In this release I have added support for Android firmware 2.1.

A knock on effect for doing this means firmware 2.2 users cannot move the app to SD. Once the share of firmware 2.2 users increases I will add the ability to do this again.

This release contains a bug fix whereby if you haven’t entered your credentials prior to long pressing the Tag entry field it would force close.

I hope to do away with the need to enter credentials in a future release. I’m just wanting to make sure that the small bugs are out the way so that I can concentrate on putting in new features.

A couple of bug fixes in this version to do with the new fetch tags method I am using.

In the interim I’ve noticed another bug which I will fix tonight.

Have a good day.

In this release;

• Fixed the force close that would occasionally happen during feed finding.
• Optimised the feed finding method.
• Feed title now visible in the main Subscriber window when one is retrieved from a feed.

Next release will *hopefully* have the new  recommended Google authentication method implemented. This will do away with the need for  users to enter their Google Username and Password.

Please remember to leave comments and a rating if you are finding this application useful!

Have a good weekend.

Amongst other items under development, my main piece of work at the moment is getting Subscriber to use the built-in Google account on the phone. This is a better approach than getting the user to enter credentials into a Preference screen.

It also means less code which = smaller application.

There is also a bug in the current application that I’m working on and hope to get that fixed in the next release.

I hope those that have downloaded this application are getting on with it OK. Please feel free to comment on the blog…

I have just released Subscriber for FREE on the Android Market.

Have a good day.

In this release I have done some major reworking of the code and support firmwares prior to 2.2 (Froyo).

Version 1.2:

• Added support for firmwares prior to 2.2 (Froyo), Subscriber now supports firmwares 1.6 – 2.2.
• Removed a huge chunk of code to reduce the overall application size

I plan to work on further developing the feed finding capability to include mobile sites. Concurrently I will be implementing further functionality for managing Google Reader Tags and Subscriptions.

I would like to take this opportunity to show my appreciation to Jonathan Hedley and his excellent Java HTML Parser, JSoup.

Just a quick post to say I have been working hard to get Subscriber to support older firmwares.

Releasing tonight.

New in this release;

1. Greatly reduced package size, due to an overhaul of the code to make it more efficient
2. The speed and reliability of finding feeds has been greatly improved.
