This week, Apple released the new iPhone/iPod touch firmware, on release, we got our hands on it early on our testing devices and found an issue with the application crashing on saving a file. After further investigation, our team of developers determined that this was caused by a bug introduced in the iPhone/iPod 2.1 Software Update.
That being said, our developers cranked in some overtime and have already fixed that issue. The update has already been submitted to the AppStore and is awaiting approval from Apple, which will hopefully be tomorrow or within the next 2 to 3 days.
Also, due to repeated enquiries, we would like to state that all these updates will be FREE to those who have already bought the app!
On another note, we’re proud to announce that our TextGuru File Server application for Windows is nearing its final stages of development and will be released soon for FREE ! So, keep checking our blog for updates!
Cheers!
