Headlines is a new version of the existing Kanavat service that was successfully piloted in Finland in late 2005. This new international service provides significant improvements to the user interface, makes the content catalogue global, and also adds an advertising dimension - so that you can enjoy the service for FREE.
Changelog:
NEW FEATURES
1. New name and icon: Headlines
2. If the battery level drops below 14%, the intelligent content background updater stops automatically.
3. After reboot background updater starts automatically.
4. Publication content packages are stored to memory card when available.
5. Possibility to offer “preinstalled” publications.
6. Add content item added to Option menu in My content view.
7. Possibility to fetch advertisements from publisher’s own Ad serving platform.
KEY FIXES
1. Memory leakage fixed when browsing back and forth on headline tabs.
2. Memory full notification fixed.
3. Minor UI fixes in All content and My content views.
In the coming weeks, new features and new publications will be added to the service. Looking forward to provide you more publications – we got a Comics channel coming – and yet a better experience!
