1.6.9
2014-11-25
For iOS9 Users: If you are experiencing crashes when loading ArtRage and you have set it to detect a Wacom stylus please go to the Settings app on your iPad and turn off stylus detection for the product. We are currently preparing a big product update and a solution to this problem will be included.
If you are updating to 1.6 from 1.5 or earlier, please shut down ArtRage fully and restart your iPad before using it the first time. This helps to avoid speed problems in first time setup that could cause ArtRage to shut down before fully opening the first time you launch it, and makes sure application preferences are clean for the new version.
Please Note:
If you experience a problem with ArtRage, let us know using our support link (we're not able to respond to issues listed in reviews here), or the ArtRage Online link in the product itself. We're happy to work through problems with you and in most cases we can quickly resolve the issue.
Speed issues or crashing can usually be resolved quickly and easily by closing parked apps and rebooting your iPad, we provide instructions in our Forums, but in other cases we can use crash logs generated on your iPad to track down the exact cause of a problem and produce a fix. Many of the fixes listed in this update came about thanks to users who had problems getting in touch with us, so don't hesitate to get in touch.
