5.2.0
2023-09-05
Woah, man.
Versione 5.2.0 of the triple j app has finally arrived, and let me tell u: it's the next one after 5.1.2. Wow. Numbers, man. You can't make this stuff up. Here's what's new:
BUG FIXE: Heaps of bugs, all fixe. It's like a full-on fumigation in here, man. Woah. No pesticides.
PERFORMANCE IMPROVE: the app should think a bit quicker now. we built in a few bypasses on the superhighway, man. Get from A to B quicker.
Anyway, I love u, stay hydrated!
5.1.2
2023-09-01
OK. I lied. You got me. I said last time that the new version of the triple j app would be called Version 5.2.0. BUT: that's not the case now.
Clearly, if you have eyes (or ears -- hi to our friends using a screenreader!), you can see that this version is called Version 5.1.2. Disgusting. That's on me. My fault. Nomenclature is complicated. Please trust me when I say it will probably NOT happen again.
Anyway: welcome to Versione 5.1.2 of the triple j App! It's a sick one. Sick in the good sense, like, "that's sick!" and not sick in the bad sense, like antibiotics. Here's what's in it:
1) More content on the home screen. Turns out you love it when we do that, so we have done some more of it. In addition to Like A Version being easier than ever to access on the app's home screen, you'll now also get quick access to:
- MIXES: Mixes! From your favourite triple j programs such as The Nudge, House Party, and Others.
- THE HOOK UP: juicy news from your favourite triple j Sex and Relationships program, The Hook Up. Hot.
2) Bug Fixes.
- If you have been trying to access our programs via the Newsfeed: whoops. Some stuff changed on our big interconnected robot computers at the ABC and they went away for a sec. It's all better now.
- If you have been trying to go back and listen to old episodes of shows, and haven't been able to, you can do that now. Our developer Daniel did this real nice 4 u.
Anyway again, TTFN, ta ta for now, see you at the next update
5.1.1
2023-08-21
This guy - 5.1.1. has some fixes from the past month or so. There'll be another release (5.2 I reckon!) in the next week or so. That one will also fix some things and introduce some new things. triple j: we love things.

2023-07-14

5.0.1
2023-07-11
This version contains a patch (like a band-aid) for a bug (like a caterpillar) we found today (like the day after yesterday). It'll be useful for listening to triple j Hottest and counting down the Hottest 100 of Like A Version in the short term, and in the long term, hey bb. the app is your oyster (like the weird rock with goo in the middle).
5.0.0
2023-06-25
5.0.0. contains a bunch of hidden surprises that we're going to turn on at a later date. You 100% absolutely need this version in your life for reasons that will become apparent later.
When it happens, you will be like: "of course," and then you will think about how, previously, you had read this blurb about What's New In This Version, and then you will send a cosmic high-five off into the universe. I will receive it, cosmically, and I will then send a high five back to you via registered mail.
4.10.3
2023-02-24
This version contains a bunch of stuff Under The Hood (car slang) to make things in the app go a bit more Touchdown (footy slang).
Anyway. Not much else, what about you?
Hope you're going good and that your life is Very Nice! (Borat slang).
4.10.2
2023-01-18
What's New In This Version? Oh, I don't know, just a little thing called triple j's Hottest 100. No big deal. It's not like you care. Except, wait, don't stop reading, I am only joking you, of course you care about this, so do I, deeply. It is triple j's Hottest 100, the biggest event of your human life each year on the earth planet. Here's some good news: downloading this version of the triple j app will make your life for the Hottest 100 significantly better, more colourful, vivacious, full of vim. VIM! You're going to have the best time on triple j's Hottest Weekend from January 27 - January 29, 2023.
4.8.0
2022-09-07
This version of the app will allow users to participate in a ~ very mysterious ~ upcoming triple j event!
4.7.1
2022-08-01
Yeehaw, ya big cactus. This update is small and contains almost no green spiky bits. What it DOES do is make AAC audio files respond better. We don't use them very often but it's better you being able to click on the audio and have it play, than what would have happened had we not pushed through this update -- which was going to be, you click on the audio and then your triple j app would go all green and spiky. Ouch! Can u imagine? The paramedics would have been like, "oh no, not this again." But we saved u.
4.7.0
2022-07-13
This version of the triple j app takes you direct to Splendour In The Grass 2022! Like: not literally, you will not be on-site, rolling eagerly around in the fresh mud in the North Byron Parklands. But IN SPIRIT, muffin, you are there. Look! Colours! Animations! Live music! All inside of your Personal Mobile Device! Hell yea, dog. For a full and complete simulated festival experience, we recommend that you also hire a set of gumboots, a Flower Crown, and a porta-loo of questionable structural integrity for the duration of the festival. Fab. Have fun!!
4.6.0
2022-06-13
This version contains privacy enhancements for iOS.
4.5.5
2022-06-06
4.5.5, is the brand new release from the triple j app; it is a step up both chronologically and development-wise for our product.
Chronologically, 5 is the number that comes after 4. It is a higher number. And everyone knows that when it comes to triple j app releases, the higher the number, the more impressive the release is in the chronology. We are doing great in that regard.
Development-wise, this release sees the completion of our migration to a new API delivery service that began at 4.5.0. The changes you will see on the surface are minimal but the changes to the code are like, Futurama level futuristic. It's all flying cars and jetpacks and (ethically appropriate) DNA cloning going on in there under the hood.
Like for example, imagine if you were a big car guy: you loved cars, thought all day about cars, dreamed about cars every night. And let's say one day you notice this one car called "triple j app", and it's all sparkly and glimmering and then you start to notice that there's celestial harps and majestic trumpets playing somewhere just off in the distance. So, obviously, you crank the bonnet right open, just crank it straight up, crankily, to have a see of what's going on in there. And then pretty much immediately you're like "WOAH" and you start crying because inside it's made of the shiniest chrome and it has the vroomiest engine you can imagine. You would be in heaven. That's basically what this is.
4.5.4
2022-05-29
Oh baby -- in this version? we are making even more changes behind the scenes that will be invisible to you but will help everyone in the long run: better stuff, faster stuff, gooder stuff. You love it. Like and subscribe.
4.5.3
2022-05-26
We are continuing to chip away at our infrastructure behind the scenes. If we have done our job well, you will notice no changes in this build (but things will overall be a bit better, faster, cooler).
4.5.2
2022-05-23
We are continuing to roll out changes behind the scenes to make all of the pipes and plumbing of the app fit together smoother. Think of it as a combination of Mario (the enthusiastic plumber afraid of mushrooms) and Tetris (the terrifying game of getting all the little blocks to line up just right). While this version downloads, maybe you could treat yourself to a nice big glass of water.
4.5.1
2022-05-01
If you read the update for the last version: this is more of the same! We are working hard behind the scenes so that things go faster.
If you did not read the update for the last version: firstly, very poor etiquette. I am furious. But basically the vibe is: We are doing a lot of work behind the scenes to make things better. Imagine like we are building a house or something, and the last update was, We Bought A Block Of Land, and now this update is, Now We're Laying The Concrete. Please do not write anything rude in the concrete.
4.5.0
2022-04-20
Ok so do you know what a plumber does? Like, you kno how they get all up in there with the pipes and the wrenches and probably sometimes they're like: "hmmmm... we're going to need to pull out all the old pipes and put some some new pipes in here"? Basically that's what's happened in this app update: we've ripped out our old rusty yuck computer pipes and replaced them with legit sparkling brand new stainless steel pipes (or whatever good computer pipes are made of -- ceci n'est pas une pipe expert, u feel me?).
Why have we done this? The short answer is: new pipes = fast, clean, better for everyone. No clogging. Whereas, old pipes = full of goo, soon to be phased out. They gotta go.
Anyway: this is a plumbing update. No major design or feature changes. New pipes tho!
4.4.0
2022-04-05
Oh baby!! A fresh new triple j App update for you to deeply enjoy. This one is jacked full of beautiful, integrated development protein: head to toe, top to bottom, no-nonsense-nourishment for your phone. Cuddle it at night if you want. Nobody can stop you (NB: if they do try to stop you, dump them pronto. They don't get you). Here's what's what:
- Better Carplay! It's fully beefed up. Performance enhanced. Zero ghosts.
- Some bug fixes! The vibe is, if you were having trouble adding your songs to Spotify, or if you were getting some weird bugs in there, our app developers have fixed that for you.
- Also, improved support for iOS 14 and 15. This will be the last update to support iOS 13. Get on that new iOS (it goes up to 15 now!!) to continue to get the best from us.
OK, love you, drink some water.
4.1.1
2022-01-18
Okay. Version 4.1.1. Here it is. We know you have been waiting with bated breath like: "Is It Coming?? Version 4.1.1?? Soon please??"
And like, Yes Babes. Here it is. This version is full of a whopping five or six bug fixes designed to make app performance smoother, just in time for the Hottest 100. Like, we're talking smooooooth, babes. Limited stubble, babes. No abrasive cuts or scrapes unless you do something super weird, babes. We fixed:
- the bug where the app player stopped appearing on the phone's lock screen
- the bug where the app would not resume playback if it was interrupted by something like a phone call or an alarm
- the thing where if you connected to bluetooth, there was sometimes some weird stuff going on with adjusting the volume
- the bug where if you listened back to an audio episode, the player would count down the remaining time in minutes only, rather than hours, minutes, and seconds.
- the bug where if you were trying to use Car Play, but the app wasn't already open, you couldn't user Car Play.
- some display stuff. correct sizings, fonts, situations where we were out by a couple of pixels here or there. Sorry about that one. All better now.
4.1.0
2022-01-12
In this version, we're bringing the bells and whistles for triple j's Hottest 200-101 and Double J's Hottest 100 of 2001 countdowns. Some of the bells include a dedicated beautiful background for you to experience these countdowns in Pristine Colour and with All Of The Numbers Counting Down In Order. Good stuff. As far as whistles go, we also fixed some CarPlay bugs - so that should be way more chill now if you're listening to triple j via Carplay in your car.
Keep your eyes out for our upcoming release, 4.1.1, too. Not to get all "Big Things Coming" on u, but it's got a lot of fixes to a lot of annoying little bugs that will make your Hottest 100 experience just that bit more spesh.

2021-10-11
