Kuwait Blogs Top Free iPhone App

A reader emailed me to tell me that he spotted the Kuwait Blogs app ranked as #1 today in the top free app list in the Kuwait iTunes store. So I checked it from my iPhone and there it was right at the top. I thought that was pretty cool specially with strong competition like the newly released Marina FM app.

Some of you have also emailed me regarding a bug in the app when checking the Some Contrast blog, it crashes the app. It seems there is a post on the Some Contrast blog that is causing the crash so its just a temporary issue that should get solved once his post leaves his RSS feed. Other than that a few of you mentioned that fact that some images aren’t loading. The reason for that I am guessing is that you’re on a 3G or Edge connection and the blog you’re checking hasn’t resized or compressed their picture properly so the app is taking time downloading the image to display it. Again there is very little I can do about that since the app will just load whatever image the blogger has on his blog no matter the size.

Finally, I should be updating the app sometime next week with a couple of new blogs and a few minor graphical glitches which I will be fixing. Will post another update once I do. If you haven’t already downloaded the app here is the [Link]

Update: The SomeContrast bug is now fixed since the post causing the crash has left his RSS feed.
