Indigo Touch 2.0 Released

We're extremely pleased (and relieved) to finally announce the immediate availability of Indigo Touch 2.0. This is a major rewrite of the app. This has been a long (LONG) time in the making and we're happy to finally get it into our customers' hands. We published a blog post that talks in more detail about the release and its challenges. For this announcement, we'll just stick with what's new:

New Features

  • Event Log viewing, including real time updates and search capability.
  • All new icons and graphics designed specifically to match the iOS 7/8 look.
  • A new optional theme, Dark/Night, for those that prefer a darker app experience.
  • New optional tap sounds to reinforce when a control has been touched.
  • Action groups now show a brief heads-up window when tapped to notify that the action has started.
  • All iOS device screen resolutions are supported including the iPhone 6 Plus.
  • All iPads (and iPhone 6/6 Plus in landscape) use the iOS split view to show device details alongside the device list.
  • New font, Lato, included for control page designs.
  • New navigation options for control pages.

Expanded Device Support

  • All built-in device types, including fans and sensors, are fully represented and show the appropriate controls.
  • All device states, regardless of device type, are viewable.
  • Many device types have controls inline in the table list itself for faster operation.
  • Device details, such as last updated, protocol/plugin, model, address, communication status, are shown.
  • Device errors are shown in the table view.
  • Plugin devices can specify which status icon is shown.

Bug Fixes and Enhancements

  • Added optional URL parameter to the Indigo Touch URLs to control when previous views are restored. See the Indigo Touch URL documentation for details.
  • Added ability to connect to ad-hoc WiFi networks created by Macs that don't have WAN access.
  • Significantly improved UI update responsiveness.
  • Improved Control Page font rendering appearance and speed when zoomed in.
  • Improved responsiveness when switching between network types (Wi-Fi and LTE/4G/3G).
  • Improved authentication when switching network types.
  • Improved behavior of the Indigo Touch URLs.
  • Adjusted case sensitivity in image heuristics to match Indigo Touch for Web behavior.
  • Addressed frozen settings screen.
  • Fixed disappearing 3rd party keyboard issue.
  • Fixed bug that could cause incorrect toggling of multi-I/O devices on touch events.
  • Worked around a number of authentication issues.
  • Worked around a number of split view issues.
  • Worked around a slider drawing/disappearing issue.

Give it a spin, and don't forget to review it in the App Store!
