What's New in Loughborough Wave Lab

4.10.0

November 4, 2023

New features: • The app now respects whether or not your device is set to a Dark appearance (commonly known as Dark mode) in all configuration-related screens Improvements: • The custom simulations list has been given a modern appearance • The buttons in the configuration screens have been given a modern appearance (users on iOS 15 and above) • The buttons for controlling or clearing a simulation (and the configuration button) have been given a modern appearance Fixes: • Custom simulations: After the list is refreshed, the simulation description now matches that which is loaded when an item in the list is tapped

Great app....

.. but the recent update has a bug..
Aadmc22

Helps develop an intuitive feel for EM propagation

Latest version has a bug (iphone version at least) and can't find a way to contact the developer.
When changing the wavelength (nodes): after updating the number there is no "return" or "enter" key. The only way to get out of the number keypad is To press "load custom..." or "change mesh" buttons but then the new node value is forgotten and returns to the preset.
Can the ability to change wavelength be restored?
Thx

Excellent

Works smoothly and the content is fundamental, interactive, and beautiful.
SGSome other guy!

Learn to learn

I intuitively understand sound propagation a whole lot better after playing around with this. Just plain entertaining too.
