2.3
2020-09-26
It's been a long while but Entropy 2.3 is here with both some important changes and some fun changes!
Entropy 2.3 is the iOS 14 update!
Check out what's new:
-Entropy now has Widgets! Lots of them too! I encourage you to check them out for yourself and pick which ones you like best but as a quick overview, there are two types:
- Episode Picker: Episodes generate every 20 minutes, the widget can be tapped to get more episode info (action depends on your preferences). For the Favorite Show Widget, edit the widget for yourself from the Home Screen to pick which show is used!
- Show Buttons: Features your top 2 or 4 shows on the widget as buttons that can bring you into the app to an episode from that show
-To get more episode info on the main view, you now just hold down on the episode. For favoriting, just double tap.
-Item Picker has been added and put behind the Dice icon on the main view with the Number Generator. You can add items there and then tap the top box to pick an item from the list.
-Moved filter setting to main view with a new icon and color changing to indicate which filter you’re using.
-Presets have been removed. Your show list may reset to default with this change but this should only happen once and shouldn’t affect any other preferences.
-Added the rest of Rick and Morty Season 4
-Added Brooklyn Nine-Nine Season 7
-Some icons have been moved around and changed. Notably, the main view now has two additional buttons on the side of the screen and the Episode Info window has 3 buttons below it for sharing and searching the episode, and learning about the API.
-Changed the font to the system font.
-We’re looking into better methods for iCloud Syncing so there may be some inconsistencies. This shouldn’t affect you unless you regularly reinstall the app.
-Entropy has a newly supported URL format. This will allow Entropy’s widgets to give you episode info right away, instead of making you do that. (Format: “entropy://EP{showCode}-{seasonNum(xx)}{episodeNum(xx)}”.
-Entropy is now using the TVDb API for episode information. We’re hoping this will provide more reliable results.
That's everything for this one! Thanks again for your support!
2.2

Happy New Year! Starting the year off with Entropy 2.2! Take a look at the changes:
-Presets are here! You can now have multiple sets of shows for different occasions or people! Just make a new preset from the Manage Shows page and reorder your new preset! Then you can switch between presets with the new button on the main screen (only visible with more than one preset).
-Added Season 4 of Rick and Morty
-Added Season 8 of Letterkenny
-Improved Google Search queries
-Fixed bug where shows would not update properly when saved by the user.
-Improved loading times
2.1
2019-11-23
Entropy is back again with FIVE new shows and a few new features as well!
New Shows:
-Seinfeld
-Big Mouth
-Letterkenny
-Love, Death, and Robots
-I Think You Should Leave
Other features:
-The Hide/Reorder Shows page now features add/remove buttons to make adding shows much quicker!
-Users that use the IMDB information by swiping down on an episode will now find a share button in the top right corner of that window. This will allow you to share an episode quickly with friends, family, or anyone else in need of a laugh or two! The episode name is accompanied by a Google Search link for that episode so the recipient can quickly start watching the episode!
-The Episode Lists menu title now changes based on what show/season you're in!
-The Google Search algorithm has been changed to search for the episode name instead of the episode number. This should increase the accuracy of those searches!
-If you have to reinstall Entropy at some point, Entropy will automatically put your preferred App Icon back on the first launch for you!
-Removed Chuck from the list of shows
There are also now Share and Rate buttons in the Settings menu so you can tell your friends about Entropy right from the app! :)
Thanks again for using the app!
