 Posted: Sat Jun 11, 2016 8:50 pm Post subject: Any update on a new version for iOS? |
 |
|
Whilst I have no issue with the current version of the app, it works just as I need it to.
You are getting hammered 2:1 on the App Store with 1 star ratings because of the lack of development and supposedly poor support, mainly because some individuals can't get their heads round the complex subscription model  and updating the database.
We have heard much about Apple threatening to pull the app from the store and the resultant halt in development of the iOS version. Then we hear they accepted an updated version with MPH KPH conversion  and that a new version will be released soon... I think that was mentioned over a year ago now!
Please give your iOS user base some update on what is actually happening with the app. Is a new version in development or has development been abandoned?
Yours a satisfied user, regardless of black bands, annoying pings and an outdated UI. |

Apologies for the lack of response. There's nothing to report at the moment. Sorry!

| Does that mean that there is nothing going on about the iThing version? |

If the other reviews are as inaccurate as the one for CamerAlert, those people who rely on a review running to a piddling little paragraph featuring varied text rather than substance, will have only themselves to blame for any disappointment.

It's working fine here. What, exactly, is broken about it?

Not trying to put words in andy's mouth, but it could be that stupid zooming right in so the road fill the screen broken thing that has been reported multiple times but seems not to attract any fix, or even comment, from the PGPSW devs. to which he is referring  |

| Just installed the beta for iOS 10 on a 6s Plus. Get a warning when I launch the app that it is not 64bit compatible. |

Perhaps that's the reason for the dev silence about a new iOS version... They're building a 64bit version  After all Apple did warn developers back in April 2015 of the 64bit change, so they won't be just ignoring it, will they |

There's also a problem with volume control (Android) that has been reported numerous times, but again no response has been forthcoming. I have always run CA through my phone's internal speaker but it is so loud on my Galaxy Note 4 that I have given up using CA, and now rely on the less than accurateTomTom Go database. Whilst it isn't as comprehensive, at least my ears don't bleed whenever I get warnings.

Thanks, all, for bringing Android into an iOS thread!
