It was just a few hours ago that I was talking about Blaq for BlackBerry PlayBook in THE HEAVY ROTATION. And now the latest version has fallen into our laps. But not without a lot of testing, blood, sweat & tears.


Blaq for BlackBerry PlayBook is now v1.7.2. There’s a couple new features and plenty of necessary bug fixes.

Here’s what’s new:

  • Clicking on a tweet in a conversation or tweets list for users opens the tweet in the tweet card
  • Clicking on a user in followers or following opens the user’s profile

And here are some bug fixes:

  • Retweet failures
  • Search results are sometimes not tappable
  • Search view not rendered properly switching from portrait to landscape
  • Avatars in swipe-down menu are larger than intended
  • Links within DMs are no longer clickable
  • Tweet card showing under search list
  • Mini-browser appears above options
  • T.co links in search
  • Tweet card options menu shows behind tweet card in search
  • Minor bug fixes
