Updates for 2.6.1:

– Fixed tablet styling on language guide categories so that they are now centered vertically
– Fixed rare cause of bug crash when trying to download a language pack when already on the phrases
– Fixed app to cancel downloading language pack when app is closed
– Fixed tablet styling on Translate screen such that language selection items are now larger
– Restyled all language selection dropdown to use larger country icons for easier selection
Interestingly, Steve Wozniak (Apple co-founder) recently proclaimed he’s now a Xiaomi user. Xiaomi, the Chinese cell phone manufacture and producer of the awesome MIUI Android-based ROM, has grown rapidly in the last year with 18.7 million sales last year (2013). The MIUI skin on Android is very slick and to see Steve Wozniak agree really gives credibility to Xiaomi’s efforts at disrupting the mobile scene with its low cost hardware and awesome skinned Android ROM.
