SUPPORT
Setting up your rates is probably the most complicated thing in the app, so if you need help, PLEASE contact me. There is a link to my support page from iTunes and from the app itself. Alternatively, visit my website at http://grahamhaley.co.uk.
What's new in Version 2.6
For those of you with an iPhone 4, I have added a setting to turn on the rear-facing torch when entering readings. This should be very useful if your meters are in a dark cupboard! Also if you were thinking of buying one of the many Torch applications, you can now save your money instead!! :-)
Improved the way you set up your meter type. It now includes the number of readings you submit to your supplier and the labels to use for each one (e.g. Day and Night). Simply select the meter type in the settings.
Fixed a bug where dual fuel price comparisons weren't working properly when accessed from your gas meter.
Fix a couple of minor UI issues on the iPad with the iOS 4.2.1 release.
Other minor tweaks and bug fixes.
NOTE: if you have the backup feature, I recommend taking a backup and exporting this to a computer before installing. Also if you like the changes, please consider leaving a review on iTunes! Thanks!!
