Major features: App is now localized in 11 additional languages
Bug fixes: when switching between game types the app could get confused and stop working, fixing data issues when looking at the end game summary screen.

v3.03
- fixing sign-in with apple

v3.02
- added new practice maps for Italy, Spain, and Turkey
- after playing a versus game, added the ability to do another one without having to go back through the whole flow
- extended play prior days to go back to 90 days + to the first of that month
- additional locations in the master locations database
- fixed an issue where family sharing wasn't working for yearly subscriptions.
- daily challenge practice level is now 25 seconds to finish instead of 20.
- hopefully fixing an issue where some users saw a blank globe when loading the game.

v3.01
- fixing an issue where if you play the daily game, then play a versus game, then go back to the daily game, the end game screen of the daily game wouldn't load.
- if you played a versus game, then looked at "today's details", it would show the locations from the versus game. Fixed to always be the daily game.
- fixed an issue where you accept a versus challenge and at the end it was only showing the final score, not the per-round details.
- fixed an issue where the game length wasn't reporting correctly
- added code for a future revision of how locations for versus cities are selected (but disabled - web and iOS need synced launch)

v3.0: New Versus Mode! Challenge your friends to a 20-second, 5-location game. Think your friend maybe cheats a little in the daily game? Make them prove their skills in versus mode.

Bug fixes:
- playing music (like with Spotify) should no longer be interrupted by maptap sounds (sorry about that!)
- better error message when you try to use the app but are not connected to the internet
- fix for when the globe was partially, incorrectly lit (especially in "play prior days")
- fix for when you would play prior days, then couldn't play practice maps.

I hate it when apps say "bug fixes and performance enhancements" and you are left to wonder what they did. So instead of that, I'm going to make it really clear what bugs I'm fixing (or, think I'm fixing). If you see bugs, you would really help me out by letting me know! use the link to support, and send me a message. And thanks so much for playing MapTap.

Bug fixes:
Some users reported MapTap freezing when it launched. The app might be doing too many things at once on startup. Fixed that.
If you switched apps in the middle of a practice map, your progress would be lost. this should be fixed.
When you are in a group, if there is a new unread chat message, you get a little notification for that in your main menu. That notification wasn't reliably going away when you read your group messages. should be fixed.
added the version number on the menu page.

New stuff:
Updated some of the scoring text with some new fun ones.

Bug fixes: transitioning between game types (daily game -> best of -> practice maps) could break.

Minor bug fixes and performance optimizations.
Gosh I hate it when apps put that in their new version notes. I wonder what they are hiding. Like "Also 10,000 new things we don't want to tell you".
So, Minor bug fixes: the tutorial text was broken because it had characters like \n when I meant for those to be new lines.
and, Performance optimizations: the end of the daily game hitches because it is trying to do so many things simultaneously. I spread those out to keep frame rate up.
I wonder if apple will reject my app because I'm putting random commentary in here?

Added a new free practice map: challenge round, 5 locations in 20 seconds.
Settings: added a setting for globe brightness (in case it was too dark on some devices), updated settings for tap sensitivity.
And a bunch of random bug fixes.

Support for features in upcoming maps.
Fixed "play missed days", which was pointing to "my stats". Whups.
While I was there, I spruced up that page to show more score data from prior played days.
The globe dims a bit at the end of the game to better read the end-of-game text.

Content:
Three new best-of-maptap additions

Visuals:
Sometimes you get a shooting star :)
On end-game stories with links or sounds, a subtle button will appear in case tapping the text is tricky.

Bug fixes: 
confirm tap mode could get confused and that dialog wouldn't go away. 
some practice maps where you had to find the country, on some countries, wouldn't give you 100 for tapping inside the country.
The moon would never sort in front of the Earth. Fixed that.

fixing some visual bugs,
adding stars background,
adding a setting where you can get distances in miles instead of kilometers

Fixing US practice maps that were broken,
New background star field, added the moon,
When zoomed out, city lights appear on the dark side of the planet
Bug fixes and support for features in upcoming daily maps.

Groups: in-app notification (a badge in the menu) that tells you if there's new comments in your group, daily per-round scores for your group, in the 'this week' view squeezed in the most recent 6 days (was 3).

Best-of: Added a new section for "best of maptap" that has 10+ prior days you can play that are some of the best stories. MapTap+ only, and this section will grow over time.

Practice: fixed an issue with daily picture practice maps not being consistent images / locations for all users

Fixed some practice maps that weren't working,
Added new practice maps, including more MapTap+ practice maps

Content: New practice maps, better personalized practice logic
Visuals: sped up the practice game end of round (practice games 2x faster to play now), some cool new fx, including some special ones for MapTap+ members, better summary screens

Many practice mode fixes
Experience points gained shown on the map
Bug fix: In a practice game, if you exit the app (like when your wife calls you and wonders where you are, and you have to explain there's just one more bug to fix) then you return to the app, you lost your practice progress. App now picks up where it left off.
