YouTube upgrades today…

Wednesday, March 31st, 2010

YouTube is currently in the process of updating their service. We have had sporadic reports today that this has caused issues with some of our apps resuming YouTube sessions upon startup. This error is temporary. If your session is logged out, or if our framework is unable to resume your session, you will be presented with an error message.

If you see this error – video playback and other functionality should continue to function normally, it is only the community functions (rate, comment, subscribe, etc) that will be affected.

Of course, there may be other sporadic outages while YouTube performs this maintenance (and, perhaps in the days following if any “bugs” are discovered). If you see any other error messages, during this transitional time, don’t panic – our apps will resume normal function once YouTube is back to normal operation.

Updated Apps available (Service Releases).

Tuesday, March 23rd, 2010

As of last night/this morning, you would notice that there are pending updates  available in the app store for apps using our Vlogger framework.   The new updates carry the following versions:

  • Unofficial iJustine 1.6
  • Unofficial SDTV 1.4
  • Unofficial PhillyD 1.4
  • Unofficial AnnoyingOrange 1.2
  • Unofficial ShayTards 1.1

There is no new functionality in these releases, however, we are recommending that everyone update to these new versions.  In these latest versions, we have slightly optimized the session-resume procedure for those who have saved their YouTube credentials, and we have fixed two small (and rare) issues with the login process that cause our framework to misbehave.

Please update to these latest versions to ensure you’re up to date with our newest code!  Also, you can check the version of the app(s) running on your device at any time by looking at the “About” screen (usually on the “More” tab).  The applciation name and version are shown there.  Compare that with the versions that are seen in the “More Apps” screen – which always reflects our latest versions, to determine if you are up to date.

Thanks for using our products!

Updated apps are coming…

Wednesday, March 17th, 2010

We’ve updated our popular Unofficial iJustine, Unofficial PhillyD, Unofficial AnnoyingOrange, and Unofficial ShaneDawson apps and have submitted those updates for release to the app store.

These exciting new updates use the latest version of our app framework, which adds support to watch, rate, and comment on viewer responses to any of the videos in the app.   You can even subscribe to the channels of those who have posted responses that you like.

This new feature continues on the path of filling out our framework.  This weekend, we are hoping to finish the final details of our Twitter integration so that you can actually respond to messages from your favorite blogger right through the app.  Additionally, support will be added to all “Share” functionality to allow you to share your favorite videos, blog entries, and any other content directly via Twitter.

We hope that you are enjoying the apps and look forward to the continued growth of our product(s) and our fan base.

GeekUtils gets a mention from Phil DeFranco!

Wednesday, March 17th, 2010

Yesterday, I was shocked, amazed, and grateful that Phil DeFranco gave my Unofficial PhillyD app a shout on Twitter.   To all of you who followed his advice and downloaded my app – thank you – and welcome to the club ;).

We gathered just over a thousand new downloads yesterday, and the app has risen from obscurity to #68 in the social networking category of the app store.  Keep the downloads coming, spread the word, and continue to support the DeFranco nation!

As always, if you have any questions, feature suggestions, bug reports, or just want to say Hi – please use the “Contact” Button on the about tab inside the app.  Remember, this contact e-mail comes to the developer, for contacting Phil – try twitter (@phillyd) or one of his public e-mail addresses.

Again – thank you!
