Hello All: Please see this detailed blog entry giving a walk-thru the awesome new user interface! https://news.yitechnology.com/how-to/info-on-how-to-make-the-most-out-of-your-app/
The update I just got on my ipad has rendered the app useless again. When you select full screen mode it rotates the screen 90 degrees so you are looking at the picture sideways. Turn the device 90 degrees and the picture rotates also so it is still sideways.
This is just inexcusable.

Hey @wirlybird Thanks for reporting this to us. I have just shared with our team and they will address this immediately. We deeply apologize for any inconvenience. This most recent release did not meet our high quality standard and will work hard to avoid such issues in the future.
That would be good. I do hope so!
Seems like the āstandardsā have been taking a beating lately.
Indeed this is awful. The only way to get around it is to lock rotation and then everything else is locked in portrait mode. Ruins it for me.
Learned a lotā¦ a lot to improve on indeed 
we greatly appreciate your patience while we work to get this resolved.
Working on this now. Thank you for your feedback.
Itās possible this has to do with IPadOS 15, which I just installed. It was after that that the problem started occurring and it was before I updated to 5.0.2. It works correctly on the iPhone ios 15.
Thanks for the info @jscris please know our team is aware of this issue and working hard to resolve it very quickly. As soon as as new release is available, I will be sure to announce it on the forum. Thank you for your patience.
Hi, i use this blog to say āthanksā to YI/Kami. For me the app is fine again. Thanks for going back to functionality before all these awful recent updates:
- date/time and timeline is back on full screen
- navigation using the timeline works as fine as previously
- activities on SD-card are again shown correctly
OK, clarity is still not that fine as before the awful updates, but it is acceptable.
Cheers.

Thanks for the update we will do better in the future.
I keep trying to download and install the update on my iPhone, but the download message stays stuck at 0/100. I have tried many times over the past few months, but the result is always the same.
