Genealogy Gems Podcast App 1.6.1
July 20, 2010 by Administrator · Leave a Comment
The folks at the Genealogy Gems Podcast have updated their iPhone/iPod touch/iPad app to version 1.6.1.
They created the app to make it easier to access all of the content that goes along with the Genealogy Gems Podcast (aka Your Family History Show) – they are just limited to being a podcast. They also provide background information for the shows (PDFs, etc.), along with audio and video content that didn’t make it into the podcasts but that may still be of interest to followers. The app also allows you to call in and make comments to the show (if you’re an iPhone owner).
The 1.6.1 update (there probably wasn’t a 1.6.0 released externally) includes an in-app audio player.
Version 1.6.1 Changes:
* New feature – an in-app audio player to listen to and use other features through the app.
* Minor bug fixes
