Wolfram Genealogy & History Research Assistant 1.0.2

Wolfram Genealogy & History Research Assistant has been updated to version 1.0.2

Wolfram Genealogy & History Research Assistant is exactly what the name implies – a research tool for genealogists and historians, and it’s a Universal app – it works on iPhones, iPod touches, and iPads running iOS 4.0 or later.

It covers:
* Events that occurred while your ancestors were alive
* How common were surnames of your ancestors
* Weather history
* Demographics of towns and areas they lived in.
* Financial/economic information

It claims to assist you in mapping family relations – I’ll be exploring that feature at some point in the near future. It’s based on the Wolfram|Alpha computational knowledge engine, which is one of the information engines that powers Siri, in the iPhone 4s.

In the version 1.0.2 update, there are some minor bug fixes.

In-app recommendations have also been added.

Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad.
* iOS 4.0 or later.

It’s $4.99 and available from the Apple App Store:
* Wolfram Genealogy & History Research Assistant – iPhone/iPod touch
* Wolfram Genealogy & History Research Assistant – iPad

Research Logger 1.1 Adds iPad, iPhone 4 Support

Research Logger 1.1 from Spencer Hall has been released. Research Logger is a fairly new app – it came out at the beginning of July. It’s only taken a short amount of time to see a major new release – universal support has been added, allowing Research Logger to run in the iPhone 4 and iPad’s native resolution without upscaling.

So what is Research Logger? It’s an iOS app for genealogists to help keep track of their genealogy research – research that has been completed as well as research that needs to be done. It can take the place of a small notebook that many of us carry around to jot down notes and to-do lists.

Research Logger allows you to maintain separate entries for each ancestor, along with todo lists.

Changes/Updates:
* Fixed bug related to deleting log entries.
* Added iPad support as a universal app
* Added iPhone 4 support

Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad
* iPhone OS (iOS) 3.1.3 or later
