iPhone 15 Support

Can you please update the app to support use on the iPhone 15. The phone is nearly 1 year old.
The lack of support means that I am you able to sample our testing sites….

Great Product

I love the microbiometer but lately the app has been very slow, especially the camera when taking the picture. The app use to work wonderfully but this past month I have been experiencing issues. I have the app on multiple devices, and all the devices are experiencing the same camera/pic delay as well as inability to access previous sample data. I do hope there is an update to fix any issues, I love the info from these tests. Thanks

In app camera can’t focus on the test

There needs to be a the ability to sub tests for analysis from the photo library. The in app camera can’t use the iOS multi camera focus function for the close focus required for the test
