Sparrow 1.4.1 is live

It took a while but Apple finally let it out. 

Sparrow 1.4.1 is here with much awaited bug fixes. This new version fixes the following issues:

  • Growl 1.3 support
  • iCloud Support
  • Mail ordering
  • Quick reply all 
  • Encoding issue
  • Quick Look in full screen mode
  • Keychain issue
  • Various crash & bugs

Some of you might still experience issues with iCloud despite the update.

Apple is using a custom authentication system for some iCloud accounts and they haven’t shared the details of it with us yet. This explains why it could not work as expected and require you to follow this workaround.

The lonesome death of attachments Sparrow 1.4 is a special release for us. We took the time to improve our little bird both in terms of UI and performance. You should notice right away that Sparrow is now faster than ever. It’s also been a while we wanted to integrate CloudApp. We use it daily at Sparrow and we thought it would make a lot of sense to get it into Sparrow. A video is worth a thousand words so have a look below to see how it can make you more efficient and introduce a little magic in your mail experience: All you have to do is activate the option in Sparrow Preferences and attachments should never be a problem again. Of course, that’s not all. We also added: A reversed thread ordering like in Gmail (older messages on top) Pull-to-refresh and we have made some improvement on the UI: Default image in conversation view when no message or multiple message are selected Window resize issue Default compose window size Message list default size is kept when modifying the sidebar state Sidebar animations when showing / hiding Default minimal size of windows Important changes were also made under the hood, with a brand new draft management system which makes Sparrow: Send mail faster Behave better with bad network/ offline behavior Synchronize faster Bug fixes: Zoho compatibility Lotus Domino compatibility Free compatibility Dovecot server  Crash on Send & Archive and various crashes Animation bug when unminimizing Sparrow from the Menu bar icon Hanging issue on Lion Erased space in signature ‘Not Spam’ option in the Spam folder Open the Mac App Store to update your Sparrow and make the most of this new features or simply check for update.
