You would be forgiven for not. Back in March we took dubble off the app store and promised it would be back online soon. Soon was loosely defined. The reality is we had a lot of work to do and only a few fingers to do it.

I could go into the ins and outs of the delay but there’s so many ins and even more outs. Now you just need to get excited as we really are close.

Close will also be loosely defined but i can tell you we only have a couple of small hurdles and the app is looking amazing.

Good question. 

Back in early 2014 you downloaded dubble and loved it. Sure the app had “issues” but you didn’t care. You loved it and made a ton of dubbles and shared them on social.

Late 2015 we told you dubble v2 was coming. At some point.

Here’s the thing, theoretically speaking there are only two of us (don’t we look cool?) working on dubble and it’s 100% a labour of love.

We also get a ton of help from this gorgeous dude but he is also doing it for the love.

When people do it for the love they also need day jobs so they can eat and food and pay for the honour of living on this planet.

This has delayed us MASSIVELY but we are still on it. In fact dubble v2 is looking seriously cool.

Also we have to apologise for turning off dubble v1. The truth is the old version was expensive to run, like a beautiful classic car. Don’t worry however your dubbles are not lost and as soon as v2 drops you’ll be reunited with them!

So when will v2 launch?

SOON!

I’ll leave you with this quote by Douglas Adams:

Hello dearest dubblers!

On 18th March at 1pm GMT we will be shutting down dubble temporarily.

As you know we are working hard on a new version of dubble! This isn’t just a new button here and some cool colours over there, this is a total rebuild.

As such we will need to shut down the current version of dubble.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

Simply put when you open dubble you will not be able to access any of your photos.

WHAT??!!

Don’t worry they will be safe. We need to move them over to a new system... blah blah... tech tech...

Once v2 launches they will be there when you log in waiting for you.

However if you have some precious ones you still have time to log in and save them to your phone.

SOME EXTRA EXTREMELY IMPORTANT INFO!

If you have not used dubble since December 2014 your account will not move to the new version. If you still want to use dubble in the future all you need to do is log in and use the app. You have until 20th March to do so.
