Version 2.0: Photos
Posted by Mark Locker on 18th December 2009.
One of the most requested features for Thrill Seeker has been the addition of photos to the app and today I'm pleased to be able to tell you that the implementation of photos is virtually complete!
Thrill Seeker will download photos from our server, displaying them in a way very similar to the native 'Photos' application that comes with all iPhones and iPod touches. Once a photo has been downloaded, it's cached so that you don't need to download it again. If you're viewing lots of photos, then the cache can of course grow quite large, so there's an option to clear the cache if you're running low on space - or disable it all together.
Here's a shot of the Photos screen for the Oblivion ride at Alton Towers:

You can navigate through photos just like you do in the native 'Photos' app, by swiping left and right with your finger. There's also a button at the bottom left of the screen which brings up the option to save the current image to your camera roll:

We'll be busy populating Thrill Seeker with 1,000's of photos between now and the launch of the app and can't wait to deliver some multimedia to our users.
