New: iCloud Backup. Wallets are now backed up to iCloud whenever addresses are added or deleted. iCloud Backup can be disabled in Settings. Backups are only accessible to the iCloud user, and wallets with a password are encrypted before transmission. See Settings > iCloud Backup for more.
Changed: The Exchanges Listing has been removed because the data is no longer freely available. Bitcoin exchange rate quotes are now limited by the data source to 100 updates per day, per IP. Alternate data sources are being investigated.
Minor fixes and improvements.

This updates focuses on optimizing transactions fees for fastest confirmation at the lowest price.
bitWallet now calculates transaction fees based on current network conditions and suggests higher fees for fast confirmations and lower fees for slower confirmation. The default fees confirm transactions within an hour or less, and can be overridden for each transaction in the Fees view. For more details and setting defaults see Settings > Fees & Confirmation.
Currently trending transaction fees can be monitored on the Bitcoin status view (accessible by tapping the status bar on the bottom of most views). Fees are shown in milli-bitcoin per kilobyte. For a typical small transaction of 225 bytes divide by 4 to estimate fees for the transaction.
New Bitcoin addresses are now generated as compressed keys instead of uncompressed to minimize transaction sizes and fees. Compressed private keys begin with the letter “K” or “L”, instead of the number “5” for uncompressed keys.
bitWallet now downloads and processes data faster than before.
Minor improvements and fixes.
Note: Use of Touch ID may be turned off after the update and you will need to turn it on in Settings. Please be sure to know your wallet password before updating!
As always, thanks for your kind donations that help fund development of this app.
