Please try again, I just received approval from AppStore for new version! How Exciting... Try perhaps uninstall and reinstall to see if anything changes... Restart might fix the issue...

Here are a few things that you can try that sometimes can help get the connection to the App Store working again.

Go to Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>Off. Set the date one year ahead. Try to download or update the apps again. If you get an error message, go back to the settings. Correct the date and time (set automatically) then go back and try to download or update the apps again.

Or .... Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Or .... Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.

Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try again.
Source

Please try the following steps to fix your problem. After each step, check whether you are still having this problem.

Simply double tap the icon of the app that you are unable to download and wait for a few seconds. Your download should resume.
Tap Settings > General > Date and Time > Set Automatically > and slide to turn off “Set Automatically”. Manually set the date one year ahead. Now try to re-download the apps. If you get an error message, go back to turn on “Set Automatically” then try to download the apps again.
Restart your iOS device. Simply press and hold the on/off (sleep/wake) button until you see the red slider and slide the slider to turn your device off. To turn back on, press and hold the on/off button until the Apple logo appears.
Settings > iTunes & App Store > Your Apple ID > Sign Out. Restart your device, then Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try again.
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and then on again.
Reset Network Settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings, and then your iDevice will restart. Note that will reset all network settings including your Wi-Fi passwords.
Reset your device by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button and the Home button together until you see the Apple logo.

Excellent work, not even the main Steemit client has profile pictures or native bookmarking yet. You're well ahead of the curve

Some great improvements in this version! Notifications are probably the single most useful feature and what will keep me using this app over the web site. And I'm excited to see that one of my suggestions (bookmarking) made it in. Keep up the amazing work!

I think if you have already downloaded v1.0.0, whenever new version is available you should be notified by AppStore about update. I am hoping it won't take long, as I am testing push notifications on iOS to push next update.

I can't comment to different posts.
I used the Android version (on a Samsung S4) and the iOS one (on IPhone 4S).

Is this feature ready ?

Thank you.

Android has ability to comment and make new posts. iOS version 1.1.5 was sent out for review and should be available soon after review is done by Apple, current iOS version 1.0.0 doesn't have ability to comment.

Will download and start using it! Please let me know if anybody need people to help test steemit apps. This can be a service that users can help be testting and giving feedback to developers. Currently working on something in this areas.

Of course testing and getting user feedback is crucial and hope users using app and continue to give feedback on what can be improved...

Hi @good-karma, first of all, I just wanted to say a huge thank you for all the work you've put into developing this app. I am a heavy user of my mobile phone, and pretty much do most of my activities on Steemit through mobile.
Can I please request you look into the following for future app updates? I am vision impaired and use a feature called VoiceOver (a screen reader) on iPhone to navigate content. It would be really appreciated if you could improve the accessibility and labeling of the app so that it works better with VoiceOver. This would mean a world of difference for me, as currently many of the buttons are not labelled, and is not very accessible for the vision impaired. Here's a website you may be able to find more info about apps for the vision impaired, or otherwise Apple should have some good resources too. http://www.applevis.com/

Thanks for reading and listening

Jimmy

Thank you Jimmy for stopping by and giving feedback! I will review and see what are the requirements for app to become fully accessible to you! Expect some notes and updates on this, in my future posts.

Can you also please add FEED notifications?
Still can't login with posting privatekey.

$0.00

[-]

good-karma (76) · 8 years ago

Notifications will be improved yes.
There is some occasions where app needs active or owner private key. And easier and convenient way for ordinary non-crypto user is to just use one password. App allows one to transfer fund and follow/unfollow, update account profile picture and many more features to come and I think keeping it simple with asking one password looks more feasible right now. I would like to know your opinion about it though, What are your thoughts? Password is always kept locally and it never sent to any third party servers. Transactions are created locally and signed locally and then broadcasted.

I can't give you my opinion since I can't login.
I'm a crypto guy (geek) I have mined my account.
I have never registered here on Steemit.com.
From the web interface I use my username and posting private key to login.
This doesn't happen from your app. Can't login.
