Mabilo Ringtones on Android

Wednesday, September 9th, 2009

Many of you downloaded our android application couple days ago. We had overwhelming response which crashed the servers and made everything very very slow. Well, since then we worked very hard on improving speed and upgrading our hardware. We also added some cool fetures to the app itself. Here are the changes from 3.0 to the current 3.0.2 version:

  1. Improved application and download speed 300%
  2. Downloading in background. You can browse the app while it downloads ringtones to your account.
  3. Downloaded ringtones are now playing directly from your sdcard (big speed improvement).
  4. Streaming ringtones can now be canceled (by pressing back button) to prevent forceclosing if streaming timesout.
  5. You can now delete ringtones from your account (and sdcard) by longpressing on ringtone row in your account.

Also some UI improvements:

  1. Added icons to tabs in category view
  2. Changed home page icons for a cleaner look

With that said, enjoy the new, improved application, and your feedback is always appreciated.

Just minutes ago we served 6,000,000 downloads from 20,000 users with a database of 20,000 uploaded ringtones. Due to mass amounts of traffic, we will be expanding our servers and are expected to grow more rapidly.

Thank you for all your support!
