iOS App Update

February 22nd, 2017|Categories: Updates|Tags: , |

After a great deal of consideration and discussion, we have decided to retire the WeaveUp iOS app on Wednesday, February 22. We came to this decision after weighing the benefits of an iOS app with our ability to support it long-term. By retiring the app, we will be focusing all of our efforts on continuing to improve your online WeaveUp experience. Our website works on smartphones, tablets, and desktops alike. Your login credentials are the same across all platforms, and your color customizations and custom uploads will always appear in the same place - on your My WeaveUp page. Questions? Concerns? Comments? Let us know at support@weaveup.com.
