Birdfeed 1.0.1 Approved

We weren’t sure what to expect for our first update, but once again, the App Store approval process has moved along efficiently and uneventfully in approving Birdfeed 1.0.1. Thanks Apple!

This update is very small, and has only three changes:

  • A fix for the dreaded 1.0 “Account Amnesia” issue.
  • A fix for the missing “@” before the username on a retweet.
  • The addition of the “Via @username:”-style as an option for retweeting.

1.0.1 should appear in your App Store updates imminently.
