Hello Friends has reached the marketplace in its current version 3.1 with improvements for WP7 and WP8 devices.

The Windows Phone 8 version comes with these changes:

• Improved update mechanism: The previous version sometimes had problems setting the current lock screen image. This is now solved, the lock screen will be updated even more reliable.
• Bug fix for the selection of custom contacts: Some users reported that the app crashed without any notice when trying to select custom contacts. A memory issue was solved so that this problem will no longer occur.

The Windows Phone 7.5 edition contains the following improvements:

• New preview mode including miniatures of all available templates (the same one that was previously released for the WP8 edition)
• One new template
• Bug fix for the selection of custom contacts (equivalent to the WP8 bug fix)

Both editions were released globally to all existing Windows Phone markets, now also including 42 new countries with stricter content rules (including China and Indonesia).
