Pythonista 1.6 Beta
-
@techteej Oh, thanks. I will use it.

Hi, I am very interested in try 1.6 beta.
Especially I would like to access BLE using Pythinista.
If slots are available yet, I will send you a email.
Thanks.

@omz, 160036 will expire in 3 days according to Test Flight. Will there be a 160037 by then?

I just signed for Beta 1.6, I hope there are still seats available, thanks

Just wanted to report that xCode 7.2 and iOS 9.2 working with the existing template and beta. (Maybe we should have a dedicated upgrades thread)

[insert bad joke]

@Tizzy , he had some weird posts. Not sure if he was trying to advertise or what. Was strange. But I reported the posts, as I am sure others did also.
-
I know this thread has been knocking around a bit now but I'd be interested in trying out the features if slots are still available?
-
@omz said in another thread that he has submitted the Pythonista 2.0 update, once it's through Apple's review process you can play with all the new features without needing beta access. Of course if you want to test future Pythonista versions, you can sign up for the beta through the form that has been linked to very often in this thread.
;)

@omz First of all, many thanks for all the good and useful work you have done. As I have an app with Bluetooth LE, I'll be happy to test the newest beta release.

Looking forward to hear from you.

@DBGE the app has already been submitted to the App Store, I am very doubtful that he is accepting new beta members. The app will (hopefully) be public by the end of the year

Quick status update:
I've submitted Pythonista 2.0 (formerly known as 1.6 beta) to the App Store about 10 days ago.
It was rejected after a week because I had accidentally declared
external-accessory
as a background mode in the Info.plist. I had added that for testing something while working on thecb
(CoreBluetooth) module a while back (forgot to remove it), but it's actually only intended for apps that support licensed MFi (Made for iPhone) accessories, using theExternalAccessory
framework...Anyway, I've removed that, and re-submitted immediately, so it's been back in the review queue for 3 days now. I'm hoping that it'll be reviewed again before the holidays.
-
Thanks for the update. For people using the 1.5, should we expect to have all our files safe after the update? Of course I will back up just in case.
-
It is amazing how much Apple scrubs submitted apps. But it is good for customers who want only solid apps in the app store (unlike android).
-
@omz , once accepted, holiday time 😈😈😈
-
Just got the second rejection, unfortunately.
This time it's about the audio and Core Bluetooth background modes. I'm not sure yet if I'll try to appeal, or if I'll just re-submit without those background modes.
I'm almost certain that I'll have a hard time convincing the review team that background audio playback is essential for a programming app (and there's precedence for that mode getting abused, which, let's be honest, was the entire point of adding it to Pythonista), and Bluetooth communication in the background would be nice to have, but isn't that important in my opinion.
When I added background audio playback, I already had a feeling that it could cause trouble in app review... It was worth a shot, but at this point, I just want this update out there, to be honest.
