This live-streaming app promises a tremendous improvement, including "tons" involving bug fixes and some new features, although some of these don't yet are promised.
It seems how the update's primary concentrate was bug fixes and stability upgrades. "It is far more stable and user friendly, " Meerkat's developers promise in their release notes to the 1. 1 replace. They especially devoted to bugs related to crashes, audio and video clip syncing and difficulties with the app's rotation.
The update also promises to add a fairly large set of new features, which includes new recommendations, in-app notifications, new discovery features and the opportunity to reshare scheduled streams. Another big improvement is the opportunity to turn off @replies upon comments within streams; this means that users can now choose to retain their comments inside of Meerkat, and not share them with all of Twitter.
However, within my testing the 1. 1 replace, Meerkat unfortunately is catagorized flat on a lot of the other new functions it promises. One example is, the recommendations regarding new accounts that you follow, which are purported to appear in the particular app's search selection, do not apparently exist. And Meerkat's search seems just like buggy as ever before; looking for company accounts only works find out the exact handle you choose. Finally, the power to follow new consumers from within streams also fails, although you is able to see more information about individual users inside of streams.
Should Meerkat get these features ready to go, they would go a long way toward improving the particular app. Fixing search and discoverability will likely be very important to the platform if that hopes to contest with Twitter's new live-streaming app Periscope. Meerkat once was able to control Twitter's social chart for these functions, but the last option subsequently pulled the particular former's access, and thus limiting discovery functions for new consumers.
