TapTapTap’s Camera+ App for iOS ($0.99, App Store Link), the popular camera app that was once banned from the App Store, has just received an update, bringing performance and stability enhancements, as well as a new SMS sharing feature. It’s also on sale for a buck to celebrate its anniversary!
TapTapTap has made a statement on their blog explaining the new SMS Sharing feature:
One of the major features that was slated for version 2.3, but we left it in here in 2.2.1 is SMS sharing. Note that we’re sharing photos via SMS and not MMS and the way that we’re doing this is to upload your photos to our server and then setup an SMS text message with a relatively secure URL for your photos.
This isn’t a perfect solution by any means, but our hands are tied because Apple doesn’t currently provide 3rd-party developers with a way to create MMS messages with attachments, unfortunately. Apple’s own apps are free to do this, though. Hopefully they’ll level the playing field someday.
They’ve also announced an upcoming version 2.3 of their app, which they call a “pretty major update”, and say will bring many new features and “make a lot of you very happy for a few reasons.”
Most importantly, though, Camera+ has officially been released for one year, and TapTapTap decided to celebrate by reducing the price to a buck – although they warn it will only be so inexpensive for a very short time, so jump on it ($0.99, App Store Link)!
