We are pleased (relieved) to announce that the 113th Congress is now available to be unlocked in Congress, Congress+, and CongressPro.
The in-app-purchase gives you the benefit of our 541 phone calls to every elected office on Capitol Hill as well as the long hours of programming and additional research that supported it.
The cost? 99¢. That’s a lot less than what others are charging for printed books that never get updated and are likely already out-of-date.
If you do not see the update in the App Store or if your current app is acting up, delete it, re-download it, and you should see the in-app-purchase offered after the splash screen. If you have any questions, please email us at 113update [at] congressinyourpocket.com.
Over the next several months, we will continue to update the apps with new functionality and content. We will continue to update Congress+ and CongressPro apps with staff, committee, and subcommittee assignments as they become available.
First on the docket from a design perspective, will be a redesigned iPad app for Congress+ and CongressPro users, which will take better advantage of the increased space over iPhones. Continue to look here for screenshots of the upcoming version.
We hope you enjoy the new information and we look forward to providing for you new content and features over the next two years for paid upgraders.

I understand not all of the subcommittee assignments were available when the update for the 113th congress went live, but will the ability to look up members by committee assignment eventually be included? This would be a very helpful addition to an already great app.

Thanks for your question, outsideman. This is a feature in CongressPro (http://appstore.com/congresspro), which also includes over-the-air updates.
