Bug fixed where alarm would not always play in background.

Update icon by adding FREE stamp.
Minor bug fixes.

New App Icon (Similar to PRO version of this app, but with FREE stamp)

This update receives all the bug fixes and "some" features that the PRO version has received over the past year.

Compiled with the latest Apple XCode to support the latest SDK. If you have an old phone you might want to keep the previous version of this app instead of updating.

This free version still does not support background-mode for when charging your phone. This should make sense because when charging your phone you should not use your phone, just keep the app running on the screen. There is a lock icon (top-right) to dim the display. If you lock the phone while charging the app will not run, until you unlock your phone.

Background mode is only supported when you're not charging your phone. This should make sense because when you're not charging your phone you don't want to be inside the app.
When not charging your phone, you can lock the phone if you want, just don't kill the app. The alarm will notify you when you're battery reaches the low threshold.

After the alarm has alerted you, and you want to use the app again, you need to go into the app and make sure the status says ON for the threshold you want (high or low), or just ON which means both.

The PRO version of the app supports background mode in both modes, while charging and also when not charging. Just check the status after each alert to make sure the next alert will work.

Other features of the app stays unchanged. This update is mainly bug fixes and the app icon.

Multi language mode in the works. Please email me your language if you need it first, also translations of all the text in the app would speed things up!

Background mode is back, but only for the low threshold alarm. Background mode is not advised as it uses more cpu power and thus more battery. Please dim your display instead.
