Iterate Fast and Release Often

“Iterate fast and release often” is a philosophy of software development that we embrace whole heartedly here. You may have noticed a lot of updates to Reverse Lookup the past few days, and with these updates, some genuinely funky results(but also some very good ones, we feel!).

We wanted to apologize for the issues and ensure everyone that we are tweaking to make our results as good as possible, so expect to see a few more updates this week including one today, to v3.1.5.

This version is already published to the Play Store and we highly recommend that you grab it as soon as it becomes available to you. The same update will hit for paid users later on tonight.

As always, thank you for using Reverse Lookup and please let us know if you encounter any issues.

Reverse Lookup 3.1.1 has been published

The update we tipped you off to the other day has been published. The new version is 3.1.1 and features a fix for the issue some users have experienced where most searches did not return results even though they should have.

It also introduces some cell phone data in search results. This is still experimental and may be limited in scope so please bear with us. Cell phone data is generally not publicly available but we are always working to provide as much data on these numbers as possible without violating our users’ privacy.

The update has been published as of this posting and will be available in the Play Store within a few hours.

Thanks as always,- and as always, let us know if you experience any issues.

Reverse Lookup 3.0 is live! (and more!)

If you have automatic updates turned on, you’ve probably already received it, but we just wanted to let everyone know that Reverse Lookup 3.0 is now officially available on Google Play (coming soon on Amazon).

Reverse Lookup Free:

Google Play

Reverse Lookup PLUS:

Google Play

In this version, you’ll find lots of material design elements, a few bug fixes, and a refined and rethought user experience. As usual, if you have any issues, please shoot us an email and let us know.

We’re not done yet, though – in the next version of Reverse Lookup, we’ll implement themes for those of you who prefer a lighter look. Paid users will also receive some alternate color choices in case you don’t like red. Eventually we’ll make some of the alternate color themes available to free users as well, but we’ll probably require you to unlock them somehow whereas paid users will get them right off the bat.

That’s all for now. Please enjoy your weekend and keep an eye out in the next couple weeks as we continue to update!

Living in a Material World – Reverse Lookup 3.0 Preview

Since the beginning of the year, we’ve been hard at work applying more and more polish to Reverse Lookup. We’re not quite ready to release it just yet, but we wanted to show a few screenshots of the direction we’re moving in.

In this release, as you can see, we’re bringing the app’s design up to date with a Material-inspired overhaul. Check out these screenshots for a small taste of what to expect:

reverse lookup material designreverse lookup material designThis update won’t stop with design updates though. Don’t worry – nothing is going to be drastically different, but you’re going to notice small details throughout the app that we’ve rethought for this update. We hope you’ll appreciate them as much as we think you will. We’ve also included several bug fixes and lots of internal code cleanup and optimizations. That last bit won’t affect you as a user, but it’s always helpful for us to drop as much cruft as possible.

That’s all for now. As mentioned above, this update is planned to be available within the next few weeks, so please keep your eyes open for it.

This update has been published for both the free and paid version of the app.

App Updates and Plans For The Remainder of 2014

Hey everyone,

Those of you paying close attention may have noticed spotty Play Store availability on a few of our games in the past week. Long story short, we had to un-publish them until we were able to make a small tweak, and we started republishing them this weekend.

Without making this change now, we would not have been able to publish any further updates, so we decided to do it all at once, like ripping off a band-aid.

So,.. good news – by the time you’re reading this, just about everything should once again be available except for Colordu. We decided that it could use some further polishing, so we’re going to take the time and freshen it up a bit while it’s down. When it’s back up in the next couple weeks, it should look and behave a little nicer, and hopefully you’ll all check it out if you’re a fan of Sudoku games.

In the course of making this round of updates, we also made some minor aesthetic tweaks to our Classic Sudoku game – the changes are subtle, but the game should feel a lot nicer to navigate through. We are planning some more polish work on this one in the next few weeks as well, so keep your eyes peeled for that. Oh, and the game is now compatible with older devices running Android 2.3.x Gingerbread.

..And as if we weren’t busy enough, we’re nearing the end of development on our next game, which we hope to release by the end of the year. We can’t say much more about it yet, but keep your eyes open for more information when we can start to share it.

Reverse Lookup fans shouldn’t feel left out, either – we have more updates coming for you too, including the beginning of our implementation of Google’s Material Design Guidelines.

Thanks again for checking out our apps, and stay tuned for more updates soon!
