News » tiny GReader upcomming v1.5
As version 1.4 was successfully published to the Marketplace the new version 1.5 is already in development. 1.5 will introduce a new offline feature for edit requests.
Edit requests are callbacks to the google reader server to mark your items as read or starred or liked and requests to add your comments etc.
Until and including the current release, if your network connection dropped (e.g. in the underground) these requests just failed and where ignored. That is rather annoying. In evrsion 1.5 these requests are cached in an internal database and when your connection comes back online and you are authenticated everything you did is synchronized with the google reader service.
Another outstanding new feature is the reading ov very (really very) big posts. Most rss entries (posts) are rather short. But if you encounter some really big once, it might happen, that a certain part of the post is just no more visible. A quick workaround was to view the online version by tabbing the title and open the embedded webbrowser - but in v1.5 this should no more happen due to improved parsing algorithms.
There are some minor performance improvements as well as in every version plus some bugfixes.
Stay tuned - 1.5 is not far away!
