Editmote 1.1 released - major new update with iPad support, customizable buttons and more

Yesterday we released Editmote 1.1 - a major update to our iOS app for remotely controlling your editing system on a Mac.

We've listened to your feedback and are now offering the ability to customize the buttons. Editing the buttons is simple - just go to the Actions menu and tap Edit Button Layout. Tapping a button presents a list of potential actions to assign to that button. To hide a button, set its action to (none). When finished, tap the Done button to finish customization.

We've added several more button types including marker navigation, but we've also added 10 custom user-defined buttons that you can set to whatever keyboard shortcut you like in the Editmote preference pane.

Another major new feature is native iPad support. This has been a long time coming because we felt that simply having the same fixed layout with bigger buttons wasn't particularly useful, so we wanted to wait for button customization before implementing native iPad support. The iPad has significantly more buttons slots than the iPhone version so you can have a lot of controls at your fingertips.

Editmote is available on the App Store and 1.1 is a free update for existing users. Please note that you will be unable to connect to the new version until you have upgraded your Editmote Preference Pane to version 1.1.
