Mar 28 2026 APP 2.0.0-beta40 will be released in 7 days.
It did take a long time to have the work finished on this and it will have a major performance boost of 30-50% over 2.0.0-beta39 from calibration to integration. We extensively optimized many critical parts of APP. All has been tested to guarantee correct optimizations. Drizzle and image resampling is much faster for instance, those modules have been completely rewritten. Much less memory usage. LNC 2.0 will be released which works much better and faster than LNC in it's current state. And more, all will be added to the release notes in the coming weeks...
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.
Hi, I'm a owner of APP and did today the update. I never had this problem but now APP does not starts anymore. I restarted the pc but still the same problem. What is wrong?
Kind regards, Hubert
delete the old version or in your case delete all APP software and re install the new version, this is happening a lot at the moment, I have never had before but this solved it for me and for others 👍🏻

Hi Hubert @hubert-hautecler,
Indeed, please follow Stewart's @astroshed advice. Also check this other topic to solve it:

It seems to manifest on windows 11 for some reason. We will test the windows installer to see if we can fix it.
