Excellent iPhone email app Sparrow has pushed out its latest update, with a bunch of user interface improvements. But the company has also given more details about its plans to introduce push email, rather than users having to open the app to get new messages. The company had been seeking ‘VoIP privilege’ from Apple to do this cheaply, backed by its users. “Unfortunately, Apple has confirmed that they are not willing to do any exception to the rule and that Sparrow will NOT be granted with the privilege,” says the company on its blog. “This means we’ll have to do Push on our side and that it will be integrated as a yearly subscription into Sparrow’s future update.”
