I hit the release button for an update yesterday (version 2.1.1) but it seems that the App Store has taken offense to that. You probably see that an update is available, but if it says that it’s version 2.1.0 then it’s mistaken. I’ve contacted Apple and am trying to get this resolved so that the correct version is finally available. Stay tuned!
Update: Seems all is now good. I just saw the correct version (2.1.1) in the App Store so it should be fine to update now.
The Pro Mode purchase problem seems to have cleared itself up. Please let me know if you are still having problems purchasing!
Also, I discovered a problem with the landing page search. The page links on the bottom were being mistaken for a phone number. I put a fix on the site so it shouldn’t do that anymore.
Try saying that 10 times fast. As I’m working on the next update for Secret Browser, I’m noticing some problems with the Pro Mode purchase. It’s looking like these problems are on Apple’s end and I’m in the process of researching what the problem is. I’ll report back with some more information as soon as I hear.
If you are having problems purchasing Pro Mode. For the time being, I’ve noticed restarting Secret Browser and trying again a few times sometimes clears up the problem. Make sure you quit from the multitasker tray.
It took a bit longer than Apple’s usual 7 days, but version 2.0.2 is now up and available on the App Store. This is a maintenance release and (hopefully) fixes the rest of the problems with purchasing Pro Mode, as well as puts the forward button back on the iPad and removes the annoying problem with the “Review Me!” box that caused it to pop up over and over and over again.
Next update will be a bit bigger with a couple of new features and fixes! Looking forward to finishing it soon!
As with any complete rewrite, a couple of bugs got overlooked and slipped by in Secret Browser 2.0.0. I addressed the biggest one with a 2.0.1 version that prevented anyone from purchasing Pro Mode. Now version 2.0.2 has been submitted and will take care of a couple more annoying issues like a “Please Review Me” alert that could pop up over and over and over again and a missing forward button on the iPad.
Apple has to approve the update so I hope to see the update go live in about a week or so.
A quick note about Pro Mode. If you are having a problem with your purchase, you may have to just try and purchase it again. If you tried to buy Pro Mode in version 2.0.0, the purchase more than likely never went through and Secret Browser simply tried to restore a previous purchase instead. Because of the way Pro Mode is set up with Apple, it is a non-consumable purchase. This means that it’s impossible to buy Pro Mode twice. So if you try and purchase it again, you will either be charged for it because you never got charged the first time or you will not get charged again and it will simply unlock Pro Mode. Sorry for this slight inconvenience.
