Remoter VNC v1.8 is OUT! (And now 1.801)

[raf]

Remoter V1.8 Is Out Now! Available here:
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/remoter-remote-desktop-vnc/id369626098?mt=8

I have a request for you. If you like Remoter, please I would incredibly appreciate it if you could rate it on iTunes. The ratings went down as the new release became available, as there are now less than the minimum ratings for the current version.
This means Remoter's ratings are now displayed as the average amongst all versions. This really hurts Remoter, as some earlier versions got several bad reviews.
Thanks so much for helping!

What's New:
☆Completely revamped Session Selection
☆German and Russian Keyboard layouts. More layouts can now be added to Remoter as they become available
☆Multiple trackpad types: normal, plain and whole-screen
☆New TrackPad scroller
☆Trackpad edge scrolling
☆Connection Heartbeat can be turned on/off in Configuration Screen
☆Password / Username request alert can now be dismissed with the Return key
☆Auto-configure for older servers that don't support 16bpp color depth
☆New icons for different buttons (including Retina quality icons). Removed redundant options, made buttons bigger
☆New buttons for FullScreen mode: keyboard and trackpad
☆Remoter Config screen now has a "Default" button
☆Added disconnect button
☆Initial pointer position now retrieved from server
☆Simplified interface
☆Lots of bug fixes and enhancements

Discovered some minor problems on 1.8 & iPhone mainly. I'll be releasing an update as soon as possible.

-CTRL+ALT+DELETE in iPhone was inaccessible as F-keys were too wide for the button to be accessible.
-Cosmetic: Alt didn't light up when clicked (iPhone)
-Cosmetic: top area of trackpad was still visible after dismissing under certain conditions.
-Increased heartbeat timeout to 20sec from 10
-New retina art for new and start

Thanks,

Raf.

It's taking way longer than normal for Remoter to leave the "Processing for App Store" state with Apple (it usually takes 1-2 hours tops). I contacted support, and I'll keep you posted.

Thanks for your patience,

Raf.

For some reason that took way longer than it usually takes; but finally Remoter v1.801 is out. Go update now!.
(And PLEASE remember to rate Remoter if you like it!; THANK YOU!)

The reason I ask users to Rate remoter every time a new version comes out is that earlier versions of Remoter got a lot of negative ratings on iTunes, and they are there to stay. Everytime a new version comes out, iTunes displays the overall ratings across all versions. Once enough ratings are collected for the current version (5), then the average for the current version is displayed as well.
You might wonder "what's the big deal". The big deal is that every time I release a new version of Remoter, the ratings effectively go down from 5 (or 4.5 stars) down to 3. And this affects sales immensely. I see sales cut in half or more every time I release a new version. Which makes me almost want to stop releasing updates. (But I won't, don't worry). I just ask in exchange, that if you like Remoter, just rate (or re-rate) it when new versions come out.

Thanks for listening...

Raf.
