NEW TO 5.6:
- Improved VoiceOver for calculations, especially for iPhone/iPod users.
- Improved VoiceOver for the recording studio, especially for iPad users.
- Fixed a rare bug that affected the inbuilt voice after switching to other audio apps.
NEW TO 5.5:
Changes to the % button, so that it now recognises when it is used in the context of an addition or subtraction.
Eg 1. '200 + 5%' is shorthand for '200 plus 5% of 200' and is therefore calculated by first determining 5% of 200, then adding 200. The result is 210.
Eg 2. '200 - 5%' is shorthand for '200 subtract 5% of 200' and is therefore calculated by first determining 5% of 200, then subtracting from 200. The result is 190.
