CheckMy!Box is the ideal app to access your AVM FRITZ!Box: 1. Show the FRITZ!Box Call List 2. Playback and delete voice box messages of your FRITZ!Box answering machine 3. Display and delete fax messages received by your FRITZ!Box fax machine Multiple FRITZ!Box devices can be configured (e.g. Private, Office etc.). In addition you can combine several lists as groups to easily get an overview across all your devices. The voice box messages and received fax documents will be downloaded from the Fritz!Box, stored within the app and can be accessed also in offline mode when your iPhone cannot connect to the Fritz!Box. Access to the FRITZ!Box is also possible outside your local WiFi network if the option "Grant access to storage to users from the Internet" is enabled and you configured the MyFRITZ! service or a dynamic DNS domain name in your Fritz!Box. Prerequisites for using the app: - You need an AVM Fritz!Box - Voice box and fax messages: Answering or fax machine must be configured in your Fritz!Box. Currently the AVM Fritz!Box models 7590, 7490 and 6490 with the latest firmware are supported. In principle it should also be possible to use other Fritz!Box models with this app, but those were not yet tested. If you have feedback about using the app with other models please let us know by sending an email to support@checkmybox.de. In case the file format or the way messages are stored by the Fritz!Box answering or fax machine should be changed in future firmware versions, we'll make all effort to adopt this app accordingly. Nevertheless it cannot be guaranteed that this is technically possible in all cases. The app comes with a detailed setup wizard which easily guides you through step-by-step instructions on how to configure your Fritz!Box and the required settings within the app. If you have questions, suggestions for improvements or need help in setting up this app, please don't hesitate to send an email to support@checkmybox.de. We're happy to assist you and your feedback is highly appreciated. AVM, FRITZ! and FRITZ!Box are registered trademarks of AVM GmbH, Berlin (Germany).

About

ShredLog

ShredLog is the first goal tracker and electronic journal for Footbag! Why ShredLog? To have a tool that will help you to reason about your game. The more you know about how you are kicking (e.g., tricks you are hitting), the more you can adjust your game to, for example, practice tricks or concepts you haven't practiced a lot. This will help you become a more well-rounded player. The idea for the app came about over many years of kicking experience...I started kicking in the late 1990s. I have early memories, just a few, of doing mirages and butterflies during lunchtime at High School. When I entered university in 2000, I was blessed to be just down the road from Greg "GFSmoothie" Nelson. He changed the course of my life to one that would include footbag for decades to come (and still going!). During my footbag career thus far, I have had numerous notebooks with notes from footbag sessions, including tricks I hit, how many times I hit them, etc. As I completed one notebook, I would buy another and the old notebook would eventually get lost to time. As a result, I don't have any history of the kinds of tricks I was hitting, say, 5 years ago. If I had a way to save all of my notes into one place, and be able to reason about it (e.g., by having summary statistics about the tricks I wrote down), I believe I would be a much stronger player. This was the motivation for developing this app: Give Footbaggers, both newcomers and seasoned veterans, a tool to help them remember and reason about their game. ShredLog has four main features, each described below: A. GOALS, B. JOURNAL, C. STATISTICS, D. DICTIONARY. A. GOALS Set and manage goals. A goal consists of the following: 1. A trick name (NOTE: Tricks must be selected from the dropdown menu) 2. Set foot (i.e., which foot the trick starts on) 3. How many times you want to hit the trick 4. A start date and end date (i.e., a timeframe in which you want to hit the trick) Goals can be in one of four states: 1. TODO (A goal has been created with zero progress towards completion) 2. STARTED (A goal has been created with some progress towards completion, but not complete yet) 3. COMPLETED (A goal has 100% progress, and is therefore finished) 4. EXPIRED (A goal's end date is in the past) How goals work: 1. Set a goal (e.g., left-foot-set mirage x 10, from today until next week) 2. Enter tricks in your journal as you hit them (e.g., left-foot-set mirage x 5, today) 3. The app automatically updates your goals based on your journal entries, allowing you to focus on what you love: kicking! You will be congratulated once you complete a goal. B. JOURNAL ENTRIES ShredLog provides a journal for you to record all the tricks you hit. A journal entry consists of the following: 1. A trick name 2. How may times you hit the trick 3. The date you hit the trick How to use the journal: 1. Enter a trick (NOTE: Tricks must be selected from the dropdown menu) 2. Select the set foot (i.e., the foot that the trick starts on) 3. Enter how many times you hit the trick 4. Enter the day you hit the trick (NOTE: by default the day is set for the current day) ShredLog updates your goal progress for you based on your journal entries. C. STATISTICS ShredLog amalgamates your goal and journal data into useful summary statistics. It gives you information about the following: 1. Streaks (e.g., the longest number of days you have kicked in a row) 2. Goals (i.e., How many goals you currently have in each of the four states a goal can be in) 3. Journal (e.g., How many total tricks you have hit) 4. Most-practiced trick (What trick have you hit the most, how many times, and more) D. DICTIONARY ShredLog provides a searchable dictionary of information for over 700 footbag tricks. For each trick, this includes the following: 1. Trick name 2. Alternate names 3. How many adds the trick is 4. Job's notation (that is, an explanation of how to do the trick) I hope that you find ShredLog beneficial. Keep kicking! TJ
