New Server; New Application Features

Posted on Friday, April 09, 2010 by Ian Drake

If you're seeing this blog post, you're seeing NotifyWire running on it's new server.  The NotifyWire application has been update with several fixes and new features.  Here's a brief outline:

  • Added new Alert tab to display and manage your alerts right from the app
  • Added a new Settings tab to add/remove contact info, select an email provider for replying to ads, and undeleting your deleted ads
  • Fixed a bug when adding a new contact
  • Changed how paging is done because it was buggy on some computers.  You can no longer hold the left mouse button down to continuiously scroll through pages.  Instead you have to click for each page.
  • Various small bug fixes

One big change that has to do with the website.  I've removed the online functionality to view your alerts and saved ads.  Note, you can still view individual alerts using the alert code sent to you via SMS and email, but that's it.  

Why did I remove a feature?  Well, for one, no one was using it.  Secondly, it was confusing a lot of people including a PHD who insisted that, if he can't figure it out, then I'm doing it wrong. ;)  Now that you can fully manage your alerts through the NotifyWire app, there's really no reason to keep the same functionality on the website.

While I'm really excited about the new version, I realize that there may be a few bumps with the new server and software version.  Please report any problems you notice to Support@NotifyWire.com.
