It's been a little while since we haven't updated Voilà! The main reason was that we were pretty busy working on Serenade, but also that we had big plans on launching a totally new version of Voilà! (2.0) rewritten from scratch. We were a little bit ambitious on this, and it's going to take much more time that planned. But don't worry, we're still taking care of the current Voilà! Today, we're introducing Voilà! 1.3 that contains a lot of changes and we know that you'll like them.

Better map, with tracking
We now use the great MapKit framework introduced in iPhone 3.0 to render the map in the application. No more static map, welcome to a beautiful dynamic map. Use it the same way you use Google Maps on your iPhone, you can pinch, zoom in (double tap), zoom out (tap with 2 fingers),... Simply tap the blue dot (your current location) to reveal your current address. The map and your current location will be updated real-time on the map. If you lost yourself on the map, tap the "Locate me" button at the bottom left of the main screen, and we'll show you were you're currently are again.

In-app email with map
You can now share your location by email without leaving the application. Plus, the emails now contains a map of your current location.

Tons of improvements
We deleted a bunch of code thanks to the improvements and new frameworks Apple released in the 3.0 SDK. We also fixed the bug that was not allowing certain persons to share their location on Facebook correctly.

We're going to release a small update to Voilà! in a couple of weeks, with some more improvements, before working full time on Voilà! 2.0. Stay tuned!
