iPhone 2.1 Update Announcement

Swim Guide, Swim Guide Editor

Posted: October 31, 2012 at 2:33 pm

The new version of Waterkeeper Swim Guide for iPhone has been accepted by Apple and is now available on the App Store! iPhone & iPod users, please be sure you go to your app store and update Waterkeeper Swim Guide.

Waterkeeper Swim Guide 2.1 is now optimized for iOS 6 and iPhone 5 (phones with taller screens). Other upgrades include:

New beach page layout takes advantage of larger iPhone 5 screens.
Each beach now names the Waterkeeper organization responsible for “managing” that beach information and links to the local Waterkeeper website.
View even more beaches at once with new map clusters – you can see WAY more beaches at one time with this new cluster system. Check it out.
Pull to refresh the beach list – if you look at beach on the app, you can now force it to check for a new status update by pulling down on the beach list.
Improved photo viewing (you can swipe between different photos instead of having to back out to the main screen).

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns drop us a line at reports [at] theswimguide.org.
