May 17, 2016
This major update (on the heels of brother-app Packing Pro’s 7th anniversary) includes a big overhaul of the app’s backend coding — over 20,000 lines have been updated or rewritten. Support has been dropped for iOS 6 & 7, but devices on iOS 8 & 9 now function much more smoothly. Once again, as always, this is a totally free update.
HUGE changes that improve editing & list-making organization & efficiency:
- You can now SMART SEARCH / QUICK ADD on all Master Catalog pages (PRO feature)
- List page search is also improved - plus, it’s come out of hiding! (PRO feature)
- SORT option added to each level of the Master Catalog
- New function to capitalize or uncapitalize Master Catalog types & items
- Extra options for ‘Add List to List’ function
Other nice improvements:
- Tap page title to quickly scroll back to top, and to SEARCH on list & catalog pages (PRO feature)
- Save multi-line notes for lists & items
- More robust iCloud Drive auto-syncing (PRO feature)
- Smoother rotations & animations
- Fixed some long-standing layout & transition issues
- Added extra space for editing on iPhones
- Added extra assistance for app badge settings
- Fixed a badge bug that sometimes showed a number of remaining items, even when list was empty (thanks Johann!)
- Fixed bug that ignored ‘Disable Auto-lock’ setting on later re-launch
- Fixed some web-connection bugs
Since so many things were changed with this update, if you encounter any bugs, please let me know (and be patient & understanding). Thanks for all your feedback & support, and stay tuned for more updates!

And more:

- Fixed Chinese translation issue for users around the world
- Fixed general translation issues with content on Info page

This update is all about iOS 8 and the two new iPhones. I’ve optimized the layout to take advantage of all the extra screen space on the iPhone 6 & iPhone 6 Plus. In addition, I’ve:

I’m very sorry if these bugs caused you any frustration, and thanks for pointing them out to me.
For the next update, do you have any suggestions for extra icons for categories, people or bags you’d like to see, or any other enhancements? Feel free to email me some ideas!
