				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some users have reported that the app becomes unresponsive on the first launch after installing the update.  Here&#8217;s what&#8217;s happening:</p>
<ul>
<li>V2.70 is a substantial update and requires that the database file be upgraded on first launch after installing the update.</li>
<li>The upgrade process can take a long time (several minutes) if you have a lot of data (especially photos).</li>
<li>During the upgrade the app will appear unresponsive (because I didn&#8217;t put a progress indicator, an oversight on my part).</li>
</ul>
<p>If you wait the app will finish the upgrade process and launch normally in the future (the upgrade only has to be done once).  If the process was interrupted or does not complete after a few minutes email support@lombardodev.com for additional assistance.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Version 2.61 has just been released.  It contains some bug fixes and even a few new features (new photo roster and merging of multiple reports when sending via email).</p>
<p>Review the release notes below.</p>
<p><span id="more-396"></span>V2.61 Release Notes</p>
<p>Bug Fixes:<br />
• Zero scores don&#8217;t allow note entry.<br />
• Text labels were opaque in student status view.<br />
• Correct keyboard now displays on category creation.<br />
• Longer class names will display on the main class list.<br />
• Improved error messages and behavior for Dropbox upload failures.<br />
• Note view didn&#8217;t refresh after editing an assignment.<br />
• Improved passcode entry presentation to prevent crashing (hopefully).<br />
• Passcode entry now displays only on reactivation of the app so launching the task switcher won&#8217;t cause a passcode prompt unless the app is sent to the background.<br />
• Crash when double tapping photo button on add / edit student screen.<br />
• Crash when managing categories (rare occurrences).<br />
• Fixed photo aspect ratios on pdf reports.<br />
• Fixed crash that occurred when changing settings with a score entry screen open.</p>
<p>Improvements:<br />
• Emailed pdf reports can be merged into a single file for easier archiving and printing.<br />
• Email all students their score for an assignment directly from the score entry screen.<br />
• New photo roster has a list of all students and their names (for field trips, memorizing names, substitute teachers, etc…)<br />
• UserVoice reports app and iOS version when a support ticket is submitted.<br />
• Increased default photo resolution.<br />
• Emoji is now supported.</p>
