Issues with HKWarnings v2.0

I’m noticing a number of crashes on the iPad version related to low memory, and crashes on both the iPad/iPhone to do with HTTP requests.

I submitted a new version to Apple yesterday that hopefully addresses these issues, but I am continuing to investigate.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

HKWarnings v2.0 – Now For iPad

After months of work, HKWarnings v2.0 is now a Universal iPhone/iPod/iPad app and is now ready for download.

The iPad version shows the warnings, plus current weather, radar and satellite images and has links to other weather agency typhoon tracks. Click on the “Menu” button. And maybe on the “heart” icon?

IMPORTANT NOTE: HKWarnings now only runs on devices running iOS 5.0 or greater. If you are running iOS 4.x, iTunes will not let you upgrade, but if you have, for example, two devices, one running 5.0+ and one running 4.x, if you upgrade on the 5.0+ device, when you next sync your 4.x device, HKWarnings will be removed from the 4.x device. This is an iTunes ‘feature’ I’m afraid.
