This app was originally written for iOS 2 and maintained through iOS 6. Dropbox will stop working in June 2017 and a future version of iOS (likely iOS 11) will completely break the app. My Attendance2 app was written for iOS 5 and is still maintained today so I recommend you buy it instead. Attendance2 uses new internal data structures to support new features so the data format is not compatible. I recommend you start using Attendance2 at the beginning of a new term/quarter/semester. I will be pulling this app from the store soon. For over three years, the following paragraph has recommended people buy the new app.
Unless you are running iOS 6 or earlier I strongly recommend you buy my new Attendance2 app. It has all the features of this app (except for group texting which did not work reliably due to phone carrier restrictions) and more and runs on iOS 7.1 and higher. The changes Apple made in iOS 7 break some of the features of this original app (including getting photos from the photo library). See http;//www.dave256apps.com for more information about the new app.
Attendance is a universal iPhone/Touch/iPad app (runs on iOS 4.x and 5.x) that allows you to take and keep attendance records. Its main intended use is for teachers to keep track of records for their classes, but it can also be used for meetings and group gatherings. The attendance statuses are completely customizable. You can import names a number of ways including formatted CSV files that you store in your Dropbox account or send as email attachments. You can also import names from an Address Book group or you can enter the names by hand on your device. In response to a few of the reviews, I have updated the Attendance support web page with text describing the various import options and how to use the app. Links to the relevant videos are included along with the text descriptions.
