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.
Dear Mabula,
APP is GREAT! I love it and get fabulous results. But there is one point that I really would like to have fixed.
You might consider it a minor issue but I swear it is not!
I often work in APP from a remote computer. This computer has no speakers. When I forget to switch off the "terminator bell" in the configuration after each start of APP the bell rings at home every time when something was done by APP - and I do not notice it because I can not hear it!
You might think "so what!?" but my wife who works in her home office is frequently disturbed very much by this sound and has to send me a mail or call me by phone to have me turn of that bell. She really does not like that....
Changing and saving the configuration to have the bell switched off by default was Ok in the beginning but does not work since one of the first updates APP released. I imagine it should be very easy and not much effort to repair that in one of the next releases. So, Mabula please can you take care of this to give me more "peace" at home?
Cheers
Pete
Any issue that is really annoying you is big enough for us. Mabula will make this configurable in a future version, I have no road-map for that unfortunately.
Thanks Vince. Pete's wife is known to be an angel, so anything that makes her life better is effort well spent!
Ok, so I actually never turned it off and didn't even realize it was a setting. 😉 It seems it does work when you turn it off, the selection is however not saved. Which we need to address obviously.
try this ?
