Please remember to update your App Store review/rating. We'd love to hear what you think! 2.5.0 06/30/2016 [Pro] More paper/background colors to choose from. [Pro] You can now choose a different image size when tapping 'New'. Some bug fixes and minor improvements. 2.4.0 06/16/2016 Scale and Adjust Size (Pro). It's now optional whether the app crops imported photos to fit the screen (default) or not. Improved precision when tapping buttons etc. Various improvements and bug fixes. 2.3.0 03/19/2016 Improved stability. Minor improvements and bug fixes. 2.2.1 12/18/2015 You can now export your work in a way that preserves all data (layers etc), for archiving or for importing into any of our art apps (even to/from the Mac versions). Improved stability. Fixed a bug that would sometimes cause the first touch input of the session to be ignored. Added manual chapters about importing/exporting using our native file format. Some minor improvements and bug fixes. 2.2.0 12/02/2015 The paintings now have a higher resolution (4 times as many pixels) on all devices with Retina screens. Since that means the app needs to process 4 times the data it used to, we obviously needed to make things faster. We have optimized as much as humanly possible, with assembler code and improved use of multiple CPU cores. Some parts of the app will actually run faster than before, but on some older Retina devices other parts might be a bit slower. We will continue to optimize even more, so please bear with us. The stored paintings (Work in Progress) now take up less storage space, despite the higher resolution (they will not be re-saved until you select them, so it might be a good idea to cycle through them). Added a new Eyedropper tool (Pro feature, found in the menu that appears when you tap a 2nd time on the selected color). Brush strokes initiated immediately after one another will now share the same Undo step. When the toolbar automatically hides (by painting near it) it is now gone for a slightly longer time, to facilitate painting with quickly repeated brush strokes. New animated "Please Wait" messages. After clearing the painting or one of its layers, the app now automatically switches to the last used painting tool (if needed), since there's absolutely no use for e.g. an Eraser on a blank painting. (Pro) You can now Swap the selected layer with any other layer, instead of just the layer directly above/below. Added new 'Move Layer in Stack' (Pro) feature. The painting engine has been optimized in various ways. Some improvements to make the app compatible with iPad Pro. Fixed some minor memory leaks. Fixed a bug that could make the 'Change Layer' button temporarily show the wrong icon if pressed repeatedly. Some additional minor bug fixes, improvements and optimizations. 2.1.0 11/11/2015 Redesigned user interface. There is now a Work in Progress screen (tap the easel button) where you can access all your work by tapping their respective thumbnails. In the Work in Progress screen, you can also find options and operations for the current painting and its layers, export, preferences, manual etc. More colors in the color sets/palettes. Tap twice on the eraser and you will be asked if you want to clear the painting or the current layer. Various improvements and optimizations. Improved stability. Some critical and some minor bug fixes. 2.0.0 01/07/2015 Improved speed, iOS 7 support and bug fixes. 1.1.3 10/03/2013 Faster painting tools. Some zoom-related improvements and bugfixes. A few minor improvements. 1.1.2 08/28/2013 A bug that could prevent the app from working properly in landscape mode has been fixed (thanks to everyone who reported this). Two undo bugs have been fixed. 1.1.1 08/03/2013 Zoom (pinch to zoom) and pan (2-finger drag). Reset zoom/pan (2-finger tap). Real fullscreen mode (3-finger tap). The user interface now auto-hides if you draw near it (this behavior can be switched off). Improved color options, including a new 'Pick By Name' color palette (with recent list and favorites). Lots of other minor improvements and bugfixes. 1.1.0 07/26/2013 1.0.0 05/10/2013
