This was originally mentioned in a message at the end of January, but that thread never went anywhere. I submitted an updated app to Google Play today and noticed the warning message myself for the first time. It seems we have a few more months to prepare for this, but can't recall seeing

Jacque has a handy tool called Airlaunch that allows you to deliver builds over the air (via web server). [https://livecode.com/products/thirdparty/hyperactivesw/airlaunch-1-0-0/] Another option is to save the standalone and install directly via the Devices panel in Xcode.

Now that you mention this, I see the same issue with 2 of my apps in the iOS store that were built using LC 9.5. There is one item just "past" the bottom of the datagrid that you can only see if you swipe beyond the end, but as soon as you let go it snaps back to showing the 2nd to last

What is your virtual device? I don't have this problem any longer with Xcode 11.1 (required for LC 9.6dp1), but in older versions the default iPad was an iPad Air and the default iPhone was an iPhone 5 (or 5s?) and the Simulator wouldn't fully launch. In the device Simulator you can launch

Is there a way to determine if an iOS device has dark mode ("Dark Appearance") enabled from within a LiveCode app? The inherited default text color of a field is black, but is changed to white by the OS when this mode is enabled (on a white background in this case which makes it appear

I learned HyperCard in K-12 during the '90s and moved to LiveCode a couple years ago. My coding efficiency and strategies have developed considerably over my past couple projects. I don't make a new card for everything, but easily end up with a dozen cards in a stack for most projects.

"2. have more images that fit the package -- last time I check it was 100MB, for iOS." I assume you are referring to the maximum app size when downloading from the App Store, in which case that limit has been removed with iOS 13.

Something seems to have changed in the datagrid code, because I have an old iOS device with a version of my software from over a year ago and it scrolls fine so I feel like the issue is with my scroller and DG2 (this stack pre-dates that change). I tried Ralph's suggestion of adding 20px,

mergLA will handle Face ID the same as Touch ID for iOS: no extra code needed. It would be REALLY cool if this would work on macOS too so you could use it on MacBook Pros since it's using the same calls. https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=18742 --Andrew Bell From: Dan Friedman
