What's New in 1.1 New - Resume unfinished sessions. If the app closes mid-session, nothing is lost. Sessions save every 10 seconds, and you can pick up where you left off from Sessions. - Edit saved sessions. Change the observer, the session note, or whether the peer was observed. Swipe to delete an observer note. - Duration: Option for "Peer not observed this session." Peer percentages include only sessions where the peer was observed. - Apple Watch now works with watchOS 10 and later. Better printed reports - US Letter pages that break cleanly between sections. - Page numbers and a footer on every page. - Key numbers at the top of each report. - Rate by Setting on the Frequency report. - Print All can include your session notes. Charts and numbers - Trend lines drop to zero when a behavior stops. - By Session shows every session, and date labels no longer overlap. - Results across several sessions now pool all intervals and minutes, so a short session counts less than a long one. Partial and Whole Interval peer % uses only the intervals where the peer was coded. Some totals from earlier sessions may differ slightly from past printouts. Recording - Fixes across Frequency, Time Sampling, Duration, ABC and Latency, including undo, custom settings, and pausing. - Backups keep recent, daily and weekly copies, and the files are smaller.
