RE: Time to release a new version to App Store
There really is no need to have this subject raised again. It's been brought up before (by you) and remains unanswered (here. The fact there is a beta program and it was recently re-released means there is a developer involved, and it means that one day a product will most likely be released. Until that day, be satisfied with the community resources that have been made available here and on/off line in the app.
Given the amazing Pythonista is, the detailed documentation, the ease of the IDE and tools, and the available community resources, it is something the developer has obviously spent a lot of time getting right. There's no need to bug them and tell the current version being 17 months old. It's running Python 3.6, (considering 3.7 was only in beta when Pythonista was released, I think that's pretty good).
I do admit, I would like to see some sort of update from them giving something away, but this is the current paradigm of developers today; you rarely hear about new features in most operating systems, phones and devices, other development suites, just about everything today, that is until it is released.
If you'd like to be a part of the beta and have the latest features, follow the information in the [New Beta for Pythonista 3.3] (https://forum.omz-software.com/topic/5295/new-beta-for-pythonista-3-3) post (you only have to download TestFlight and click on a link in here and the update will be pushed to you if you want it). TBH, it was a little confusing for me when I first signed up, you HAVE to visit that link from the iOS device you wish to have the beta pushed to. I kept doing it from the desktop and couldn't work out why nothing appeared for a few days.
We could all speculate why the developer has gone dark. He use to be around, posting to the community and the occasional tweet, but he hasn't replied in several months to anyone publicly by any means of communication (community, tweets and emails). He must have his reasons. Given the beta is active and has just been renewed, let us be satisfied with that! When the next version is ready it will be released and it will be made available to the community.
(I personally want to believe he has locked himself in a cave and is working hard to make a perfect product for all of us to enjoy!) :D

RE: iCloud syncing and pythonista.
I think I may have solved this issue...
I’ve created dozens of files over the last couple of weeks trying to get to the bottom of this. But syncing between the iPad and iPhone has just stopped working for pythonista (only, everything else has been fine)
It IS a shame pythonista doesn’t have a “pull down” refresh option at the top of the iCloud folder, but what I have found is that if I go to the file explorer on the left and go down to “Open External” and then select files (as opposed to folder, it’s not guaranteed to work there), I can see all the files, even newly created files on either device. The iCloud folder in that location is up to date, it’s just that pythonista’s version of it hasn’t refreshed (at least in my case) for whatever reason...
But now, after having done that, it seems this may be fixed! So far so good!

RE: Who is running this show? I’m looking for support.
It’s a forum support issue itself. I’m not getting the password reset emails and so I can’t log into the forum with my desired account because for whatever reason the browser decided it didn’t want to remember the password, and I certainly don’t. I have tried resetting the email countless times to no avail.
For one I’d like to know if it’s just me not getting emails, or everyone.
You could try hitting the “forgotten password” link to send the email to yourself, you don’t need to actually click the link and change your password, but I’d like to know if it’s just not hitting my server (Gmail) or it is a mis configuration on their part. If the server is running from a personal computer at home it’s likely not to be set up correctly. But I need to rule out issues at googles end first. BTW, this is me on a different device, different browser. ie DaveM = madivad lol

RE: Beta expires in 1 day
There are some great people in this world and the Pythonista developer has done an amazing job.
Many people have been trying to contact him, self included, but he's not responding.
BTW: Julian Assange was arrested a month ago and no-one has heard from him either!!!!
