Yummy 2.6.1

Just a few days behind its free counterpart, Yummy 2.6.1 has now been approved by Apple and is available for download in the App Store. The only visible change is to the Twitter text entry screen, where I’ve tweaked the UI a little to make it easier to cut and paste text. Otherwise it’s just fixes. I have closed all known crashing bugs introduced in the 2.6.0 release (two accounted for around 90% of all crashes).

One bug was that when you pressed the Home button when the “Welcome” screen was visible, Yummy would crash. Obviously I’ve fixed the crash, however I just wanted to point out that there’s not really much point in pressed the Home button while on that screen. Yummy does not currently download your bookmarks in the background and by exiting half way through downloading your bookmarks you are just increasing your chances of being “throttled” by Yahoo! You may have seen the “Delicious says you’re refreshing too quickly” error, or the more cryptic “Error 999.” That’s what being throttled looks like from inside Yummy.
