What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Selecting the ratings shows "N/A"
2. All the time
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect a rotten tomatoe but instead I see "N/A"

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
iPhone 3G, not sure of version. iTunes App Store says it's 1.1 (1.2 not 
available apparently), HOWEVER in iTunes, in my Applications Library, when 
I right click on the icon, and get info, it says it's v. 1.0.

Please provide any additional information below.
I've noticed that Rotten Tomatoes aren't showing up in other Apps either, 
so it's not just you.

I had highly recommended BoxOffice to a friend of mine, but after looking
every which way we can't find it in the Apple App store at all. Did
something happen?

Please add another option to the bottom bar allowing users to view upcoming
movies and their release dates.

I found the following free web service that you may be able to utilize to
accomplish this.

http://www.ignyte.com/webservices/ignyte.whatsshowing.webservice/moviefunctions.
asmx

and their page showcasing it: 
http://www.ignyte.com/services-web-services.html

Doing a quick google search, it seems to be widely used.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Looking for theaters in the 94703 Zip code


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
There should me alot more than 3 theaters listed. If you type in 94704 (The 
next closest zip), 
you can see all the movie theaters within range.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
v1.2/Now Playing, iPhone both using GPS & manual zip entry.

Please provide any additional information below.
This issue did not occur in the previous version of Box Office. Searching for 
94703 on 
fandango.com appears to list the proper theaters too.

Thanks!

** Enhancement Request **

Summary:
--------
This is a feature request for one which does not currently exist.  The
application provides the ability to select a movie theater as a "Favorite".
This is especially useful for those living in a large metropolitan area as
it filters those theaters to the top of the list.  However, living in an
area with many theaters in a small radius yields results of many "lesser"
theaters.  The application is great since it displays these theaters which
may not get the spotlight of some big-name chains.  However, some of these
theaters may be undesirable (poor seating, bad location, bad atmosphere,
etc.) to appear.  It would be nice to have the ability to exclude or hide
said theaters for basic results (Theaters main page, Movie
description/showing page), but make them viewable similar to the "hidden
theaters" option within the movie description page.  

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Tap "Theaters" from the application's home screen
2. View the theaters by Name or Distance
3. Tap on a theater
4. On the theater page, scroll to the bottom

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
1. The theater description page contains an option (possibly at the bottom)
to hide/ignore/exclude the theater from basic results.
2. Any hidden/ignored/excluded theater will not be displayed:
  a. on the Theaters page for both Name and Distance tabs
  b. initially on the Movie Description page
3. Will be displayed on the Movie Description page IF "Show X hidden
theater(s)" has been tapped
4. The Settings page contains a option to "Forget" ignored/excluded/hidden
theaters

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
BoxOffice v. 1.2 on iPhone 2.0 OS

Please provide any additional information below.

Excellent Application!  Thank you for developing and supporting this software.

I uninstalled and reinstalled Box Office on my new iPhone 3G and now it is not 
updating anything. I 
entered my zip code and nothing is coming up for title, theaters, nada. Please 
help. This is a great 
tool and now I can't use it.

Up 'til now, all worked great...
all of a sudden (today) while looking at the theater list, my "favorite"
theater simply disappeared!

zip: 48103
theater is Quality 16 (goodrich theater)
settings are set to 50 miles (and the theater is about 5 miles from my house)

that's the only theater not on the list...

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Just use the program
2. Go to Theatres tab
3. Find a theatre you like
4. Click the movie to read details
5. Try to go back to your theatre
6. Oooops, you're returned to a Movies list!
7. I guess program knows better what you wanted
8. Now you have to UNNECESSARILY click several buttons to come back to your 
theatre
9. Better watch yourself and be SURE you want movie details or else you need to 
re-find your 
theatre EVERY SINGLE TIME...
10. The whole routine gets OLD VERY FAST!

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I would like to come back to where I came from, not some tab app decides 
instead!!!


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Latest 1.2, latest iPhone update. 

Please provide any additional information below.

This app would be really nice if you had the option to modify the date that
you're looking at, maybe for the whole upcoming week.  This would be
extremely helpful to people trying to make plans ahead of time for the day
the movie is released.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. From Movies tab (title or rating), click on any movie (e.g., WALL-E).  See 
attached screenshot.
2. Note that thumbnail does not show and the text "Image not available".

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

An image.  Note:  I don't even get one for WALL-E, for which an image is 
displayed in the 
screenshots.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

presumably 1.0 (that's what the app store states), iPhone 3G w/ iPhone 2.0 
firmware

Please provide any additional information below.

 Before submitting this issue, I did the following:
1. deleted the app.
2. turned off wifi so I would be on 3G
3. re-downloaded and re-installed the app via the iPhone.
4. noted the same behavior -- so it is not a firewall issue

I have noted that no one else has filed an issue on this.  I'm not sure why.  I 
have a plain vanilla 
iPhone 3G (i.e., no hacks).

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Enter any zip code
2. go to Movies/ Theaters
3. Says No information found

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Should show movies but says "No information found" instead no matter what zip 
code I use.  This 
app prior to this new version and name was working great for me.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
v1.2  on iPhone 2.01

Please provide any additional information below.
Please help I would really like to use this app but I am so frustrated now that 
I have to delete it 
and use another app that I don't like as much. Thanks

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Launch the application
2. Observe the "Admit One" launch screen
3. Once finished loading, observe the stark contrast between launch screen and 
loaded 
application

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: The Launch Image should approximate what will appear in the loaded 
application to 
minimize the appearance of loading
Observed: The current launch image is a form of "artistic expression," in 
violation of the HIG 
found at 
http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptua

I see titles starting at G (Get Smart is the first title listed), not A.

1. I downloaded BoxOffice from my iPhone on 7/27/2008

BoxOffice 1.0 on iPod Touch OS 2.0

Please provide any additional information below.
This is only an enhancement

With version 1.2 you have delivered Everything I wanted in an application
of this type, but I would be really pleased to see a better icon. I'm sure
you could find something here:

http://interfacelift.com/icons-mac/

and get permission from one of the artists. Thanks so much though for
making such a great app!

Add entry to 'Settings' view.
Persist entry.
In 'All Movies' list, show the times that the movie is playing at their 
favorite theater

Place favorite theater at top of 'All Theaters' list (with a Home icon).

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. zipcode 30114
2. range set to 50 miles
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
more theaters - other free movie apps return at least 10 theaters. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.0 iPhone 2.0

Please provide any additional information below.

Get a synopsis or summary (spoiler fee) of the movies from the movie listing in 
the Theater List.

This kind of app would be great for me if it worked in Canada as well.
Kinda pointless if we can't search via postal code, seems to render the
whole app useless up here.

I would love to have a Double Feature option that would display what movies 
will be starting right 
after your first choice is let out. I don't get to the theater as often as I'd 
like and often make a day of 
seeing multiple movies. This would help me plan my schedule better!

I can find nowhere the VERSION number for Box office!  Even when I download
the upgrade, the Get Info still says Version 1.0 in iTunes.  But I can't
confirm the upgrade since the app doesn't tell you!  Please add a version
number to this App!  Thanks!

In the theater detail screen, in the address area, add a line break after
the street address, before the city. Very long street addresses are
overflowing the space.

Many theaters are missing in Phoenix/Scottsdale area.  I haven't looked at
it too closely, but all of the Harkins theaters are missing.  

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Pressing the locator button in the settings menu.


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected output - full Canadian postal code (ex.A5A6N6)
Only the first half of the postal code shows up instead (ex. A5A) which
does not allow the program to work as intended. If the postal code is
entered manually the program works perfectly!

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The area I live in has one theater within the 50-mile radius of my home
town. About 35 miles away is another theater I often visit, but it doesn't
fit into the 50 mile radius currently allowed. If I set the zip code to
include that theater, my home town theater doesn't show up.

Can we get 75 miles as a possible choice for the radius? That'd help me see
more than just the 5 movies playing my small town. :D

Please provide any additional information below.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expected to see "The X-Files" under "X." Instead, it's under "T," as are 
every movie that begins with 
the word "The." This is outdated programming. The Following words should be 
*ignored*, when 
sorting alphabetically:

A

Setting not available as an option. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Please provide any additional information below.
Amazing up and the latest update makes an already stellar app even better.
Would it be possible to add an option to turn off ratings all together. I
love metacritic, but I'd love to browse a list of movies without skewing my
opinion by seeing a score right next to its title. Thanks!

I have rev 376 which generates approximately 4 errors and 3 warnings on

Had version 7/11 which worked well.  Now tried version 7/12.

Please provide any additional information below.
I used version 7/11 several times last night.  Left it on a page displaying a 
single movie with 
show times at 3 theatres.  Downloaded your new version available on 7/12 and it 
opens with the 
same page I stopped with last night.  A busy icon rotates in the upper right 
corner for 3 or 4 
seconds, then app crashes.  Can't push any buttons to get to other screens 
before the crash.

Any plans to release this in Australia?

Love the app!!  I know many others who think this one is great too :)

Feature request - since you can see the rating for the film, it would be
great to be able to read some of the reviews - even if it's just a link to
MobileSafari.  

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Delete BoxOffice
2. Go to App Store, try to get
3. view error: "The item you've requested is no longer available."

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Even viewing the BoxOffice "page" at the App Store produces the above message, 
any further 
action is forestalled.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I'm afraid I deleted it, so I cannot check the version. The precipitating event 
was an announced 
update on 7/31. The update did not process, so I deleted the old one and tried 
redownloading it.

Please provide any additional information below.

 Thanks for a great App, hope to use it again, when this gets sorted.

I do not see the trailer for any movie. However your app description on 
iTunes says that its there...

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Upgrade via app store, launch app when done.  
2. Go to settings, enter zip/press auto-locate, change distance to 50 miles.  
3. Go to movies screen, nothing shows.  

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Movies should display. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Version 1.2 on iPhone 2G  2.0.1

Please provide any additional information below.

One feature that would be really great would be to have a link directly to
the movie trailers.  

Not sure if there's anyway to automate this from a place that has some Open
APIs to movies, but I know that Apple has tons of trailers at
http://www.apple.com/trailers/ which redirects to
http://apple.com/trailers/iphone when viewed on the iPhone.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I downloaded the 1.2 version to see if it had been updated to give
Canadian theater support.
2. It hadn't
3. This site: http://cinemaclock.com has Canadian theaters.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Movie theaters and times, instead I see 'No information found'

I installed BoxOffice on my iphone, and set 80403 as my location. I went
today to look up where Sex and the City was playing, and what times.

1) The movie wasn't listed under "movies".
2) The movie wasn't listed under any of the theaters.

Upon going to fandango.com I found out the movie was still playing at the
UA Denver West Village Stadium 12 theater, but still wasn't listed in the
Box Office application. I looked at BoxOffice again, and noticed several
movies that weren't out in the last 2 weeks weren't listed either.
