Today a new release of Sky Wallet has been published and is available on the Store to all Windows Phone 8 users.
This is the first release of the app that targets Windows Phone 8, so the update won’t be visible to users with phones running the previous versions of Windows Phone.
Discover the new Sky Wallet 3.8 here!
Also the Windows Phone 7.5 has been updated, and published as version 3.4.
Today Sky Wallet version 3.3 has been certified and published on the Store.
This update fixes the data corrupted issue that appeared three days ago. If you didn’t encounter that issue because you didn’t synchronize during the last days, simply update the app.
If you had your data removed from your phone due to the issue, to make sure your data will be correctly recovered from SkyDrive you should uninstall Sky Wallet from your phone and then install the version 3.3 from the Store. Obviously, if you have already purchased the app, you won’t be charged again by the store for getting the app again on your phone.
Following up the issue reported about synchronization and corrupted data error, I submitted a new version of the app to the Windows Phone Store.
The update fixes the issue and it is being certified by Microsoft. I will notify you when the new version (3.3) will be published.
The desktop companion is ok and does not require any update.
Beginning yesterday, some users reported that they are encountering an issue when synchronizing data from SkyDrive to the phone app. The app says data is corrupted or it hangs while trying to download data from SkyDrive.
I’m investigating and it seems the issue is related to SkyDrive service that changed something, making the app work wrong.
The desktop companion is not affected, you can still access your data from your PC.
I’ll keep you up to date about the issue and the resolution. In the meanwhile, please backup your SkyWalletData.txt file from SkyDrive to a safe place, to ensure you won’t loose any data while waiting for a solution.
