Submission Failed? Excuse to update to v3.5!
I just got the email from Microsoft that V3 of DashBuddy failed certification. This is because in the new code I’m using there’s no difference between the app going wrong and Tumblr having one of its “moments” - this is an automatic fail as it looks like the app is wrong straight out of the box, which it wasn’t.
This has been fixed and I’ve just submitted the...
DashBuddy V4: Initial List
I know, I know - I haven’t gotten V3 approved yet - but there’s still a lot more to do.
Here’s my initial list for V4, which should take a lot less time to implement now I’ve re-written my codebase.

DashBuddy V3: Submitted to Marketplace
It’s been a long time coming. I just submitted V3 for certification.

Ability to view all photos in a photo set.
Able to pin your favourite bloggers straight to your start screen (click on their name and there’s a “pin” option from there)

V3: Slight UI Change
I’ve made an alteration to the DashBuddy Icons (not prettier I’m afraid, still a dev at heart!).
Picture 1: I’ve lost the background heart from the image so the pinned icon is quite clean.
Picture 2: With notifications turned on, you not only get a little toast message appear - the icon changes to this so that you can tell when there are new posts even if you miss the notification.
DashBuddy V3 - BugHunting Phase
As I said in my last post, I managed to get the old photo upload working in the new architecture this weekend - thank goodness!
I’ve deployed to my own device and I’m now working on finding and fixing bugs for this version - I normally give this phase a week, so I’m looking at working on them until about Friday. Then the plan is to submit the new app in the marketplace over the...
