To help us keep Online Play in the free version of Pocket Tanks, the free version now includes ads in the online game lobby to help pay for the increased server costs. Allowing free users to play online quadrupled our server bandwidth, and it continues to rise every day. This will help us keep the online service free for everyone. And as always, there are no ads when you upgrade to Deluxe. Thank you for understanding.

This update also adds the ability to replay your Online games, in fast or slow motion, and to take and share screenshots easily via Facebook or Twitter.
iOS compatibility changes: Pocket Tanks v2.0 is compatible with the latest generation iOS devices, and iOS 7.0+. Consequently, this update no longer supports iOS versions before 5.0.
