Hi guys is Scringo still a hidden slide on screen, this is the reason why I don't use it. I prefer Socialize only because it has a tool bar that is visible all the time. Does Scringo have this option now?

Just got he notice yesterday about 2.0 Haven't played with it for a while becaiuse it just seemed so undocumented and raw. This does look like it has matured quite a bit. PN now? Even more reason why it's a bummer to see BT spending so much effort to add them here. Almost insane to think you might have Parse, Appoxee and Scringo in the same app and all those ways to Push. Do they have a user model now or is it still all FB and Twitter accounts? hard to tell glossing over the documentation. May have to try out the Android....

@dragon you can now add a button in the navbar that has a badge that updates, it is still hidden, but the effect from the button press is good. You can also add a like button similar to socialize.

Awesome. Still a fan of socialize, I think it looks cooler and is more customizable. I hated Scringo, changing colors on it was such a pain in the arse - had to change a TON of files just to change the blue color to red. Socialize, it was one png. It added beautifully to any screen. I'll check it out through, very interested to see where it is! Thanks again, David. https://buzztouchmods.com

@Absentia - I'd give it a go for sure, we got to play with it a couple of weeks ago and it is nothing like before. They've overhauled the entire thing and crammed a heck of a lot in. That said, I chat to them about fitba as my team stole some of their players so always had a soft spot for the guys.

@Kittsy.. have you tried adding scringo to an app that uses your carousel plugin at startup? mine constantly crashes on my ipad device and doesn't crash on the simulator. also, i see a conflict with the swipe so it really doesnt work for me still trying to work through it

Yup it works on device as well I made the carousel a vertical scroller as obviously both classes are fighting for the horizontal swipe. Here's a vid with it in action Ihttp://youtu.be/d37tDirl4CU

Looks like they monetize by advertising other paid apps in the social media swipe screen. If someone buys an app through your feed then everyone get a cut. Ryan

Ok, I contacted Scringo and there was indeed problem on their end with older versions. "Hi, Indeed there was an issue with the version you downloaded for older iOS versions, and now it's fixed. Thanks for the catch!" If anyone else is targeting more iOS's I recommended adding the new version. https://dev.scringo.com/resources.php?resource=downloads

Hey gang, I wanted to update you that Scringo just uploaded a new version of the SDK, which includes an API to enable/disable the swipe: You can read about it here: https://dev.scringo.com/resources.php?resource=api#Pause/Resume Swipe

I guess it is something to do with this Pause/Resume Swipe +(void)pauseSwipe; Pauses swiping. +(void)resumeSwipe; Resumes swiping. +(BOOL)isSwipeEnabled; Returns YES if swiping is enabled. Ive tried the "+(void)pauseSwipe;" in a few places but i can still swipe. Im just hoping that this 'pause swipe' doesnt pause the swiping on the carousel plugin.......

Hey I highly recommend using the "flip" transition on a few buttons to visually remind users that the scringo feature is behind the original user interface. Also, I've had issues with scringo enabled apps resetting/refreshing on their own and "logging out" of the social media accounts. Elon at Scringo said this will not cause users to lose their followers and messages when they re-connect the account in the app. Ryan
