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 am experimenting with flatframe exposure times. APP 1.082 will do my master-flatdarks correctly, if I put two different sets with two different exp.-times in the flatdarks bin. I get two sepparate master-flatdarks. But, APP puts all flats together in one master-flat, even if there are different exp.-times inside the flats bin.
I guess, this is a bug.
CS,

Mmm, not sure it’s a bug. It uses the separate calibration files to correct the flats and since those are now well corrected, it can combine them. If you want to separate that you’d need multiple session processing or processing it separately first. Might be something to work on for clarity indeed.
