No new version, but honestly it works like a dream now, just wanted to share this with you guys.
For anyone having trouble with this, the dev just posted the following about the about shake detection. (Another tip, make sure you hold the phone upright, NOT parallel to the ground. It detects the shakes a lot better when it is upright.)
I added this to post #2 as well, and took out my tip about how to use the "shakes" because it was dated since the dev has optimized the algorithm in this latest version, which is still v0.5.1.
