On iOS, a new "BLOON" shortcut (folder) has been added to "On My iPhone" in the "Files" app. On Android, we have changed the file download location directly to the system's default "Downloads" folder.
Additionally, this version introduces features to create folders and rename items (files and folders).
Version 1.3.3 introduces delta sync . The BLOON app now resyncs only the modified portions of large files, saving time and bandwidth.
Also, when a bloon member creates or reactivates a sharelink , a notification now appears on the message board.
The newly released BLOON App version 0.10.5 introduces a new image preview feature, allowing you to view the original image directly and zoom in for a closer look. Additionally, we've made an attempt to fix a file selection issue on certain Android devices.
It can get tough after a while to remember which sharelinks were supposed to expire when, so we’ve made it easier than ever to see which items have active sharelinks on them. Get BLOON 1.3.2 today!
