PeekaWho Email Alerts – New Beta Version 1.161

The guys at BBCool spotted the fact that the popular PeekaWho email application has been updated with a new beta. PeekaWho is a very useful email alerts application that gives you a popup for incoming email and SMS.

This new version 1.161 is a bit of a version bump over the previously mentioned 1.159. The current official version is 1.160 which can be found in the store along with its change log. There is a 7 day trial with the beta after which you can pick up the app in the store for $6.95.

Known Issue:
