Frequently asked questions
We've been waiting… What took you so long?
A multitude of technical complexities and the prioritisation of family and health over work. It's taken a few years to get things back on track, and I apologise for that. The new apps have been re-written from the ground up in a different programming language to allow for cross-platform compatibility. The images are the same, but not a single line of the original code remains in the new versions.
Are you going to update your old apps?
No. These are gradually being rendered obsolete by Apple's never-ending system updates. I wanted to get these new versions made before the old ones completely disappear.
Why subscription? Your old apps only required a one-off payment.
Yes, those were the good old days 😁 Something I learned the hard way: as apps age, they require ongoing work — while sales steadily decline. This makes the business model unsustainable. When I first realised this, I resisted going subscription-only because I didn't want to inflict it on my customers. When I realised I was just delaying the inevitable, that's when I got things properly moving forward again.
What about Road Pad and Road Board?
These are currently being redeveloped and are coming soon.
How can I import my saved files from Road Board to Roads?
Have a look here for the full instructions.
What about Routes and DL25 — Mock Test?
It's on my to do list to revisit these apps and see if I can bring them more up-to-date.
What about Android?
Coming soon!
Lessons is about to go live on Android any day now.
Roads will be arriving soon after.
Will my subscription work across iOS and Android?
Unfortunately, it is not possible to make the same subscription work across the two different platforms.
