MakeSomeTime On Your iPhone

Working on the go or don’t have your laptop at hand? Well MakeSomeTime now has a scaled down, iPhone optimized version of the site. It is not a standalone app so you don’t need to install anything, just go to makesometime.com on your iPhone/iPod Touch and you should be good to go.

At the moment you can only use tasks, projects and clients. Reports and Invoices are inaccessible however you can always switch to and from the full version of the site with the links in the footer if you really need to access some features. Archiving and deleting tasks are also unavailable on the iPhone version of the site.

As usual any feedback on the iPhone version of the site would be much appreciated so don’t be afraid to let us know how you get on with it.

Import Projects From Basecamp

Yes that’s right. If you upgrade to a paid plan you can now import your projects straight from 37Signals Basecamp. This saves you the hassle of having to do it manually if you ever need your Basecamp projects in MakeSomeTime. If you have any feedback on the new functionality then please let us know.

At the moment the only functionality is importing projects however we might extend this in the future to importing timed tasks and other syncing.

MakeSomeTime Payment Plans

After our big news yesterday about the invoicing upgrade we are following up with some payment plans. It has been a long time coming and we have decided that this is the best way to move forward for everyone. We hope you find the plans acceptable and as always looks for your feedback on everything we do. So from today the limits on the service and prices are shown below.

As you can see we still offer the free version of MakeSomeTime and the upgrades are super cheap. If you need the extra breathing space login to MakeSomeTime and go to the Settings page to pick an upgrade plan.

Invoice Like a Pro

Yes that’s right. MakeSomeTime now has invoicing to make your working life as simple as it could possibly be. If you were smart you might have guessed this was coming after previous upgrades allowing you to set company information and budgets for projects. We felt this was an obvious addition to MakeSomeTime as we guessed the majority of you guys that use the service probably also have to create invoices. So we decided to make that as simple as possible for you. Below are some screenshots of the new invoicing section:

As always we would love to hear what you think about the new invoicing section of MakeSomeTime. We would also especially love to hear if you find any bugs or can think of any ways of improving the invoicing in MakeSomeTime. So login (or sign up) and get invoicing!

Service Update 11-10-09

Some more updates to MakeSomeTime have been applied today.

  • Small interface tweaks (It’s now easier to edit tasks/projects/clients).
  • You now click on a project/client name to see more information about that project/client.
  • Client interface has been extended so you can now insert client information like email and addresses.

If you have any suggestions or feedback about MakeSomeTime or the changes we are making then please give us feedback and let us know.
