* What's new "pop up" on App start up for first time
BUG FIXES
* Continued to enhance the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) scanning to hit more individual modules on the bus (like EABS, Stability module, etc.) and fix the erroneous timeout when a bad message is returned (some users were seeing it get to 99% and then timeout)
* Removed VIDEO OUT in CONFIG (no longer relevant with AirPlay and Mirroring in newer iOS versions)
* Analog to Digital (A2D) screen fixes for the anti-jitter setting sometimes randomly resetting or setting incorrectly if the screen scrolled or was refreshed

FEATURES
- What's new announcement
*** Changes to better support iOS 10 and new iOS devices being launched (which includes NEW GATEWAY FIRMWARE... PLEASE SEE BELOW!) ***
THIS UPDATE WILL REQUIRE FIRMWARE V1.71 or greater for the scaling features and ENHANCED DTCs detection to work! V1.70 or later is required to connect to iOS 10 devices!
iOS 9.3.5 and older devices will work fine with either the older V1.69-V1.70 or new V1.71 firmware
PLEASE SEE http://www.dashboss.com/tutorials/updating-the-gateway-firmware/ (Updating the Gateway Firmware) for tutorials on how to update your gateway to the latest firmware

Just go to CONFIG > CHANGE COLORS AND BACKGROUND > BACKGROUND (CHANGE IMAGE) ... this will bring up a "grid" of the preloaded backgrounds AND three user customizable slots for your own images (marked with a Camera Icon at the bottom of the grid). You can load the images either from your PHOTOS or your CAMERA ROLL.
