Currently on my todo list for the next update to Private Info:

*Reduced memory footprint
*Increased Stability
*Replace background images and other images with custom drawn views for better performance and reduced memory usage
* Increased photo import resolution
*HD video importing/recording up to 10 minutes for iPhone 4
– Increased 3GS video import quality, also up o ten minutes
(the 10 minute limit is apples limit for apps)
*completely retina display ready graphics and artwork.

- Features that are iPhone 4 and iPhone 3GS specific are now hidden on devices that do not support them

Stuff I plan to add in the near future:

* wifi video/photo importing/sharing
* Web browser
* Multiple photo import
* More categories for main wallet list

I’m sure I’ll add more to this list as the app grows.

An update was submitted this morning to fix a couple bugs that were reported and a few minor interface changes.

* Previous versions of Private Info.app would delete an item from the list if it had no text in the title. This has changed, nothing is auto-deleted now…

* Video Thumb Icon image has been slightly refined to better match iPhone OS style.

* Various Memory cleanups and minor bug fixes

- Apple still does not allow the 3G to select video from camera roll due to not having a hardware decoder. If they ever allow it (since we all know video still works just fine anyways) , it will be immediately added to the app.

- Still working on a good solution for backing up data // I’ll keep you posted.

Private Info v1.0.3 has been submitted, this version includes a few new features as well as some significant changes to the UI.

* Added “action” buttons to the following fields:
– Phone # : you can now call the number by tapping the button next to it
– Website : Option to open link in safari app
– Address : This button will open a map view with a pin at the address shown

*UI Changes:
– Slightly different color shades used throughout app to provide a cleaner looking interface

– Font adjustments for iPhone style appearance and ease or reading

Other changes:

-Lots of internal cod cleanup to reduce memory usage and increase overall application speed / Launch times.

– Less images used, reduced image filesizes = Reduced overall application size.

– When the main list is in edit mode, the content is repositioned so not to be covered by editing controls.
