What's New
A new release with many new features! Most impressive is the 'snapshot' functionality, which enables screenshots from a camera if a sensor is activated. Now you can actually see who was ringing your doorbell. The latest snapshot is visible in the sensorlog and automatically opens if you tap on a notification of the same sensor. Popular requests have also been added: hostname support for cams, 640x480 resolution and a fullscreen camera feed. Finally, a French localisation is added and many 'views' now have a 'help-menu' that can be activated by sliding the navigation bar to the left.
