8-) Yesterday, our two applications, GMAT Toolkit and GMAT Club, became #1 and #2 paid GMAT preparation applications in USA AppStore for the first time! Although we have realized only 10% of all our ideas, it is a good sign to go ahead!
Thanks a lot, guys!!! It wouldn't be possible without you and your feedback! A little surprise for you will be unveiled soon
Good luck!
Warm regards,

Hi Walker, Have been using the apps on my iphone quite often as I am usually travelling and don't get sufficient time on my laptop for the same.
I have a suggestion, which could really help quite a number of members.
Could you include a way of having forum subscriptions in the app itself? Something like, lets say I want to subscribe to Maths - Quant forum on the club. I have done it and I keep receiving emails. But checking the thread or post from laptop and replying back to the forum is much easier than if I have to use my iphone browser for doing this.
Want I meant with including subscriptions was that app could do the following for the user:
1. The user gets to login with his GMAT club credentials for once. They could be kept intact like any other account app so that user doesn't need to login everytime
2. Give him an option to subscribe to any forum available in the club. For now lets say Quant forum.
3. The subscription should work as RSS. Fetching only the new updates!
4. A push notification feature when ever a new post or a thread arrives could be an additional advantage, but optional.
5. The app user opens the thread on the app and reads the thread in the app itself. It would be much easier than to click on the link and then the browser opens up and so on..
6. The user can have the option of to Quote or Reply, just like the options in the forum.
7. An editor opens up in the app and gives the user the easy of writing down the response.
I know it's too much to ask.. but looking at the current GMAT apps, I was really impressed with the quality of the same - both content and usage wise! They are commendable.
Currently I have enrolled for the GMAT club forums through google reader and I receive them as RSS feeds in my iPhone. But replying to the posts gets quite tedious if I have to use the current browser and its neva that easy!
We can either have this as an additional application from the GMAT club or a part of the existing one. I guess that is something which you could decide.
Hope the feedback helps and I see this in future...
