We updated the app to use the iOS 7 SDK as the base (and added some iOS 8 specifics as well). This allowed us to give the app a modern feel, including using split views on devices with larger screens to optimize screen real estate usage. We also upgraded the look and feel of the graphics and controls in the app to make it a first-class iOS app. IT2 now feels great running alongside all your other iOS 7\/8 apps.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>New Features<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Event Log viewing, including real time updates and search capability.<\/li>\n<li>All new icons and graphics designed specifically to match the iOS 7\/8 look.<\/li>\n<li>A new optional theme, Dark\/Night, for those that prefer a darker app experience.<\/li>\n<li>New optional tap sounds to reinforce when a control has been touched.<\/li>\n<li>Action groups now show a brief heads-up window when tapped to notify that the action has started.<\/li>\n<li>All iOS device screen resolutions are supported including the iPhone 6 Plus.<\/li>\n<li>All iPads (and iPhone 6\/6 Plus in landscape) use the iOS split view to show device details alongside the device list.<\/li>\n<li>New font, Lato, included for control page designs.<\/li>\n<li>New navigation options for control pages.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-26943 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/automatedhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/indigo-touch-app-v2-ipad.png?resize=512%2C352&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Indigo Touch App v2.0\" width=\"512\" height=\"352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/automatedhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/indigo-touch-app-v2-ipad.png?w=512&amp;ssl=1 512w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/automatedhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/indigo-touch-app-v2-ipad.png?resize=300%2C206&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Expanded Device Support<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>All built-in device types, including fans and sensors, are fully represented and show the appropriate controls.<\/li>\n<li>All device states, regardless of device type, are viewable.<\/li>\n<li>Many device types have controls inline in the table list itself for faster operation.<\/li>\n<li>Device details, such as last updated, protocol\/plugin, model, address, communication status, are shown.<\/li>\n<li>Device errors are shown in the table view.<\/li>\n<li>Plugin devices can specify which status icon is shown.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.indigodomo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">indigodomo.com<\/a> \u00a0: \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/WebObjects\/MZStore.woa\/wa\/viewSoftware?id=305247971&amp;mt=8\" target=\"_blank\">Indigo Touch App<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Want More?<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/ottomate\">Follow us<\/a>\u00a0on Twitter,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/AutomatedHomeUK\" target=\"_blank\">Like us<\/a>\u00a0on Facebook, or subscribe to our\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds2.feedburner.com\/automatedhome\">RSS feed<\/a>.
