bitesms 8 不支持ios6只支持ios7，所以你只能卸载掉它，重新装回bitesms 7。

Fixed crash issue that impacted some users when pressing the "Messages" button to navigate back to the conversation list.
Fixed up some more issues associated with signatures.
Note: No changes for iOS 3 users.
You can now follow biteSMS on
Version 4.95
Fixed all known issues with Drafts and Backgrounder consistencies in conversation list and conversations.
A nice NEW feature for all those users who have been so patient with the iOS 4 bugs. You can now backspace in Quick Compose to quickly get back to the "To:" field. Makes it much easier to change the recipient name. Settings->Quick Compose->Backspace to "To:" default OFF.
Fixed Quick Reply issue when there was more than 3 lines of text in landscape mode.
Cursor no longer disappears in Quick Compose.
There is no longer any "cannot use Keyboard" delay when Quick Compose is invoked. So now it’s quicker to use.
Fixed issue, whereby you could touch the "Contact Name" area on Quick Reply and it would incorrectly dismiss the alert.
Fixed a number of issues with signatures containing special characters, like smileys or brackets.
Fixed issue where biteSMS Passcode (if set) did not always appear if you opened the native Messaging app.
Fixed issue where [Open] in Quick Compose and Quick Reply and Contacts (etc) did not prompt for biteSMS Passcode (if set).
For incoming MMS messages the badge is now correctly shown on the biteSMS icon not the native Messaging one.
The above fixes are all for iOS 4 issues. The only change for iOS 3 is a fix whereby the Quick List icon did not always function correctly for a limited number of users.
Version 4.93
Lots of fixes in relation to the biteSMS conversation list and conversation contents now being consistent when opened after backgrounded via multi-tasking.
Contact pics are now displayed much FASTER and are cropped and scaled correctly.
Passcode feature in biteSMS now works correctly (except when using open from QC and QR).
Some draft bugs are fixed, but still lots to do.
Note: For existing users on iOS 3, this release is functionally the same as biteSMS 4.8 apart from some minor bug fixes.
Version 4.92
Fixed issue where the Quick List icon kept shifting around on the status bar.
Fixed issue where long contact names were overlapping the boundaries of the Quick Reply alert.
Fixed issue when going from Quick List to Quick Reply with draft text entered, the hide keyboard icon was incorrectly shown.
To dismiss Quick Reply back to the Quick List you must now press the Quick List icon and not just anywhere outside the Quick Reply alert. So in effect this now works like it did prior to iOS 4.
Fixed centering of the text in the Settings, Passcode Lock screen.
Lots more to do, we’ll keep pushing out 4.93…4.94 etc until all iOS 4 bugs have been fixed....getting there!
Note: For existing users on iOS 3, this release is functionally the same as biteSMS 4.8 apart from some minor bug fixes.
Version 4.91
The Quick List icon on the status bar now also works in App Store applications - so now works everywhere!
QC, QR and QL mostly now displays properly in Landscape mode (still some refinements required for the animations).
Fixed signature issues.
Minor other bug fixes and polishing.
Lots more to do, we’ll keep pushing out 4.92…4.93…4.94 etc until all bugs fixed. Then we can all relax and focus on features in Release 5.
Note: For existing users on iOS 3, this release is functionally the same as biteSMS 4.8 apart from some minor bug fixes.
Version 4.9
biteSMS now works on the recently released Apple iOS 4 Software Update!!!
For existing users on OS 3, this release is functionally the same as biteSMS 4.8 apart from some minor bug fixes.
It’s not a perfect release for iOS 4, but it’s there! We’ll continue to fix up bugs this week. If you find any on iOS 4 please email me at
Version 4.8
It's all about the NEW LOOK Quick Reply, including contact picture and timestamp - really COOL and great animations, check it out!!!
Added Activator support, done nicely of course.
Added back the delivery prefix feature (removed in Release 4.7) - mostly for UK O2 users. So biteSMS now supports the iPhoneDelivery application and Prefixes.
When pressing Quick List with only one message pending, Quick Reply will now open, so less touch events.
In the biteSMS app, the contact pictures now have nice rounded corners.
Improved the speed of touch events and animations when using Quick Reply and Quick Compose buttons.
Improved Privacy support in the new Quick Reply.
You can now tap the Quick List icon when a Quick Reply is displayed - this in effect does a Later action for you.
For Google "ad clicks" that result in the display of a web page we no longer exit out of biteSMS, but instead render the web page inside biteSMS.
Fixed up bugs with the "Currently Used" messages counter for messages sent via your mobile carrier.
Fixed up a bunch of other bugs and inconsistences.
Just to let you know that for the upcoming Apple Firmware 4.0 Release in June, biteSMS will be ready! We have completed most of the work, and are in the final testing stages. So expect a biteSMS release 4.9 very soon!
This should be the best, most stable release of biteSMS yet, so thanks for all your support!!!
Version 4.7
Quick List feature. From the biteSMS status bar icon, easily display and action your unread SMS messages.
A license is no longer required to use biteSMS, if you don’t have a license or credits you will be shown ads instead. The intent is that those who can't afford / don't want to pay can at least help in supporting the biteSMS team by accepting the ads.
Delivery Reports, done really nicely with icons!
Quick Reply now has 9 action buttons you can use. Simply configure (displayed or not, display order and gesture) in Settings, Quick Reply, Configure Buttons.
For example, my top 3 Quick Reply buttons are [Later] [Popup] [Send], and I can still swipe left & right in the Quick Reply window to make use of the other 6 buttons!!!
As above, but 6 action buttons for Quick Compose.
In Settings, Quick Reply, Configure Buttons you can choose the required action for the "Red X" icon or the Home button, as either Close (mark as read) or Later (leave unread) or no action.
Quick Compose now remembers the recipient and text you entered (within 5 minutes or until sent), so you can exit Quick Compose do something else and then come back and complete your message.
Added Pocket Protection feature (Settings, Lock Screen Mode, Features). Set this to off if you would like all the Quick Reply buttons to be active without needing to tap in the text field. I love this feature!
New settings "Lock Screen Mode >" and "Unlock Screen Mode >", allows you to quickly manage and visualize the settings for these two very different modes.
For example, want to use just Quick List in lock screen mode with no SMS alerts? It’s now easy to configure!
If you are in Quick List, Quick Compose or Quick Reply and an incoming SMS arrives, it no longer "takes over the screen" it simply gets added to the Quick List (after appropriate sound and vibrate).
The "Tap for Quick Compose" HUD now starts to fade immediately (still takes time to fade but starts straight away not 1.5 seconds later)
Under the group Carrier SMS Plan in settings, the "Plan Includes" and "Currently Used" counters are now 5-digits instead of 4.

Completely redesigned the privacy settings screen, so privacy outcomes are now much clearer and are also implemented properly.
The camera icon (3G only) is now used as a quick launch method for adding Photos, Smileys, Templates and Add Contact details.
On the biteSMS icon, we now show a failed ! symbol if a message has failed to send in the last week. This may mean that when you first upgrade to this release it will not be easy to locate any indicated failed message, so simply ignore it for a few days till you have a base line.
Added new graphic icons to the biteSMS pop-up sub-menu (the one with Smileys, Templates etc).
Added support for the Apple "Repeat Alert" feature. So this feature now works in biteSMS as well.
In settings, if you have purchased biteSMS credits, we now show the expiry date of the credits. Applies to new credit purchases only (for existing credit purchases simply use the "Restore >" option to update this expiry information).
For an incoming call, Quick Compose will now not appear if you press the volume key (to silence the incoming call) in lock mode.
If your mobile carrier supports sending an SMS to an email address (and it currently works for you in the biteSMS application) this will now also work in Quick Compose as well. So, it's quick and easy to send yourself an email reminder!
Added new setting for Quick Compose and Quick Reply to enable / disable the CLOSE action for the hardware home button.
If you locked your iPhone while biteSMS was running, then upon unlock it would restart (to ensure conversations were synchronized). This has now been reworked and thus biteSMS no longer restarts itself.
Fixed issue where some users did not get the badge on the biteSMS icon being updated correctly after using Quick Reply.
When biteSMS is invoked to compose a new message (say from the Contacts app) for a specific recipient, this did not work with the backgrounder application. This now works.

Added support for biteSMS, Quick Compose and Quick Reply to honor the SBSettings Rotation Inhibitor toggle.
Fixed quiet volume for incoming messages when in the home screen (it was always fine in the lock screen).
Added new Quick Compose setting "Mobile Contacts Only", which restricts list of contacts shown to those with just mobile type numbers.
In Quick Compose, the cursor now automatically jumps to the text field after user enters a single contact name (as you do this more often than sending to groups).
You can now access the cut&paste menu in the Quick Reply message text.
Added back the Release 4.3 feature "Slide to View".
When forwarding a message, formatting of blank lines etc was lost, this is fixed.
Fixed issue with Privacy not working when the Quick Reply feature was turned off.

Version 4.4
Added Quick Reply in lock screen mode!!!
Added landscape support for Quick Reply and Quick Compose.
Quick Reply now grows to be as large as the screen (as required) to display as much of the incoming message text as possible. The intent is to minimize the scrolling required to read large messages. Works the same in lock-screen mode as well.
Added support to allow MMS messages to be sent via the biteSMS network (so pink send button) for Germany (other countries coming soon). Please note only with T-Mobile is the senderID kept intact, for other networks it's a static value (so you'd need to put your name or number in the MMS message itself).
Added support to allow a user to quickly purchase credits (or a license) inside the biteSMS application (biteSMS->Settings->Buy).
Added a new setting in Quick Compose and Quick Reply, called "Lock Screen Dim", which controls if the screen automatically dims after sending a message (or exiting for Quick Reply). Only applies if there are no other pending SMS messages to action.
If an SMS was received with a short senderID, e.g. "mts" then biteSMS would not open to that conversation, instead incorrectly opening to the compose new message screen.
Fixed issue that Accents / Diacritics feature was not working in the biteSMS application (but worked fine in Quick Compose and Quick Reply).
When using the iPod application and toggling the mute control to bring up the Quick Compose HUD, we now set the volume correctly.
Added the "Flash" animation when switching between Carrier and biteSMS networks (by long pressing send button) in landscape mode.
Ensure uppercase and lowercase ? is treated as a unicode character (simply because some carriers confuse the two).
Fixed Quick Compose issue, when the Cut&Paste menu was displayed and a user tapped in the text field, the menu would not go away.
When tapping in the bubble area, the keyboard now slides away instead of just disappearing.
Changed incorrect smiley - see /forums/1/topics/1331?page=2#post_15370

Fixed Cut&Paste menu not appearing for Firmware 3.1 users.
Fixed issue with "To:" label scrolling off the Quick Compose screen.
Added support for the app iSmart Dialer such that biteSMS is now called instead of the native Messaging application.
For FW 3.1.2 users, there is a firmware bug in that the data connection is established but not used in the first instance, this effects all applications, not just biteSMS. e.g. Turn off WiFi, put your phone to sleep for a few minutes, slide to unlock, and access the weather app, you'll see it cannot update, until you come out of the app and back in. For biteSMS this causes messages sent via the biteSMS network to timeout. We have added a workaround so this does not occur in biteSMS, Quick Compose and Quick Reply.
Version 4.3
New feature that allows Quick Compose to be used in the lock screen mode - Nice!
Added support for "delivery receipt SMS notifications" using carrier prefix codes, e.g. #N9 (it's not proper SMS protocol level delivery receipts, it just asks your carrier - if supported, for an SMS notification upon delivery).For prefix codes see:
New Accents / Diacritics feature, whereby accent and diacritic characters are replaced with their equivalent non-special characters, e.g. á replaced with a. The intent is to maximize the number of characters you get when sending an SMS message.
Added a passcode feature to control access to biteSMS and native Messaging applications.
Added "Forward" feature in Cut&Paste menu on bubble double-tap inside the biteSMS application (SMS only, not MMS).
Added a heap more smileys :-)

Added smiley setting to allow encoding of smileys to be Emoji or ASCII.
When user enters the text field and it only contains a signature, the cursor will now be positioned before the signature (currently it's wherever the user touches).
The autocorrect feature now works correctly.
Added Mon, Tue, Wed...etc to the Settings, Carrier SMS Plan, Reset Counter feature for those on weekly plans.
Added a setting to allow the Quick Reply read / unread circle feature to be turned off.
Added a setting for Quick Reply to "Auto-Close" if set, when you press the Send button the window auto-closes.

Fixed Bug in Quick Compose and Quick Reply, where you entered text, lock, unlock and then the entered text was gone.
Fixed issue when using biteSMS sub-menu (from long-hold / double tap in text field) upon clicking back in text field, the cut&paste menu would be shown again.
Added a setting in Quick Compose called "Default Last To:", which defaults last entered contact into the "To" field.
Added a shadow effect in the Quick Compose and Quick Reply screens.
New pink send button in Quick Compose and Quick Reply screens.
Fixed iGo and Chopper from crashing when biteSMS installed.
Fixed issue, whereby upon first start-up of biteSMS after upgrade or install, it crashed due to other Mobile Substrate applications being active.
Note: For Firmware 2 users, although you’ll see a biteSMS update in Cydia as Release 4.3, functionally it’s exactly the same as biteSMS Release 3.2. In other words all the new biteSMS features shown above are only available for Firmware 3 users.
Version 4.2
You can now display your contact pictures in the conversation list - Cool!
You can now configure a signature that will get appended when composing a message, just like in an email - Nice!

Added a new setting Quick Reply "Marks as Read", to set the default Read state of a message in Quick Reply.
Quick Reply now displays and allows you to toggle between Read and Unread states.
In Quick Reply and the lock screen, smiley images are now displayed.
New feature for Italians on Vodafone's 100 SMS per day plans - In the "Carrier SMS Plan" settings group, in Reset Counter, we have added a new "Everyday" option.
The Italian and Polish language [send] button is now a little wider, such that the biteSMS character counter is displayed in it's entirety.
Added a new setting, ":) Keep Open", to control if the biteSMS smileys sub-menu is kept open after choosing a smiley (currently it always automatically closes).

Fixed up issue with the MMS Subject field causing the character counter to not count.
In Quick Reply, using the [Call] button will now correctly save the Read and Unread state.
In Quick Reply the keyboard will now always be transparent.
Note: For Firmware 2 users, although you’ll see a biteSMS update in Cydia as Release 4.2, functionally it’s exactly the same as biteSMS Release 3.2. In other words all the new biteSMS features shown above are only available for Firmware 3 users.

In Quick Compose and Quick Reply, pressing the Home hardware button now closes the QC or QR window.
Added a Favorites icon in Quick Compose, to make it easier and quicker to locate your favorite contacts.

Quick Switch setting now honored in Quick Compose and Quick Reply, and the default is ON if you already have credits.
Made the credits counter (e.g. 320 credits) now appear in the text field, instead of the scroll region.
Fixed issue, whereby (only sometimes) a smiley could cause a bubble to truncate the displayed text.

After deleting a message bubble, biteSMS will no longer scroll to the end of the conversation.
Where buttons slide up from the bottom of the screen ([Clear] button and Right Swipe on bubble) they are now spaced and colored as per Apple UI standards.
Fixed the bug whereby if you locked your iPhone while in the landscape mode of biteSMS, upon unlock it mangled the screen.
Rotation logic now the same as Safari (so that when your phone is upside down, it does not register this as a change in orientation).

Added a "Smileys" setting to control if Smiley images should be shown instead of ASCII characters.
