Sorry that this update has taken so long, but I wanted to make sure that the major feature was working as best it possibly could. So the major addition is the availability to access over 8600 fixtures that are constantly being updated. This premium library which can be found in the Lighting Library section under "Premium Library" is membership based. You can log into your LightShop account or create on in Lighting Handbook. (Please note the Premium library can only be accessed while connected to the internet, however you can save fixtures to your favourites to view them while offline) Also there have been major updates to the PDF reader so hopefully more manuals will now open without any issue. (if you do have an issue with a manual, please try and delete the manual from the saved manuals section and then try and redownload it - If the problem still persists please do let me know via the feedback section) The other update is the iOS 7 update, The app is now brought into line with a flat design. I will now be working to add more fixtures to the standard library and update that on a more regular basis - Sorry i don't have all new fixtures in the library (I'm just a one man operation) You can now specify your voltage and weight specification in the settings page and only see only the info that is relevant for yourself. Hope you enjoy it! If you do like Lighting Handbook please do leave a review in the App Store. It really does help!!

Assuming that there are no other major issues for iOS 4.3 users, this shall be the last version supporting 4.3 Already working on the next update, and that should fix several manual viewing issues.
