    Just amazing. Maybe we can get the ability to upload pictures using the app, would be much easier than going to a PC everytime I need to upload something.

    Not sure why it crashes when opening this app. And yes, I did select the correct speech language.

    Was great before recent update. The old live tile worked fine on my WP 7.8. I really thought the live tile made the app for me.

    The fix for the crash issue is there: http://www.wpcentral.com/now-available-windows-phone-central-app-v4 All what you need to do is to make sure that you have installed the speech language on your phone. Long press on the windows logo touch button, click setting, select your language (download it if needed), then exit. Try to run the program, it will work.

    This was the first app I purchased after getting my 920 in November and it is a great app to have, updates are being rolled out constantly to improve the app. Great work Jay!!!!
