Feeds Jumps to Version 1.94
June 24, 2010 — Mike (admin)We just sent an update to Apple a few minutes ago. This update fixes the iOS 4 issues with popups (username/password entry and tags) and also fixes the feed list now showing new items. We also managed to stick a couple new features in there. You can now save a bookmark to Delicious along with tags and Instapaper Mobilizer can be used to view web pages in Feeds. Enjoy your fancy new iPhone if you got one!
Feeds and Google Reader Authentication
April 6, 2010 — Mike (admin)This one goes out to anyone who is having problems logging in with the newest version (1.91) of Feeds. The only people who will be affected are those that have a Google login that is both for Google Apps and regular Google services. We just submitted a fix to Apple. To remedy the situation you will need to open the Settings.app and change the new ‘Login Type’ setting to Google. This will force Google to not use your Google Apps account which should get you logged in properly. Thanks for your patience.
Update (04/07/10): Feeds just changed status to ‘In Review’.
Update (04/07/10): Feeds just went live. Anyone who was having login issues post here if they are resolved.
Feeds Version 1.91 Available Now
April 5, 2010 — Mike (admin)Not much changed in this version but it is very important that you update ASAP. Google will be changing the way logging in to Google Reader works in “early April”. If you are using an older version of Feeds you will not be able to sync with Google Reader. Besides that, there is a new setting for the posting of links to Instapaper, ReadItLater and Twitter. Be sure to set your preference before proceeding.
Tweets and Feeds New Versions In Apple’s Hands
March 29, 2010 — Mike (admin)After a long 2 weeks of iPad preparation (more on that later) we managed to get an update for both Tweets and Feeds out to Apple. Feed’s update is a small one but an important one. (more…)
Feeds Version 1.81 Ready for Apple
January 24, 2010 — Mike (admin)The long awaited update to Feeds is heading out to Apple tomorrow morning. Not too much as changed in this one but there were two handy items…well, for most people just one handy item. The second item is aimed at Feeds blind users and those with accessibility requirements.
Feeds Version 1.8 Off to Apple for Review
December 6, 2009 — Mike (admin)We sent off the newest build of Feeds to Apple for review. Hopefully it will take them less than a month to get this one out. This version contains the following:
- You can now add a note to any article (if using Google Reader)
- Fixed a crashing bug when deleting a folder
- Fixed the ‘Get 20 more’ issue when show only unread was turned ON and it didn’t actually return 20 more
Enjoy!
UPDATE (12/11): In record time Apple has finished reviewing the update and it is now live. This marks by far the quickest update we have ever received clocking in at just 5 days. 2.5 weeks was the previous record and it has most often been over a month. Maybe Apple doesn’t hate us as much as we thought…or maybe they just forgot to tell the new guy to stick our updates on the back burner for a few weeks before looking at them.
Feeds Version 1.73 sent to Apple
November 9, 2009 — Mike (admin)A fairly minor update was just sent to Apple a few hours ago. Fixed in the update are:
- unread count issue when marking an item as read
- an odd issue that comes up when portrait only is set and you hold your iPhone sideways while navigating to the article view page
Edit: Just a short 21 days after we submitted the update to Apple version 1.73 has officially gone live in the App Store. You should get update notifications in the App Store shortly.
Feeds Users not Using Google Reader for Syncing – OPML Export
October 8, 2009 — Mike (admin)This one goes out to all our users who have been around since the early days of the App Store. A long, long time ago Feeds didn’t sync with Google Reader and instead did all syncing through our servers. Once we added Google Reader support a HUGE majority of our users ditched the old way of syncing and in a way, so did we. All new features were made for Google Reader syncing only unless it was dead easy to add for old style users. (more…)
