What's New

This release increases the download limit by 10X (probably the top requested feature), makes the maps much more responsive to touch, and has many other improvements and bug fixes as listed below.* increased tile download limit to 100,000* downloads are now much faster (like, many times faster!)* other cached areas are now outlined when showing the download screen* map scale will now display the proper measures, regardless of latitude* fixed bug where the display track (Show On Map) would disappear on rotate or background of the app* app will now show tracks while displaying the map download screen* map caches the last 10,000 tiles you view, instead of 800* installed new OpenCycleMap source as the default* made the map faster when you have a big track, and also fixed some related display strangeness we observed on our own hike this weekend* removed "null" in table for imported waypoint without dates * fixed display of Map Layers on iPad, when you have an extra map source added from the Map Store * fixed display of Map Layers screen in landscape on iPhone * fixed a bug that could shut off the iPod while recording in the background * removed battery leak when you have the app backgrounded via the top hardware button* fixed bug where, on an iPhone, if you were showing the details for a pin on the map, and then deleted that pin on the Saved Screen, and then went back to the map screen, the app would crash * Gaia will now properly refresh when you import waypoints, whether you have been to the Saved screen or not * made the server fast and reliable for POIs and www.trailbehind.com * deleting a large number of waypoints will no longer crash, but it is slow (takes minutes on a fast iPad2) for thousands of waypoints* fix status bar when going to Details or Map Layers from Landscape mode
