Here’s another one we get many questions about.
When Theme it was launched we planned on releasing free themes within 6-8 weeks. How naive of us we never could expect the impact that Theme it currently has on the iCommunity and the traffic it generates. As some know, we already had a couple server overloads, first was on launch day and another happened after a major update of the app. We have fixed these issues and now have a very stable platform for our users.
But here’s the thing with free themes. THEY WILL GENERATE A LOT MORE TRAFFIC, probably more then paid themes currently do…. and that means one thing : We can’t do it, or at least not now.
There many reasons why this can’t happen at the moment. There’s a technical aspect, we would need a least other dedicated servers. There a financial issue, free themes are… well free but all the rest on our part isn’t free, servers, manpower to take care of the themes distribution, user support, etc… making this simply impossible for us.

Of course we want it to happen, that’s why we included that button in the app at first, and we’ll keep looking for solutions to be able to make this come true as we know that many, many users would love a nice place to get amazing free themes…. so just stick around and i’ll update this post whenever something new on this subject comes up.

I hope this will help clarify the situation and really make you understand that we want these free themes as much as you do, but we can’t compromise the rest of the app for them.
Take care.

For now the free themes section will be replaced by the contest winners section where you can grab amazing packages from the winners of our contests

*UPDATE 2 : Well since April 5, version 1.1.8 is officially available on our repo (www.themeitapp.com/repo) and works fine on 4.3.1 and now most themers are updating their themes to also make then compatible with the most recent iOS release.

note : use the Compatibility option in the application  Themes > Sort Order Menu, that way you’ll instantly see what themes are compatible with you device

*UPDATE 1 : Today we sent out a beta version of the app that has been running smoothly on 4.3 here. As soon as we get confirmation it works for everyone we’ll prepare the public update.

The devs finally got their brand new devices today and are working like crazy to bring 4.3.1 compatibility.
It should be made available soon (now that they can actually do all the testing in local)

I’ll keep updating this post as soon as i get more feedback from them
