Combined updates
Firstly we would like to apology to our Premium users. It has been a long month without actual update
We have been pushing out updates consistently to the Apple App Store, however, due to some unknown reasons the Lite version always got approved first, while the Paid version is no where to be seen.
After contacting Apple several times, we still could not get any good answer except the standard "we will email you when it is approved" kind of response (duhhh!)
So in the mean time, please try out our Free version to experience the revamped Hello. App!
Please do spend some time to read more about these issues here

1.3.1 is shipped!
It took a lot faster than we expected for this version. The changes includes:
• Full screen photo browsing mode and new Save to Gallery feature
• Faster switching between pages, no more black screen
• Bug fix for notification + comment popups, now they work as should have been
• Color fix for dark themes, text are more visible
With this update coming so much earlier than we planned, moreover, we are experimenting on a lot of big changes so the next update is probably going to take awhile.
In the mean time, we welcome any suggestion and feedback via email. And don't forget to give us a favorable rating on the App Store.

Version 1.3.0 has been released
It has been more than a week since we last updated this. We have been very busy experimenting with some big changes behind the scene.
Facebook did change some structure of its data again. If you have noticed, similar apps like Hello. have been affected by these and most of them do not work well anymore.
However, Hello. was only slightly affected because we do things very differently to ensure much better experience for our users.
On top of that we have been shipping out updates extremely fast, almost every week to enhance and correct bugs before you even notice them.
So together with this new version, we have submitted the next update for review (Yes, again!) and we have a surprise in this update for you!

Exciting new updates
We have completely revamped the Check-in feature in our new version and it had been well-received by our private testers. You can attach photo and tag multiple friends in the same place. (Sneak screenshot in Gallery)
On top of that we have implemented one of the most requested feature : (re)share video and links and it is also in the update.
The videos has been changed quite a bit by Facebook and we have also reworked that to make the experience much better.
So, because of these new exciting additions ahead of schedule, we have decided to skip 1.2.2 currently waiting for approval. We took it down and submit the next update including all of above features as 1.2.3 instead
Stay tuned!
