Spot The Balls - Updates




All of the Spot The Ball games are having an extra function that will be available in new updates which allows the player to goto a specific number image, this has been added to give the ability to goto the new images that are being added to the games and skip to any image in the library.

Revision Aid updates



Revision Aid App Update

It came to my attention that the scrolling on the answer was not working on the answer, this only occurs on longer answers but has been promptly fixed and will be available in version 1.11 and should be available by the end of next week pending the Apple review process.  Thank you to the user that brought this to my attention. 


Web site update

I have noticed a few short test quizzes creeping into the system, this is perfectly fine but I am now filtering these out in the public library, only quizzes with five or more questions will be shown in this section.  These will still be available in your personal section.

It's brilliant to see some quality quizzes being added now, these are not only useful to the creator but others with a similar interest, I'll be looking at adding download statistics to show how popular your quiz is.  I know a student that was thrilled to see a quiz on American Politics which has helped him over the Easter holidays.

General news

I've had a number of queries from schools recently who are trialing iTouches in the classroom who are looking at using Revision Aid as a study aid, this is very encouraging and I'm looking forward to seeing some quality quiz content from teachers and students alike.   I will be implementing many of the requested online and app function requests  over the coming months that everyone will be able to benefit from.

Keep the suggestions coming.
