| App List jumps to top when enabling/disabling an app | Not an SDK issue | 1.0.0 | ||||
| Some apps have repeating notifications that can be very annoying | Not an SDK issue | 1.0.0 | 1.0.1 | One such app is TweetDeck while sending an update. Best workaround for 1.0.0 is to ignore the app, at the expense of none of the app's notifications being spoken. |
