Several users have contacted me today with a very unusual problem: when they attempt to purchase MobileSheets off the Microsoft Store, the page refreshes and nothing happens. It turns out that the solution to this problem is just to log out of the Microsoft Store and then log back in. Then you will be able to purchase MobileSheets. Hopefully this post will reach some of the users encountering problems.

There have been some reviews posted on the Microsoft Store by users requesting help, but those users have switched on a setting in the Microsoft Store indicating that they don’t want to receive review responses. I am hoping these users may decide to check the Zubersoft website and will see this message. If you need help and are posting a review on the Microsoft Store, either enable review responses or contact me directly at support@zubersoft.com (which is preferred in either case), otherwise I will be unable to assist you.

I’m happy to announce that the Windows 10 version of MobileSheets is currently going through the approval process on the Microsoft App store and will be available for testing soon. After the app is successfully published, a link will be provided for anyone that is interested in beta testing. The beta test will last for the next 3-4 weeks, after which the app will be made publicly available.
I also want to let users know that I’m going to be pulling the original MobileSheets for Android (the version released in 2011 with a green icon) off of the app store starting January 1, 2017. The newer MobileSheetsPro (which has a blue icon) is going to be the only Android version available after that. I do not have the bandwidth to support the older version, and it no longer supports the latest Android OS versions. After the app is pulled off the app store, users will no longer be able to download the app. I’m hoping that removing it from the app store will reduce confusion for new users who should be purchasing MobileSheetsPro.

Many users are updating their devices to Android 6.0, and they find that they can no longer load files in MobileSheetsPro that are saved on the removable SD card. The reason for this is that Google changed the paths to removable SD cards in Android 6.0 and this causes the file paths stored in MobileSheetsPro to no longer work. The good news is that MobileSheetsPro can easily fix this for you by performing the following steps:
MobileSheetsPro will detect all incorrect file paths, search for the actual file locations, and then fix the paths in the database. This same dialog can also be used to update file paths if a folder is renamed or moved, so it’s a very useful tool for users that manage their own files.

With the release of MobileSheetsPro version 1.5.1, every icon in the application has been replaced with sharper, higher resolution icons. Most of these were pulled from Google’s material design icon library so that they maintain a consistent look and feel. Others were redesigned from scratch to try and match the look and feel of material design icons. I believe the new icons are easier to see, more aesthetically pleasing and more intuitive with their meaning. Many, such as the new icon used to indicate when a song contains an audio file, is a huge improvement over the old in my opinion, and provides an extra level of polish in the application. I’m really looking forward to hearing feedback from users on all the changes.
