Oh ok. So under that workflow, something in the inbox implies it needs dealing with (whether unread or not)? And archived stuff is dealt with?

Still 100,000+ to go for me on Mailbox. Does anyone know how it plays with Sanebox filtering? And also, are messages that are hidden or moved by Mailbox also hidden/moved in Gmail's web interface?

Idea for an app, I want to know if it exists.

It basically allows you to specify when your phone goes from silent to not silent. Could this be done?

So like timed mute-profiles? You'd need to jailbreak, unfortunately.

No, not in an App Store app. Your best option for that would be the limited functionality that exists in DnD.

Location and calendar-specific profiles have been a shortcoming on iOS since its launch and I seem to bring it up every month. Other phones have done it for ages.

Apple's aware of it.

There used to be a Cydia app called MyProfiles or something like that. It was what I used when I switched from Blackberry to iPhone many years ago. Not sure if it's still around, but it did some nice profile related items in terms of alerts.

HBO Go just got an update that supports AirPlay, which is pretty cool. Maybe a native AppleTV app is next?

Yup, this is inevitable. It's pretty clear that HBO wants to wring as much money from the current cable cartel, but with an eye to switching over to things like Apple TV as it becomes increasingly obvious that's the future.

I've been using it for the last couple months. I don't think it made it any easier for me to wake up like they say it does, but I still like using it just to monitor how well I sleep. Having a record of this stuff has helped me get to sleep earlier.

I've just bought it. I wonder if having a memory foam mattress will make it work better or worse. They're less bouncy so it might prevent it picking up my wife flailing around and jerking all her limbs in the middle of the night which would be better from a data capture point of view.

Depends on where you place the phone and how much your bed transfers movement, I suppose. I'm sure you'd get very different results between a traditional spring mattress and a memory foam mattress.

I tried tumblr for the first time and made an account through the app. I skipped the part where you choose an avatar because I figured I'd just choose one later.

Now as far as I can tell there's no way to actually change your avatar in the app? Even after making an avatar through the web version, in the app all I ever see is the default pic. Any way to change this?

Actually, the phone should be placed close enough to the sleeper that the mattress doesn't make all that much difference. Memory foam deforms more near the sleeper than a conventional mattress, so it can (and does, in my case) pick up higher amplitudes in its measurements.

Log out of the app, close it completely and log back in. It works sometimes.

Bah, hasn't done anything yet. I can't believe there is literally no option in the app to change your avatar, beyond a single tease when you create your account. Or if there is, it is stupidly well-hidden.

What's the status of the Awful app? I really miss it since they changed the forums software. :(

I've noticed this bug too. The app seems to be aggressive about caching avatars for some reason.

I'm not sure why the app doesn't have any account management features at all, but it is kind of annoying.

It was updated pretty much immediately after the changes to the forums, and the app continues to get better and better. You want this thread http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3510131

Sounds like you have the old app. Pokeyman took over development because OHIO didn't have time to work on it anymore. He had to submit it as a new app because there is no way to move an app to a different App Store account.

I believe the old app should have prompted you to download the new app at some point, but I was already running betas of the new version by then so I honestly can't say for sure that it ever happened. You're not the first person to miss the switchover.

No, the app changed authors and you probably didn't download the new version.

Well this is fantastic! Feels great to have the app back. Apparently AppShopper considers it an update to the original app, which is where my confusion lied. I got an update notification via AppShopper, and when I didn't see an update in the actual App store I assumed I had updated already and AppShopper was just slow on the draw.
