What's New in the Latest Version 2.0.1
Last updated on Sep 25, 2015
Old Versions
This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.
Fixes a crash on iOS 9. This was due to changes to the behaviour when AAC audio files were decoded. As a quick fix I have switched to uncompressed mono audio files.
Hopefully stereo samples will be back in the next version!
