Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual
We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.
Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.

I have been experiencing very slow integration times using the demo version. Yesterday it took just a few min. short of 3hrs to do 100 L, 30 D, 30 bias frames. The fit files were 40m. Using a late 2015 iMac, quad core I7 4G, 24G ram, 8g ram set for APP use. Is this slow integration normal or am I doing something incorrectly? Thanks

A bit difficult to judge as it’ll depend on the settings you used, but a 100 subs with LNC etc. on might take that time yes. APP isn’t as fast as some other packages, but this is also due to the more complex algorithms it uses. This is intentional as it produces better data.
