And in case you missed it, <a target='_blank' href='https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ocdevel.habitrpg'>Android</a> & <a target='_blank' href='https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/habitrpg/id689569235?mt=8'>iOS</a> Apps are out!

Hello my Habiteers! I have some amazing news to share with you, it's huge!
Has Habit ever crashed for you? (Joke). Well we <u><a target='_blank' href="http://habitrpg.tumblr.com/post/59104876969/website-issues-what-were-doing">re-wrote the website</a></u> from the ground up
to conquor those critical bugs once and for all (more from Tyler in a bit). If you haven't seen me for a while (due to a bug in the old site), be sure to catch up with me on the right side of the screen for any missed news. Importantly:
They're open source, so help us make them awesome. As for the rewrite: not all features are yet ported, but don't worry - you're still getting drops and streak-bonuses in the background, even if you can't see them yet.
We'll be working hard to bring in all the missing features. And if you're not already, be sure to follow our updates on <a href="http://habitrpg.tumblr.com/" target="_blank">Tumblr</a> (there are some fun member highlights recently). One more thing: if you are a Veteran of the old site, I have granted you a Veteran Wolf! Check your inventory :)
We desparately need your help porting <a href='http://goo.gl/jYWTwl' target='_blank'>the rest of the features</a>, and polishing off the bugs. <a target='_blank' href='http://habitrpg.wikia.com/wiki/Contributing_to_HabitRPG'>Read this guide</a> to getting started.
Timezone + custom day start issues fixed, your dailies should now reset properly and in your own timezone. (This was vexing <strong>Android</strong> users particularly). If you're still experiencing issues, <a target='_blank' href='https://github.com/HabitRPG/habitrpg-mobile/issues/73#issuecomment-22960877'>chime in here</a>.
API developers, the above means that <strong>cron</strong> is automatically run for your users! Weee, they no longer have to log into the website to reset their dailies!
The Mobile Apps are out! <a target='_blank' href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/habitrpg/id689569235">iOS app</a> and <a target='_blank' href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ocdevel.habitrpg">Android</a>. There's a bug with Android 2.3, <a target='_blank' href='https://github.com/HabitRPG/habitrpg-mobile/issues/85'>follow the progress here</a>.
