Google doesn’t like my ads

I know some of y’all heard about Math Touch from Google, because I can see you clicking through. Once you’ve found it, please bookmark me and tell your friends (’cause I pay for every time you click the ad). I’m glad y’all are getting through, but my best ads haven’t even been approved — the ones that tell you the app is for iPhone and iPad. Here are some of them. Personally I think they’re hilarious and quite to the point, but Google says they contain a “trademark term” so they are disapproved. Why did they approve that first one? Chalk it up to corporate bureaucracy.

I will be updating Math Touch with new features for the forseeable future. Some features may warrant a price increase. Which feature do you want me to work on the most?

September 15, 2010, 11 AM: Apple has approved Math Touch, version 1.0
The app will go live in the iTunes App Store sometime today. At that time, the link from the App Store button will work.

It’s been two years and three months in development. I’ve seen two iPhone operating systems come and go, and the introduction of the iPad, which makes the app an absolute dream.

I have finished beta-testing. I am now writing up help text and web-marketing. I am also writing the script for the tutorial videos.

The first beta-version has gone out to select beta-testers. In the mean time, I’m working on improving the built-in equation database, a couple of usability features and the website.
