Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?
- Added an error message when you try to send a mail from within the app and the Apple Mail app is not configured.
- Added an mail button to the system log viewer to mail the log to the support if Apple Mail app is configured.
- Changed the function of the share button in the system log viewer to call the actual share system and not sending a mail directly. So you can share the log with the support in the way you prefer most.
- If you have enabled the setting to clear old and remote tracks, it will now only clear tracks older than 24 hours, independent of distance.
- There are now some safety features that can warn you about unexpected app crashes, app terminated by iOS or missing location updates. Please see Settings->Administration->Safety and the help there. Please make sure you have read and understood the implications of using these functions.
