This is it, the big v11.0 update for your CLZ Music app. Version 11 is a huge step forward in the customizability of the app. And I am not talking about tweaking the look and feel here, like layout, colors, fonts, etc… No… this time we are giving you the ability to actually customize the database itself, with your own “Custom Fields“!
The Custom Fields feature will let you create your own data fields, to catalog any information for which the app does not have a built-in field. You can create text fields, number fields, date fields, Yes/No toggles, pick list fields and much more.
All fields you create can be edited on a special Custom Fields tab of the Edit Album screen. The entered data will nicely appear in a special section on the album details page. And of course, you will be able to use the fields like any built-in fields, that is, sort on them, use pick list, date and toggle fields as folders, search your text fields, etc..
Yes, it has been quite a while since we released updates for the CLZ mobile app. But there is a good reason for that. Most of the CLZ team has been working on our biggest update since years. And its release is very close now!
So here’s a quick heads-up for all users of our CLZ mobile apps: Within 2 weeks, we are going to release major version 11.0 updates for all 5 apps (CLZ Comics, CLZ Movies, CLZ Books, CLZ Music and CLZ Games).
In this version 11, we will introduce an important new CLZ feature, bringing yet another way to customize the app to fit your wants and needs:
Custom Fields: create your own data fields!
The Custom Fields feature will let you create your own data fields, to catalog any information for which the app does not have a built-in field.
You will be able to use the fields like any built-in fields, that is, sort on them, use custom pick list fields as folders, sync the data to CLZ Cloud, print or export list with the custom fields included, etc…
And, if you are also subscribed to the CLZ Web cloud-based software for your computer: the Custom Fields are available there too, so you can sync your created fields and their data between Web and mobile!
Fixed:
- Sync with CLZ Cloud: Updates: Custom covers did not download correctly
- Sync screen could open when tapping Edit during image downloads
- Details view not fully visible in some cases
- “Downloading images” bar could appear when nothing was downloading
Fixed:
- Further tweaks to the down-syncing from CLZ Cloud
- Add, Edit and Action buttons could sometimes not be used if images were still downloading in the background
New:
- More optimizations for down-syncing with CLZ Cloud
Fixed:
- Sync: Custom covers weren’t downloaded
No new features here, but an important improvement to an existing one: the CLZ Cloud syncing. Our mobile developers Pim and Bernard have implemented three changes that will make the down-syncing of new items from the CLZ Cloud to your app a LOT faster!
- The syncing now down-syncs the *data* first, while queuing the *image* downloads. This will make the data sync super fast.
- Downloading the images is much quicker too, especially on fast connections, as it downloads multiple images at the same time.
- As soon as the data download has completed, you can close the Sync screen and start using the app. The image downloads will continue at the bottom of the main screen, prioritising images that are “in view”.
Fixed:
- Renamed “Listened” to “Played”
- Edit: Personal: New big blue “Mark as Played” button on the Personal tab for unplayed albums
- Edit: Links: Tapping next/previous album while waiting for link description could crash the app
Fixed:
- Crash: When an album couldn’t be located/selected on start-up or after editing the app could crash
- iPad: albums sometimes wouldn’t be scrolled to after picking it from a search in your own collection
- Collection bar at the bottom could disappear on closing the sync screen
- Collection bar didn’t appear immediately when adding a new collection for the first time
Fixed for iOS:
- The scroll position in the list could be wrong after searching in own collection and tapping a result from the suggestions
- Images view: Pinch to zoom in images view was broken
- Edit screen: tapping “next” or “previous” on the Links tab would crash the app
Fixed for Android:
- Statistics: The “Listened” statistics showed information over all collections instead of the active collection
- Scrolling lists / tapping buttons / selecting items in a list / removing items could suddenly stop working
- Covers stayed zoomed in if you navigated out of an item and into another
- Edit screen: Taking a picture for your cover could sometimes remove all other information from that item
- Selecting: Tapping “Select All” in didn’t show items being selected in images view
v10.2.2: (Android only) Smoother navigation between folders, album list and album details
This one is for the Android users!
Our Android developer Pim was working on the app’s main screen and he saw some opportunities for improvement. Mainly to reduce slowness and stuttery behaviour when navigating back and forth between the folder list, the album list and album details page.
So instead of starting on the next new feature, we gave him a few days to refactor the code and improve existing functionality.
The result of Pim’s work is live now, in version 10.2.2 of the CLZ Music app.
We have been testing the new update quite a bit and we think it feels a lot snappier and smoother, especially noticeable on larger collections.
We hope you will notice the improvements too and that it will make you enjoy the app even more!
Fixed:
- A couple of navigation issues
- Albums could show up as doubles in certain situations
How to update your app to the new version:
- On your device, open the Play Store app.
- Search for “CLZ” and select the CLZ Music app.
- Tap “Update” to update the app.
