The ShapeUp Blog

This Sunday a new version of our iPhone app was released, and together with the new release we lowered the price even more, the iPhone app is now totally free!

Tuesday morning we noticed that the website was down so we called our hosting company to ask what was going on. They didn’t really know, but started working with the problems right away. 
After a while they found out that there was an error with a server and the domain ShapeUpClub.com had therefore stopped working.

The hosting company were able to solve this problem fast, BUT problems never seem to travel alone. When the first problem was solved we also noticed (and you aswell) that the site was crazy slow! 
It wasn’t even possible to load the diary page and the search-field in the iPhone app had also decided to stop working. Why?
The database behind ShapeUp Club had crashed and it took the whole day to get it back from the backup. But we did solve the problems, and now it is hopefully working properly. 

While working on fixing the database our hosting company noticed an error with the server which have made ShapeUp Club Online quite slow, now that this have been fixed the site should work a bit faster.

All these things took some time off our work with improving the website but now we can continue, and in some weeks you will see an improved diary and a faster way to add food!

We apologize for these problems and send you a huge thank you for your patience during the downtime, and please contact us if you have questions about this or anything else!

Sincerely
Martin and Tove
