Update to Digg's iPhone app
We've gotten a lot of great feedback on the Digg iPhone app, nothing more important than the fact that it needed to be a lot more stable and crash less often. We've been working on some stability improvements and are glad to announce that version 1.1.0 of the app is now available in the app store. These are the key changes:
- Closing the app on a Digg story page doesn't result in a crash when reopening the app
- A range of stability improvements allows the app to be used for longer periods without crashing
- We've added an "open in Safari" option for viewing websites from the story pages
- The app opens on the last page viewed when it was last closed
We know the app still crashes occasionally and are continuing to make improvements to ensure that it works well on all devices. Thanks for your patience while we work out the kinks.
We also want to let you know that we've heard your other requests, especially around the ability to comment directly from the app. We're happy to report that we're working on adding that capability to the Digg API and will include it in the app very soon. Other improvements are also in the works.
Please try out the latest version and keep the feedback coming!
