option).

2) Allow custom ordering (and/or hiding) of contexts. For example, on iTracks I would generally want to see the “errands” context before my “athome” context.

3) Allow custom ordering of tasks. For example, I may want to order the tasks in my “errands” context in the order I plan on doing them. I know this isn’t something Tracks itself supports currently but since iTracks stores items offline it shouldn’t be a problem to add a sort order.

4) Allow changes in fonts. I’d like to be able to set a smaller font.

5) Show some of the extra info in Tracks like due date. The default sort should be with tasks that have a due date first, just like the main Tracks interface. However, allow sort order to be changed as per #3.

Thanks for contributing this neat app. I hope to see more updates soon!

Ah - my fault. Incoming Port 80 is blocked by my (new) home ISP. I am running tracks on 443 - would that work with iTracks?

@nyc10023
It looks like iTracks fails to function with any port other than 80. This should be fixed in a future release.

Thanks for all those suggestions. I am re-writing the data management portion of the application for a future release. The new database architecture should allow most of the capabilities that you are looking for.

I’m glad to see a Tracks app for the iPhone! I was actually looking into writing one myself, since I’m getting very frustrated with some other GTD apps I’ve used.  I wonder if you’ll consider making your application open source, so others (and possibly myself!) could contribute and hopefully make a world-class productivity app.  In either case, I look forward to seeing great things. :D

Cool!

Any updates on iTracks?

I love the app and I am looking forward to use it on my own local installed Tracks site!

Hey I love the app too but as you mentioned in another thread it does leave us wanting more!

I did some research before I found this app because I was thinking of coding my own (or learning how to code for the iPhone) but I don’t have OSX or $99 for the appstore….
Back to the point, when I was doing my research I was trying to figure out how to use the REST API on the iPhone and came accross ASIHTTPRequest.

Please forgive me if your already using it or have a better way of doing things…
If your not, well I look forward to future releases and the ability to add tasks to our tracks installation!

Keep up the great work!

Is there any news on an update for iTracks? Running on port 443 and would like to try that. Moving to 80 is not really an option…
