A new FrostWire for Android is out, start or restart your FrostWire for an automatic update. If you have not installed it yet, then go right now to frostwire.com/android and install it on your android device.
This new version gets ready for the fast growth of the first peer to peer mobile network in the planet. Now your FrostWire will limit itself to a number of connections to guarantee optimal performance and use less resources. Even though you’ll be connected to about 30 other peers, your searches will reach the entire network in less than a second thanks to the power of peer to peer algorithms.
FrostWire 0.4.7 features an even smaller installer (only 357Kb) and it improves the user experience by taking care of more details and improved networking core.
