ZipCode Decoder

*** Bug Report ***

Version 1.4, which fixes this issue, has been released to the Apple store.

Users of ZipCode Decoder in certain locations, such as Germany, Portugal, Poland or any location that renders decimals using a comma (such as 4,5) may see a blank result when running the program. Regions that use a period to render decimals (such as 4.5) should not see this issue. We are working on a bug fix so that regardless of the region ZipCode decoder will function correctly. If you are in a region that uses a comma, there is a temporary workaround that you can use until the bug fix is released: If you change your region format to a location that uses a decimal, (such as the UK, South Africa, Canada, USA, Botswana, etc.) ZipCode Decoder will function correctly. Please note it is NOT necessary to change the language, only the region format, for this temporary fix. Once the bug fixed has been released, ZipCode Decoder will work regardless of which region format you specify.

We regret having to suggest a temporary workaround. The bug fix is scheduled to be included in update version 1.4. Once 1.4 has been submitted to the store, Apple's review process may take up to two weeks to release the change. We regret this timeframe as well.

For those of you that elect to use the temporary workaround, please let us know if temporarily changing your region settings causes you difficulty. We regret this bug and are working to solve this as quickly as possible.
