More on Blogpress

A few weeks back I wrote about problems I had with the Blogpress iPad app. Since then I have tried the app Blogsy and have found it okay.  It works well and doesn't crash.*  Really though, I like Blogpress and I have been hoping for an update to fix the problems.

* Sad way to compliment an app by saying it "doesn't crash".


According to the Blogpress page on iTunes, an update was promised that would restore functionality, so I have been holding out hope.  And yesterday, I noticed the update available and there was a feeling of excitement on my part.*

* How sad is it that I am excited about a blogging app?  I gotta get out more!

To be sure of a corruption free operation, I removed the old app before installing the update.  Things seem to go well, everything installed and I was able to set up my account.  No problems.  I even started to write a blog piece documenting all of this.  Then, boom!  Blogpress crashed again just like before.

So much for the update and so much for me using it for a while.  Maybe version 3.1 will work.*  It is really a shame though, not sure what really happened and not sure why things went so bad. I hope the developers care for they app and restore its functionality.

* I have since noted that the app has been removed from iTunes App store.  I guess the crashing problems are really universal.
