Giveaway: 10 Free Copies of Meeting Time for iPhone

UPDATE: I have emailed the redeem codes to the first 10 commenters. I missed to point out is that the redeem code only works with iTunes US account (Apple, please improve this!). If you’ve received the code and you don’t have an US account and wish to pass to the next commenters, reply me and let me know. For other people who missed this time, don’t worry, we will do it again soon.

Apple has now started allowing us (iPhone developers) to give away free copies of our iPhone applications. So this week we are going to give away 10 copies of Meeting Time. The first 10 commenters with a reason why they need this tiny little iPhone app will get themselves a redeem code through email (so make sure you have spelled your email correctly).

Here the little description about Meeting Time:

      I often have to organize meetings with customers and coworker and I’d love to try this utility. Thanks.

      I need to periodically schedule conference calls with customers, business partners, and co-workers across multiple timezones and this neat little app would come in handy.

    • Paul says on December 3rd, 2008 at 10:20 am

      working remotely on a project at the moment with folk in our US office and European offices…I keep getting the time zones mixed up :( and missing meetings.

      My boss gives me into trouble :(

    • Spinosum says on December 3rd, 2008 at 10:23 am

      I am working in a busy hospital and often many meetings are scheduled in the midst of the already busy ward work. So this software will come in handy. :)

    • vvvlad says on December 3rd, 2008 at 10:24 am

      Hi,
      I live and work in Israel. Most of my contacts are in USA, COsta Rica, Penang…

      Working with a few people from all around the world on a new toy that should help get kids to move from the computer screen and play face to face. As the game aims to serve kids all over the world we have team member from many places.We usually have to go through this whole ceremony to find and schedule a meeting

      Looks like this little app will be really helpful to get these meeting up and running in no time.

    • iErwin says on December 3rd, 2008 at 11:03 am

      I think I may actually need this app.

    • Vik Dulat says on December 3rd, 2008 at 11:09 am

      I am a motivational speaker and helping out youth who are struggling in their teen years. I would love to add this app to my iPhone so I can simplify scheduling and spend less time scheduling meetings.

    • Victoria S says on December 3rd, 2008 at 11:14 am

      I need this iPhone app because I teleconference regularly with people in different timezones!

    • Bill says on December 3rd, 2008 at 11:22 am

      I’m regularly organising meetings on both sides of the globe. Being sat in between China and the USA can be difficult at the best of times.

      You’d think I could do this in my head but alas, no. This App would help.

    • Wayne says on December 3rd, 2008 at 11:26 am

      I am managing an international project and often have conference call with people on the other side of the globe. This app will definitely help.

      Thanks!

    • Randall says on December 3rd, 2008 at 11:32 am

      I need it to schedules conference calls across time zones.

    • Fox says on December 3rd, 2008 at 11:44 am

      My family lives in Germany, I have friends in China and Australia, I talk to London and Tokyo at work most of the time and I live in NYC. I definitely need this app. :) Thanks!

    • Tom says on December 3rd, 2008 at 11:46 am

      My boss is in California, my team in Europe and Asia. I am in the middle ;-)

    • Marty says on December 3rd, 2008 at 11:53 am

      I am manage projects in L.A., N.Y. & Germany and do conference calls with people in Germany about twice a week. I could totally use this app.

      Thanks!

    • Andrew says on December 3rd, 2008 at 12:40 pm

      Well I could really use this app for a few reasons. The main one is that most of my friends have just headed out to college in different parts of the US, Canada, UK, Hong Kong, and I am about to go to Australia to begin my university. We still try to regularly skype with each other, but it would certainly be easier if there was an app to help work out the best time for us.
      The second reason is that I haven’t actually got a credit card, which makes paying for your program a bit hard.
      I know you said just the first 10 would get it, and there’s already been 12, but if you would be able to just give out a couple more, that would be really appreciated.

      Cheers,
      Andrew

    • Matt says on December 3rd, 2008 at 2:03 pm

      I’m starting 75% travel with my job in Jan and need any and every tool possible to keep my girlfriend. If you don’t have any codes left I’ll take gift certs to 1800flowers.com……

      I might use it for work as well. Maybe.

    • Andrew says on December 3rd, 2008 at 2:16 pm

      This app would be a great way to schedule meeting not only for business but also with family and friends!

    • Dan Parker says on December 3rd, 2008 at 2:38 pm

      I have to schedule meetings with people spread across India, New Zealand, US, England and Germany. I work from Atlantic Canada. Finding a time has been a real pain – until now!

    • Heather Buzzell says on December 4th, 2008 at 12:08 am

      I implement projects across many different time zones using project and programming resources across the entire world. This would really help b/c I am always missing setting the correct time expectations for meetings, especially in time zones that are 1/2 hour off instead of a full hour off.

    • Doug Shipley says on December 4th, 2008 at 12:25 am

      I live in Virginia, but regularly have to communicate with people in Sydney, Hangzhou, Anchorage, Fairbanks, Salt Lake City and Atlanta.

      This app would come in handy.

    • Peter says on December 4th, 2008 at 2:05 am

      Hello, I would love to use this app to set up World of Warcraft raids as I am the guild leader and it can help me set a perfect time for everyone because there are people in my guild playing from around the globe and this app would be just perfect.

    • Nick says on December 4th, 2008 at 2:06 am

      I would love a copy of this app. Would be extremely useful for me as a university student.

    • Scott Stevens says on December 4th, 2008 at 3:20 am

      Is there still a copy I can try?

      Just hoping. Thank you for your help.

    • vvvlad says on December 5th, 2008 at 1:59 am

    • Wayne says on December 8th, 2008 at 1:36 pm

      I haven’t heard anything back from Stepcase about the app. Is there something I missed?

    • Leon Ho says on December 9th, 2008 at 7:09 am

      @Wayne: You just missed the 10 copies quota. But two of our the commenters have no US itunes account, I will send a redeem code to you and @Randall.

    • Hugo says on December 13th, 2008 at 6:59 pm
