New Update to Blogaway and Blogaway Pro

That was a long gap I think. But, we have added quite some new features, which needed extensive testing.

There has been a bunch of bug fixes which were pending for a long time and were very irritating. The most important one was:

You couldn't write a post with accentuated characters in the title or in the labels fields. This was a problem for the non-english characters, where users then had to go and manually change them later on the web. Although, the post content was able to handle these characters properly, it must have been very frustrating for the users to do that each time they hit publish. Now, that's fixed.

And the feature list is quite a handful this time.

Features:

• Navigate to post from Posts map
• Show blog stats
• Accentuated characters were not being displayed in Title and Tags
• Revert published/scheduled posts to draft
• Publishing a draft post
• Scheduling a post
• Deleting posts
• Viewing and editing "Drafts" and "Scheduled" posts

And various bug fixes

Blog Stats (Page Views)

Here's a screenshot for the Stats page. Hope you would like it.

There could be a few odd behaviors as always, because of the substantial upgrade of features and code-base, as usual. So, if you find a bug, or if you want any help, do write to us, and we would be more than happy to help you.




Blogaway Pro: The introductory price still is at $1.49 for some more time. Grab your copy till it's that cheap. May be for a week more or two.

And, as always, we aren't resting yet. We are already busy adding new features, and polishing up the existing ones. Don't forget to rate us on the Play Store.

Till the next update, Happy Blogging.

Introducing Blogaway Pro and Posts Map

Finally, a pro version of Blogaway for Android is out. Needless to say, it's ad-free. For the initial release, Blogaway Pro for Android is on a sale for the first 2 weeks. Download it for the introductory price of only USD 1.49.

Introducing the Posts Map

You have been blogging from various parts of your city, or may be the world. And after hundreds of posts, you have lost track of your old memories. To re-live those moments, go into the "Posts Map".

Posts Map shows all your posts on a map. You can zoom in or out to view all your post scattered throughout the world. Isn't it nice to see from where you have been blogging all this time?

The post map also shows posts from your reading list. Although this is not yet ready fully, we thought it would be a teaser to the next update.

Blogaway Free users can also see the Posts Map now, but all the subsequent updates to this feature would only be available on Blogaway Pro.

We would still be supporting Blogaway Free users in terms of bug fixes, crashes and minor improvements, but Blogaway Pro is the new tool that aims to make your blogging experience from your Android phones better and fun.

If you really want these awesome updates, do get the Blogaway Pro while it is one SALE. And that's only for the next 2 weeks.

Happy Blogging. Blogaway....

Blogaway 5.5 Released

Hope you had a good time blogging away with your Android phones.

Recently, we came across an issue from the comments section. The users on Galaxy S4 weren't able to view the content section of their posts while composing. This was a bug in Blogaway, which should now be fixed.

We have fixed this problem, and the new release is available on the Play store.

Please let us know if there are problems with Blogaway. Also, you could tell us what you want to change in Blogaway. It could be a new feature altogether, or improvements to the existing features.

A full tablet version of the app is due for a long time. We are working on that. But, it would take some more time to get there. Till then, happy blogging.

Blogaway 5.3 available on the Play store

Blogaway for Android 5.3 is a minor update with a few bug fixes. We have fixed a few crashes, which could have probably frustrated you a bit a few times.

Release notes:

1. Now supports browser based OAuth2
2. Composing a post is now supported in any orientation. This is a step forward towards full-tablet support.
3. We are working on full tablet support. But thought to first fix it for the compose screen. It might take a few weeks more for reaching there.

Blogaway 5.2 - Minor update

This is a minor update for Blogaway for Android.

What's new in this update?

1. Fixed a few crashes while working with posts and drafts
2. Special characters or posts/blogs in languages other than english should not appear correctly. The post/blog titles and the contents should now render correctly.
3. Editing your existing blog posts is now enabled.
4. Blogaway uses Google analytics to track app usage. In the settings, you could also disable this and opt-out of Google Analytics.
5. Now you can add a caption to your images and videos.
6. Commenting is now enabled if you have a manually setup account. While commenting, only such accounts would be visible to use for commenting on posts.

Let us know your feedback and feature requests that you would like to see in the future versions. Till then, Happy Blogging.

Adding a caption to your images

Your caption goes here.

When you add images, most of the times you would want to describe a little more about the image itself. That's where adding a caption helps you. This would work for images as well as videos. After you add an image/video, tap on the media in the compose screen.

The dialog which let's you specify the size and the alignment, now has a caption field as well.

This little feature would be a part of the next update.

Do let us know what more features you would like us to roll out.

Blogaway 5.1 is now on Google Play Store

Blogaway 5.1 is a substantial update. Please check it out and send in your feedback. But, before upgrading, there's just one word of caution.

This is a completely re-written codebase, and thus, this update will not use the old data that you have with the existing version. You will need to setup your accounts and reading lists again.

Also, all your drafts, if any would not be imported into the new drafts system. If you want to preserve your drafts, please publish them, or save them as online drafts, and then proceed with the update.

Migration old the old data was a lot of work. And I don't really think it's worth. If and only if you have a lot of phone drafts, it's a real problem for the users. But other than the drafts, setting up everything else shouldn't take much time.

We hope you will love the new UI and everything else that will follow. If not, do send in your problems and concerns, and we would try our best to sort it out.
