We would also like to remind you of two new pages we have created. One to answer the most frequently asked questions and another to keep track of the status of sites integration progress.
bitBulletin FAQ page
bitBulletin Sites Status Database
Here are the main updates from this page:

We understand the rage among our customers. We are aware of the issues experienced by our customers right now. We are working hard to fix them. As a proof of our dedication to our products, we will provide phpBB and IPBoard support next week. It won't need a new version, we will update our forum engine description file on our server.
We have also fixed the description in the AppStore to not say "ANY" forums but "ANY vBulletin" forums.
Hopefully our ratings in the AppStore won't stay like that for version 1.2 but we fully understand why they are so low.

Thank you for the great support you are showing us. We have received lots of feedbacks and requests. As we are working hard on version 1.2, we are making sure everyone gets support for their favourite sites. We would like to remind you that bitBulletin only supports vBulletin 3 and 4 forum engines at the moment. We are planning on supporting more forum engines in the coming updates. We are removing 1.1 (it was not even in review yet) from the submission queue at Apple, to rush 1.2 out the door today. Here are some of the updates for version 1.2 of bitBulletin for today:
Today also marks a big step forward for bitBulletin. We have created an FAQ page and Site Status Database which lists all sites that are being worked on and their progress status. This way you will always be informed of exactly what is going on with various sites support.
- Fix: Login issue and forum engines using forum.php instead of index.php.
- Fix: Logout crash issue.
- Fix: When a connection error occurs, it does not crash anymore.
- Fix: Memory leaks when accessing the Tabs and Favourites menu.
- New: Better error reporting message dialog.
- New: Device and bitBulletin app information is provided in support emails. Without this information we won't be able to provide technical support.
- New: When application becomes active (on iOS 4.x and up only), forums recognition engine definitions and forums list is reloaded so you don't have to restart bitBulletin manually anymore.
