Brandsonic Apps blog

It has been well over a year since I last updated Brandsonic Web mobile for iOS, the most successful version of Brandsonic Web. Now that iOS 7 is out and its been jailbroken for quite some time, it's overdue for an iOS 7 update. I'm working on the iOS 7 version and I hope to have it released by the end of the March. I ran into problems that prevented me from releasing it several months ago. It will maintain it's iOS 4.3 to iOS 7 compatibly. It won't be a 64-bit app, because I would have to sacrifice alot of the compatibly with older iOS versions to make it 64-bit. I don't think it would really change anything anyway. I have alot planned for iOS 7, but most of them will come in the next version after the first iOS 7 update. For now, use 0.9.4 as it works on iOS 7 to my knowledge. It still looks like an iOS 6 app, but it's better than nothing.

Brandsonic Web for Windows Alpha 4 (0.4 or 0.0.0.4) has just been submitted to download.com. Please note this is not the new Brandsonic Web for Windows with the new interface. Below is the changelog: Changelog: Interface improvements Better optimization for smaller screens and lower screen resolutions Improved progress bar Keyboard shortcuts for open, new window, print and Quick Sites Update: This version is now available. Download from here .

I am proud to announce that that Brandsonic Web mobile for iOS has been downloaded a mind boggling 10,000 times. In just 3 years, 2 months and 9 days. This is Brandsonic Web's first major milestone. I am absolutely thrilled. Thanks so much everyone whose downloaded Brandsonic Web and who has supported it. I am extremely grateful to all of my users.

I will be unable to test Brandsonic Web mobile for iOS on an actual iOS 7 or later device because I only have an iPod Touch 4th generation. However, I will still be able to test it on the iOS Simulator, but this is never as good as testing on an actual device. I am planning a new interface for iOS 7, but I probably won't release the update until there is at least a tethered jailbreak for iOS 7. I will maintain compatibly with iOS 6.1 to iOS 4.3 for as long as I can.

You may have seen my tweet or Facebook page post about the new Brandsonic Web for Windows. Unfortunately, I am forced to delay it's release due to a problem. It won't run on other computers. This is a big problem, and I don't know what's causing it. I will try to fix this problem and get the new version released ASAP. I apologize and will get the new version out as soon as I can.

I am proud to announce that I have FINALLY fixed the current URL and title bug that has plagued every version of Brandsonic Web for Mac since it's release. Brandsonic Web for Mac Alpha 8 (0.8) will finally properly display the URL of current url and title of the web page. I am thrilled that I have finally tracked down the issue and was able to fix it. I plan to release this version sometime this week. I recommend that every user of Brandsonic Web for Mac update to this version when it's available. It is the biggest release of Brandsonic Web for Mac yet.

It's been awhile since I have updated any of the versions of Brandsonic Web. Usually during the summer, I release alot of updates. I have mostly been using this summer to work on my programming skills instead of directly working on Brandsonic Web. The knowledge gained will help me make Brandsonic Web better. I will try to release an update for all versions by the end of August.
