Ael719, thanks a ton!!! I don't know what to say. I thought we've realized 10% of all our ideas, but now I'm thinking that we don't even begin to move...

Hello GMAT Club Mobile Users, Next update of GMAT ToolKit has been submitted and will be available in a week. We would like to thank members ael719 and vasanthanand for great feedback! (discussion of the GMAT Toolkit is available here) Improved Books tool: - bigger buttons and answer options - auto-jump to next question. - previous answers disappear if the timer is on. (More close to real exam conditions).  We are working on adding examples for idioms, new math topics, and a few surprises  Thank you for your feedback! If you have any suggestions or ideas, just let us know and we will do our best to implement them as soon as possible! Warm Regards, Walker GMAT Club Mobile Team Attachment:

It would be great to have our applications for majority of mobile phones and I hope we will make next step in this direction soon but it will be rather BlackBerry or Android than Nokia.

Hello GMAT Club Mobile Users, A new update for GMAT ToolKit app is available - it was approved in record 28 hours! Usually it takes up to 2 weeks from submission until the update is released and we can't believe our luck. If it's a change in Apple's policy, it's great news as we can implement your suggestions and ideas within days. And as always, if you have any thoughts about our applications and community, we look forward to hearing from you. Warm Regards, Walker GMAT Club Mobile Team

thanks! Thanks for the question. Let me ask BB. We don't produce questions specifically for this exercise, instead we have a system to generate them based on GMAT Club Tests and Forum Discussions where the best questions are found and put into blog post, and though it is largely an unmanned process, it usually ensures that questions are actually interesting and difficult.

Your words add more energy to push development further  By the way, if you have any suggestion/idea, just let us know. I can't guarantee that we immediately implement all of them but some of them we probable can do fast. Next update will be in a few weeks and will contain some very interesting innovations (Yeah, I wish I had them 2 years ago when I prepared for GMAT). Additionally we are going to add error/time log for OG Quant 1 and OG Verbal 1 as some of you asked. So, next update will be essential. Best, Walker

I've just finished new tools. Guys, can't wait to share with you information about a new update. You will get an incredibly powerful tool! We need a couple days to polish new features and add OG Verbal and Quant 1 error logs. I hope to submit it at the end of the week. Believe me, you won't be disappointed. Best, Walker

So much less bulky than flash cards! This application is great because it allows me to study on the go. I would definitely recommend it to anyone studying for the GMAT. Best of luck to all you test takers our there.

I'm still confused as to what this app does. Does it provide questions and answers from the books shown or is it just a timer?

Thanks for the fast and detailed response. To sum it up, the app is a timer + it tells me right away the answer as soon as I submit the answer. I'm glad it covers OG11 (or at least in the upcoming update) as that's what I have. It also includes all the questionnaires with answers from the forums, right? A few additional questions. Do you guys have plans on updating it also for future OG releases (13, etc.)? And also I noticed that it also includes 2-3 other Kaplan books--do you recommend for us getting those books also? Currently I have (I got them in 2008 but lack the motivation to proceed then  ): * Princeton Review - Cracking the GMAT 2008 Ed. * Kaplan - GMAT Premier Program 2008 Ed. * Kaplan OG 11th ed. Thanks in advance.
