We are pleased to announce a new release of Hall Monitor for iOS (1.3.141), Android (1.3.142) and Windows 8.1 (1.3.0.141).

Here is the list of enhancements and corrections that are included in this release:

o Links colors were changed, and more space was allocated to each field

* Fixed a bug where we showed room id instead of room name in the classroom view

* Editing critical info / notes fields should now take up the whole page on bigger screens

* Formatting for the date in birthdays was changed for consistency

o On birthday pages (Windows/iOS/Android), the date is now shown in the same format as other dates within the app

* Removed popups in schedule when no course is shown

* On iPads, buttons are now correctly separated (critical info editing)

* Error messages will not show before the request comes (birthdays, classroom view)

o Error messages will only be shown when there is no birthdays or students, and not before the request is received

* Information section of a student (Windows 8) changed for student information. Address field modified to be consistent with other contacts

For next month’s release we are planning the following:

* User management

o Restricted information, depending on user role (admin, substitute teachers, teachers, principals etc.)

* Support for temporary users (supply/substitute teachers, volunteers etc.)
