Hi Guys, We've just released version AGOGO 1.5 which i pushed out basically just to adjust some of the feature requests you guys mentioned. Would love to hear your feedback if you have a chance to check it out!
I've added the following two features: Support for the "Scrub Gesture" which allows you to go back. "Now playing" now has an adjustable slider to allow you to quickly adjust the playback position. Thanks for the help making AGOGO more accessible! -Robert On Monday, May 26, 2014 3:58:04 AM UTC-7, Robert Manson wrote: > > Thanks everyone for the feedback. > > It looks like everyone implements the scrubber more or less the same so I > think that is definitely a good starting point.
