Studifutter on Flo's Thoughts

Discontinuing My Personal Apps

Mon, 01 Apr 2019 07:27:34 +0200

I’ve released Studifutter probably more than ten years ago, and to this day, it is still on the App Store. While I was often pleasantly surprised that it was still working, I didn’t find the time or the will to properly update it to support new cafeterias or the newest phones.

That’s why I have decided to sunset it along with Deadlines, which also hasn’t seen any updates in years. Both apps will soon disappear from the App Store.

Studifutter 2.2 – iOS 7 Update

Wed, 27 Nov 2013 20:00:00 +0200

When iOS 7 was announced this summer we planned to support it from day one with Studifutter and Deadlines. As you might have noticed, this did not work out as planned.

A few months later, today Studifutter gets it’s update. We got rid of all the custom textures and try to be more simple and straight forward.

We hope you like it. Get it on the App Store.

Studifutter and Deadlines on iOS 7

Wed, 18 Sep 2013 18:00:00 +0200

Today, Apple released iOS 7 to the public and the adoption rate might go even crazier than it did with the previous versions due to all the new bits this update brings. It’s the biggest update since the introduction of the iPhone OS back in 2007.

This is a huge opportunity for developers, they say. In an App Store filled to the max with Apps a new chance to separate from the masses came up when the new OS was introduced at WWDC in June.

Studifutter 2.1

Wed, 15 May 2013 18:00:00 +0200

Studifutter 2.1 is here. We’ve improved the performance again and added social sharing features. You can now share your plans to go to your local cafeteria via Facebook, Twitter or mail.

As with Deadlines 1.1.1, we added Crashlytics. If you want to help send the reports to us whenever the app crashes.

Hope you like it.

Studifutter 2.0.3

Fri, 15 Feb 2013 18:00:00 +0200

As of today, Studifutter 2.0.3 is available. Here are the release notes:

Fixes cosmetic bugs which caused some assets to randomly appear and disappear
Fixes the bug that caused the app to hang on first launch
Fixes the bug which caused the app not to display new data after hitting the re-download button
Downloads only the menu for the restaurant wanted
Notifies the user when there are no meals (during holiday breaks, i.e.) instead of just displaying an empty list

We hope this makes the experience quite a lot better.

Studifutter Update

Tue, 09 Oct 2012 09:00:00 +0200

A few years back, when the App Store just opened we began to develop this little app called Studifutter. We thought it would be a nice project to start with this new platform as it would present information we as students needed every day: the menu of our cafeteria. Back then, it was only the website (which looked terrible on the phones most students had back then) and our own little website, Studifutter’s predecessor, which parsed the original website to present the menu in a more smartphone-friendly manner.

Studifutter ist online!

Mon, 18 May 2009 19:28:23 +0200

Seit gestern ist nun endlich unsere erste App im App Store erhältlich: Studifutter. Damit kann man sich momentan die aktuellen Speisepläne für die Mensen in Nürnberg, Erlangen, Ansbach, Eichstätt und Ingolstadt anzeigen und sich auch per Google-Maps-Integration dort hin navigieren lassen.

Wer sich jetzt denkt “Schade, sowas hätte ich auch gerne für meine Mensa oder Kantine.” dem sei gesagt, dass wir im Moment an einer neuen Version mit offener Schnittstelle arbeiten.

Neuauflage des Mensa-Infoprogramms

Sun, 05 Oct 2008 19:26:14 +0200

Simon hat sich vorige Tage noch mal ein wenig ins Zeug gelegt, und seine Speiseplan-App überarbeitet. Jetzt das Programm vom iPhone aus über futter.florian-heiber.de¹ zu erreichen und erscheint dort in einem schicken, modernem Design. Allerdings lassen sich im Moment keine Termine mehr runterladen. Per PC- oder Mac-Webbrowser wird man auf die eigentliche Mensaseite weitergeleitet.

Danke, Simon! :-)

Immer wissen, was es in der Mensa gibt

Fri, 07 Mar 2008 19:24:50 +0200

Simon hat schon vor einiger Zeit ein kleines Tool entwickelt, mit dem er sich die aktuellen Speisen für unsere Mensataria von deren Website zieht und sie dann in iCal bzw. Outlook einfügen lässt, um sie dann so auf sein Handy zu syncen.

Jetzt hat er das Ganze noch webbasiert umgesetzt hostet das Projekt unter www.florian-heiber.de/speiseplan¹. Eine sehr geile Sache, wie ich finde. :-)

Es wird noch weiter daran rumgeschraubt, versteht es also bitte als beta. ;-)
