There are actually many devices out there that do not have access to Google’s Android Market, for a variety of reasons. Because of this, we are now releasing Orange Squeeze on SlideME, which is an alternative marketplace for Android apps.
We’re trying to make sure that everyone who wants Orange Squeeze can get it, so if the options we provide are not sufficient, then let us know and we’ll try to get you up and running.
Orange Squeeze 1.0.6 Released
We’re very happy to announce the release of Orange Squeeze 1.0.6. This release is primarily a bug fix and compatibility release to address comments from our users. This is the first release building on our new bug tracking system, which helps us work in a more organized manner with our users. In addition to the bug fixes, there are several minor enhancements which you may notice and appreciate.

Inaugural Post
Happy New Year!
Today we’re launching the new Orange Bike Labs web site. We’re very happy to be hosting our site and all related services at WebFaction. These guys have a pretty fantastic service at a great price. I highly recommend them.
Just before the 2011 holiday season, Orange Bike Labs also launched our first product, Orange Squeeze. Since then it’s been very well-received, and we invite you to give it a try. It’s only $0.99 on the Android Market (link). We pushed out a series of maintenance releases in the subsequent two weeks, and now we’re back in development mode as we ready some new features.
2012 will bring several new products, including our first iOS releases, so stay tuned!
