Augmented Earth now on the App Store!

Tue Jul 11 11:57:18 EDT 2017

Hi Lagi,

Thank you for your feedback!
I have changed it so that the initial mode does exactly what you said - it has two options that allow the user to choose to create a new user or sign in.

From there it only reveals the fields and buttons that are appropriate for whether the user is logging in, logged in, creating a new user, or editing their information.

I am going to update the app on iTunes on Thursday. The core of the app seems to be strong, but the user interface clearly was lacking :(

I spent a lot more time working on figuring out the 3D map - I am going to make the interface smooth before I do any promotion.

I think we have to require using the current password to change the password, to prevent hacking.

I made notes of you other observations as well.

Thank you :)
