What's New in v7.01 ?

1) You can now lock the Training button and the Scoring On/Off button from the User Interface section of the Settings screen to prevent fat fingers accidentally pressing them.

Bug Fixes in 7.01

1) Some data in the previous version caused the App Store to incorrectly state that the App contains English, French, German, Italian, Japanese and Spanish language support when in fact it only contains English.
2) If you played Spider or Poker Squares in landscape orientation then the empty card stacks overlapped each other. Now they look much better.
3) In Cribbage Squares, a Flush was only scored when all five cards were the same suit for 5 points whereas the correct rules should score 4 points if the four cards excluding the Starter are the same suit. This has been corrected.

Bug Fixes in 6.00

1) If you've been playing the free version of Solitaire City then your scores, statistics, custom backgrounds and card backs will now all be transferred automatically to this Ad-Free version so you won't lose any valuable data (iOS 8 and newer). Just make sure you download the free Solitaire City 5.10 version and open it once before playing this Ad-Free version to transfer you scores over.
2) If you play with the scoring/timer turned off then you'll now be asked whether you want to play another game after a win rather than being taken back to the hi-scores screen which never made much sense if you're not playing for points.

Bug Fixes

1) Sometimes Scorpion Rule 3 would think the game was blocked when valid moves were still available.
2) If you changed your device orientation while playing Spider, Baker's Dozen or Double Klondike then the translucency in the center of the empty spaces disappeared.
3) On an iPhone, if you tried to select an image for a custom background from your Photo Album while in landscape orientation, the display would flip back to portrait making it impossible to select a landscape image.

Bug Fixes in v4.31

1) If you launched the App in landscape mode on an iPhone 6 plus running iOS 9 then the result wasn't pretty.

2) There were problems moving cards on iPads and iPhone 6 Plus when this happened.

What's New in v4.22

1) Moved the in-game Settings icon from the right hand side of the toolbar to the left because some people have said that they accidentally press it when they mean to press the Show Move button.

Bug Fixes in v4.22

1) If Game Center was disabled in the Settings, then Show Achievements was greyed out but so was Sound Theme.
2) On the Sound Themes page, you could tap on the message about creating a Custom Sound Theme and it would display a check mark next to it as though you had selected it as a Theme.
3) If you chose a different card set while playing Spider or Double Klondike on a retina iPad then it would forget which card set you'd selected when you re-opened the App.
4) Sometimes the in-game buttons at the top of the screen would be pushed down the screen too far after the green in-call status bar had appeared.
5) If you won a game of FreeCell Rule 1 to get the "First FreeCell" achievement then you would be awarded the "FreeCell Freak" achievement too.
6) It wasn't possible to unlock the Klondike Champ achievement.

1) There was a large gap between the new in-game Settings button and Show Move button in Left Handed mode.
2) Using a right swipe gesture to close the new in-game Settings screen could get messy. This swipe has now been disabled.

6) The sound would sometimes cut out after a phone call.

1) The game now works on iOS 8.
2) Removed the game's Landscape/Portrait Lock feature for iOS 8 users as Apple has their own orientation lock in iOS now. Please swipe up from the bottom of the screen to reveal Apple's Control Center panel and lock the orientation from there.
3) If you take a photo on an iPad to create a custom background or card back then the camera is now full screen instead of in a window. This helps with taking landscape background images.

1) Added 5 new card sets for iPhones and iPod touch.
2) You can now choose a different card back and change its colour from the Settings screen or use a photo as a card back.
3) Made the touch area on the button bars larger so starting a New game etc is easier.
4) In Three Shuffles and a Draw, you can now draw after any shuffle, not just the final one.
5) The number of games won in Klondike Rules 1 to 6 might have gone crazy if you updated to 4.01 from an older version.
