Hipstamatic updates both Oggl and Oggl Pro, improves sharing and more

Hipstamatic'due south Oggl and Oggl Pro accept been highly anticipated apps since their declaration in May. All the same, when they launched a calendar month agone both apps received mixed reviews. You wanted to love them and utilise them, but performance issues hampered that desire. Since and so both apps take been receiving adequately regular updates to address the shortcomings. Let'due south see what's new in the latest update for both Oggl and Oggl Pro.

Head to the Store and you'll see the apps sitting at version 1.0.8.106. What do yous get after installing or updating?

Further fixes for user specific content handling
New improved registration & log in period
Improved settings handling for social channels
Progress indicator in library for when images are candy.
Improved backstack menstruation for sharing.

The terminal update that came out about a week ago improved the start up speed of the app. This latest update makes taking pictures itself experience faster. When you snap a picture the image is added to your library. If you become to your image library before the app has had time to process the image (add filters) it will now show a absurd progress indicator/blitheness letting you know the pic is processing. It's a small touch, but overnice overall. Nosotros as well logged ourselves out of the app to check out the improved regristration and log in flow. Nosotros couldn't exactly remember how it was before, but didn't have whatever issues putting our account info in and accessing Oggl.

We really want to see this app take off. Hopefully with continued support and updates information technology will get in that location sooner than later. And technically, this app is the only official way to get photos to Instagram if yous think most information technology. Keep them updates coming Hipstamatic.

Both apps are free for Windows Phone users and include a 60 twenty-four hours trial of all the "gear". Yous can catch Oggl for all Windows Phone 8 devices in the Store. Oggl Pro is only available for folks with a Nokia Lumia 1020, go information technology in the Store. Otherwise QR codes below or swipe to the right in our app.
