We’ve released updates to Pixelpipe Pro & Lite applications to the Android Market with a number of new features and optimizations.
The big new feature is that we’ve added the ability to include geo-location along with status/micro-blog updates & blog updates to over 30 services, we’ve been doing this for sometime with post with photos however have introduced the feature for text only updates as well.
The Geo-Status feature works by enabling the “Geo On” button when posting to Pixelpipe. We’ll then include a link to a pi.pe page with a Google map for services that don’t yet support geo updates like Facebook & Blogger. For services like Friendfeed (& Twitter soon) that do support geo-tagging we will pass the coordinates to the services via APIs which will display a map along side the post. This feature is initially exposed on our new Android clients however will be rolled out to our integrations with Nokia and iPhone soon.
New features:
- Ability to include geo-location along with status/micro-blog updates, blog posts and even e-mails.
- You can now select your destinations on a per image, video or audio file basis. This is available from the Pixelpipe app by choosing “Upload to..” and from the “Share” menu found in the Gallery, Camera and most 3rd party applications
- Sign-up & Sign-in both are executed with-in the application. This provides better performance and a cleaner sign-up/sign-in flow.
