Version 1.1 Released
Apple have today approved version 1.1 of the app, which is now available to download
from the App Store.
The new features in this update include:
- A new button, "View In", can open Apple
Maps, and other apps or websites, to view the area that is currently displayed. To configure
which apps and websites are enabled, see the "View In" section of the Settings screen. You can
add your own items if you know the right URL format. Let us know if there are particular apps
or websites that you'd like to see here.
- Support for GPX Routes is improved.
- Search is improved. Search patterns will now match any word in the place name, i.e.
searching for "Pukaki" will now find "Lake Pukaki". The search results list has two
new features: you can group the search results by feature type (i.e. hills,
towns, islands...), and you can limit the search to the currently-visible area of
the map.
- You can now show your photos, from the Photos app, on the map. Tap the "Photos"
button and choose whether to show all photos or just favourites. Favourites are shown in
yellow.
There are also a few bug fixes and other tweaks.
Do please let us know what you think.
