iPhone OS 3.0 update not playing nicely with eReader Pro

I have been pleasantly surprised that we have not seen many reports of iPhone OS 3.0 negatively affecting any apps. That said, the first report that I am seeing is coming courtesy of jkOnTheRun who are reporting that OS 3.0 breaks eReader Pro.

It was noted that the bookshelf part of the app no longer works, however you can still use the reader part of the app. That said, Fictionwise, who are the team behind the app are already aware of the issue and have already submitted a fix. Now they are just waiting for that new (and fixed) version of the app to hit the App Store.

In other words, if you are an eReader Pro user then just hold tight your app should be back to normal soon.

    Another app with problems in 3.0 is WIFITRACK. It just can’t connect to the wifi scanner of the iPhone.

    There is also a fix sent to app store, but not available yet !

    Dirbling, Flash is NOT in OS 3.0. Won’t happen for a while.

    I’m sure there’s quite a few app updates heading to the App Store right now…might be a while for eReader. I’m just glad that Stanza works as a backup for eReader/Fictionwise content. Too bad I utterly hate how Stanza RENDERS said eReader/Fictionwise content. >.<

    Thanks, I thought it was just me! I can still read the book I’m currently reading, but I can’t go to my bookshelf to switch to a different book. I’m glad to hear there’s a fix in the works!

    Jodi –

    You CAN download one book at a time. Just delete and reinstall the ereader app and you’ll get your one opportunity. It’s a pain, but it works!
