Bluevibe v2.1.3 released

Today Bluevibe announced the 2.1.3 version of the most advanced mobile services platform, featuring the new “Application Creator” tool and the brand new Bluevibe Mobile and Bluevibe ODP.

After the introduction of WiFi and captive portal functionality in version 2.1, many of our customers requested features and additions to the Bluevibe Manager and Bluevibe Mobile, that would complement and help them leverage the new capabilities of the platform.

This release comes as a reply to these requests introducing a wide range of additions and new features. Below you will find a list of the most important improvements that have been keeping our development team busy the previous months.

Bluevibe Mobile v2.4

• Theme file auto-save. Bluevibe Mobile now saves the theme file of the last hotspot. That way a user can keep the provider and hotspot specific services on his/her phone even after leaving the proximity of the hotspot. Additionally the auto-save function improves browsing performance.

• Improved browser speed. Using smart caching techniques the Bluevibe Mobile reduces the amount of requests needed to load a page, while keeping memory usage low.

• Media Handling. Bluevibe Mobile is now capable of displaying media files, this improves the overall browsing experience.

• Improved file save support. A user can choose to save a media file or an XHTML page directly to his/her phone from within the Bluevibe Mobile application. This function comes now as a complementary option for content download using OBEX Push from a Bluevibe Hotspot.

• New theme options. The theme of the Bluevibe Mobile application now handles even more aspects of the UI look and feel.

• Special commands. Bluevibe Mobile supports special commands in the xhtml that allows providers to create smart widgets in XHTML for their users.
