Improved internal memory configuration (lower ! memory usage), fixed beta45 startup issue, fixed Set Save Directory & 2-panel mosaics.
May 27 2026 APP 2.0.0-beta45 has been released !
Fully Multi-Threaded LNC, many improvements for the registration engine, platform upgrade, and further tuning of internal memory consumption and memory release back to OS.
Apr 14 2026: Google Pay, Apple Pay & WeChat Pay added as payment options
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.
there are a few people on the interwebs that seem to use bayer/cfa drizzle on their data even if their data is well sampled.Â
is there a general benefit? Crisper pictures?

I wouldn't think so, at least the idea is indeed (with well drizzled data), that the algorithm can fill in "missing" data and thereby make stars round instead of square. It may introduce some extra noise actually.
Hi Andreas @yellowhorsehead,
Like Vincent says, using (Bayer/X-Trans) drizzle instead of data interpolation/resampling can result in nicer star shapes, so that is one argument for it for sure.
But, drizzle in itself is a noise injector per definition, so the result will be more noisy compared to resampling/interpolation... so that is an argument against it. To counter noise wit drizzle, make sure that you don't use too small droplet sizes 😉
