1. How often do you have to enter the Open Time 6 digit code to keep it polling?

2. If there is new Open Time via a poll, will it alert you with a chime (like new email) or do you have to keep checking your iPhone visually?

3. If away from home and using data plan (ie no wi-fi) does it eat up a lot of your data plan while it auto-polls?

Thanks for any answers.
1. Company currently has it set for every 10 polls.
2. Sound and/or vibrate, but must be the top open app.
3. Almost no data. Used to do it routinely on the international data plan.
Cheers

This app is great. Huge time saver. One hour of the one trip you don't get "Earlier time stamped" will pay for this app for many years to come. Perspective.

See the little 2x button in the bottom right of the iPad screen? Touch it.

And interesting enough, the way Apple runs its graphics, the iPad 1 and 2 will be a little fuzzy in 2x, but new iPad users will enjoy crisper screens in 2x mode.

No problem. Just ignore a huge % of your potential market. Your loss.

P.S. not FedEx and have no dog in the fight. Just an observation.

'Just an observation', by someone who has no vision of how many iPhone class Droids are used by FedEx pilots, or how much time might be involved rewriting and maintaing the app for the multiple hardware and software versions of Droids out there.
I also have other projects that I deem more important and rewarding than helping the Droids out.

Your app is definitely one of the sharpest on my iPad 1 in 2x though. And plenty good enough for what I do.

You're sounding like the Cantina bartender at the Mos Eisley spaceport. :cool:
BTW love Fx Cal.

My only complaint with the app is that it locks up most of the time when the BOT codes are required. Is there a fix in the works for this?

Please use the 'Feedback' link at the bottom of the Main Page of FxCal and send me some more info so we can get this figured out.
Thanks
