Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?
This update brings a comprehensive internal modernization to Custom Boards, focusing on enhanced editing performance, memory efficiency, and seamless system integration for a smoother overall experience.
Performance and Stability
Canvas Rendering: Optimizations to the underlying layout mapping engine ensure your canvas templates align perfectly across all iPad models, keeping your absolute coordinate text, shapes, and symbol placements completely locked in.
Memory Management: Eliminated hidden internal memory leaks and retain cycles when browsing or searching extensive symbol libraries, resulting in faster load times and increased app stability during long editing sessions.
Core Refactoring: Streamlined the internal code framework to modern object property standards to ensure smoother background operation and future-proof reliability.
Sharing and Connectivity
Native Share Sheet Integration: Overhauled the app recommendation flow to use the native iOS Share Sheet. You can now effortlessly recommend the app directly through iMessage, WhatsApp, Slack, or any of your preferred communication apps instead of being forced into a legacy email template.
Universal Links: Modernized social connectivity channels, allowing support panels to directly open external community platforms seamlessly using iOS Universal Links.
