MobileSheets and MobileSheetsPro v2.1.2 and MobileSheetsPro Companion v2.6.7 have been released. This update addresses an issue that has been around since the Windows 10 version was initially released: the metronome audio playback was inaccurate and on many devices would stutter or stray from the tempo.  I've struggled to fix this problem in the past, as I was utilizing Microsoft's AudioGraph library which seems to be unable to play audio at a consistent tempo. Just recently, a third party library called Superpowered was released with support for Windows 10 store apps. The superpowered library is quite powerful and I already planned on using it to add a number of powerful features to the MobileSheetsPro audio player (such as adjusting the pitch or speeding up/slowing down tracks). Well I decided to try to use this library for the metronome audio playback in the Windows 10 version. The difference was night and day. The metronome can now play back audio while maintaining the proper tempo for any period of time. As part of the licensing agreement for using superpowered, you will now see the superpowered logo at startup in the Windows 10 version. In the future (after updating the audio player in the Android app), you will see the logo there at startup as well.

This update also adds a few small features such as the ability to launch files in other applications, along with a number of important bug fixes. See the full list of changes below:

NOTE: This update changes the database which impacts compatibility with older versions. The companion app will no longer connect to older versions after being updated.
