Those with iPhones or iPod Touch devices might be wondering, “if I buy a program on the App Store, what happens if a new version comes out?”
Well luckily that’s all been worked out. Anyone who has downloaded the free New York Times app and been immediately disappointed by the performance and quality of it have probably noticed the App Store icon on the home screen showing a little number badge on top of it.
If you go to the App Store and follow that notification a similar badge appears in the updates section, allowing you to download the new version of whatever application needs updating. If you are away from your sync computer, it will install and prompt you to copy the new version over to your sync computer when the phone is connected. Very slick.
Nothing like a little som’n som’m to look forward too every now and again.
