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....

Using your Google account on Blogaway

The current version of Blogaway doesn't yet support using the Account Manager on Android to setup your blogs. From the feedback that we have received, this is not really a good idea. Users obviously don't want to provide their Google credentials to a third-party app, which is a good thing.

To solve this problem with Blogaway, soon, we would be releasing a version that changes how Blogaway works. And we hope that would remove all doubts about how Blogaway uses or stores your Google credentials.

From the next update, you would be able to setup your blog by using one of the two options.

Adding your blog

1. Using a Google account: This is the preferred way to setup an account on Blogaway. By choosing this, Blogaway doesn't get to know your password for your Google account.
2. Manual Setup: There might be a few situations where people still might want to add an account manually by providing their Google credentials within the app. Although the information you provide is safe, and Blogaway in no way trasmits/uses any of your credentials in a way that poses privacy issues, you should still be careful about lending your devices or, when you misplace them.

That's one thing that we would be changing.

Some of the other changes that would be a part of the next big update are:

• Multiple image support
• Multiple videos support
• Bookmarking posts that you would like to read later
• Proper geo-tagging of posts
• A better post reader

Blogaway Update v4.6 released

A new version of Blogaway is now available on the Market. We have basically added two features:

1. Apps 2 SD
2. Support for multiple screen sizes

However, the artworks and the layouts haven't been adjusted yet. Please update or install the latest release to take advantage of these features. We would be updating the app soon to give better experience for multiple size screens, for tablets too. :)

Blogaway Update v4.3

Hey Guys,

Blogaway has a new update. This is a major update. So, I would request you all to install this update which will fix quite a few issues, and also you will get some new features.

1. Share links with Blogaway
2. Fixed Force closes while uploading large sized images.
3.  Issue 38 : adding functionality for embedding youtube clip
4. Images uploaded through Blogaway now have links to the actual image

Android 2.2 has been released. Pretty soon, we will also see what new features we can add to Blogaway. Of course, till we get the 2.2 devices out in the market, we have to wait.

Blogaway v4.1

With this update, you can add signatures to your posts.

1. Go to Settings screen.
2. Check the "Signature" option.
3. Enter a custom signature that you wish to be appended with your posts.

Currently, you can only enter signatures as simple text. We will be working on this feature and extend this so that you can put links in you signature.

If you enable signatures, the signature will be appended to each blog that you post from Blogaway. You cannot selectively set/enable signatures for a particular blog.

Do send us your comment, feedback and issues so that we can make "Blogaway", a better blogger client for Android.
