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 both iMac and Macbook air and  would like to use Macs iCloud to store the current image being processed. The iCloud Alias is visible in the finder window on both devices but I am unable to locate it when I open APP. It seems that I have missed a setting somewhere as I am unable to find any way to make iCloud visible within APP.

Hi @lawrence-gray,
I personally have never used iCloud, but I wll try to check this. I was just updating my macbook to the newest MacOS version to test some other things directly related to MacOS,
I guess for now, it's easiest to simply store the image locally on your drive and then save it to iCloud from MacOS, that should not be a problem I think ?
I do know that APP needs any drive to be mounted first, otherwise APP will not see it on MacOS. Probably MacOS is mounting iCloud dynamically only when needed and that would explain why APP isn't seeing it at the moment.
Please let me know if you need further assistance.
Kind regards,
Mabula
Thanks for your reply Mabula,Â
I am wondering why APP can see Google Drive but not iCloud Drive.

Lawrence.
Correct, I can't find the iCloud drive either so I think Mabula is right that this drive isn't seen by the system as a regular one.
