Duh! Now I see it. I was thinking it was under the ReQall area, didn't know it was in the Notifications area.

Move along. Nothing more to see here.

When I first installed the new version, it prompted me to allow/not allow push. I didn't allow it. Now, I don't see any way to change that under settings. What am I missing?

Kierstin,

When I ran the beta, I removed the application from the iphone and from itunes. Then I synced. I then added the beta version and synced again.

I followed a similar process to remove the beta and add the GA version.

All still seems to be well with the application.

I successfully used the beta version and installed version 2.0.3 this morning from the app store.

Thanks for addressing this issue. I work with many software companies and rarely do I encounter one that is responsive as this team is.

I have been unable to reply for the last week or so but have been using the new version of reQall. Even with the new version, I sometimes get very rapid battery drain; but, it isn't as consistent as it once was. There is something in the pattern of usage (eg, launch reqall, add a to-do via voice, sync, page to jogger, close app -- or some other pattern) that causes it to drain the battery. I've been heads down at work so I cannot trouble shoot to get the specifc pattern that causes the problem, but one of these weekends I will try to determine.

If anyone else has noticed the when it does and when it doesn't lose battery, let me know.

Thanks.

Deb, I understand what you are saying regarding returning to the home page stops reQall from running, et al. My experience, however, is that when I return to the home page after running reQall my battery dies quickly. When I uninstall reQall, the problem with the battery disappears. The ONLY common thread I can find is with reQall.

Deb,

First, thanks for taking the time to respond to my question.

Second, I was not leaving reQall active. I was returning to the home screen after use and the battery continued to drain.

I noticed that the new app was loaded in the app store today so I will d/l it and give it a try. I hope that it resovles the issue.

Thanks for the response, Deb. I will wait until next week to see if Apple approves the app and if it fixes the problem. This is a show stopper, though; so if this doesn't work I will be forced to delete the app.

iPhone battery drain

Since adding Reqall to my iPhone, the phone's battery life has been terrible. Once I use the application, the battery drains in about 4 hours. If I reset the phone, everything is fine until I use the application and then I'm back to a total, rapid battery drain.
