  • We’re almost done with the next update, in v.1.1 we added new features to the timelines such as Inline Full Image Previews that slowed our timeline scrolling a bit, fret not, we smoothened it out quickly and v.1.2 will have it all fixed and buttery smooth again.
  • Trial Mode, with v.1.2 we’ll have our Trial Mode enabled so that users can try the app before buying
  • A few new features and one more new cool gesture that goes nicely with our double-tap quick reply.
  • Performance tuning and improvements and fixes
