Yatca 1.4.2 Fixes Bugs

Yatca is a Twitter client application for BlackBerry devices running OS 4.6+ or later, it delivers updates and replies directly to the BlackBerry’s inbox so you can tweet and reply in much the same way that you work with email and SMS. We mentioned it one month ago. Version 1.4.2 was released three days ago and fixes the following bugs:

  • Some people reported that tweets were disappearing from the message list, or that they were being notified of new tweets that they couldn’t see. It turns out that Yatca was being a bit over-zealous with its housekeeping in certain circumstances! Problem now fixed.
  • Image upload was running into a 50 KB size limit and anything larger than that was timing out on upload (another popular Twitter client for BlackBerry has the exact same problem!). This new version of Yatca tries progressively higher compression rates until the image is less than 50 KB.
  • When a BlackBerry is connected to a computer and in mass storage mode, third party apps such as Yatca cannot access files in the device memory or SD card. This was causing Yatca to display a cryptic error message when opening the image gallery. A more meaningful message is now displayed.
  • Twitter has an unconventional way of handling the ‘<’ and ‘>’ characters that Yatca was not taking account of. This is now fixed (and thanks William for pointing it out!).

No new features at this time, just a service release. If you have been experiencing one of those bugs, it’s fixed, so run for your copy.

    Yatca is a’ight but I think Twitterberry is better. Allows you to do more and keeps all your twitter stuff in one neat place.
