Based on the research I have done so far, I get the impression that the New Clear is in many ways very different from the Legacy Clear so many of us have come to love and rely upon. Some existing users may find transitioning to the New Clear easy and exciting, while others may experience it as deman…

I’ve been thinking about this whole situation ever since I got in the beta. You know what it reminds me of? NINTENDO. We would love to have a new F-Zero; actually we would all love to have the F-Zero GX from GameCube, just up-rezed, and we wouldn’t complain about anything. We would love a Starfox6…

I think we’ll be able to hit most of these up. Undo removal was accidental, it got tied up in feature flags with us experimenting with it as an action you could assign to any of the personalizable gestures. (Internal experiment going on.) We will restore it in the next TestFlight build. I have to …

I’m not entirely closed to that option but our personality is, let’s focus on our goal scenario of sticking with single SKU but trying to sand off all the rough corners and improve the transition experience for people updating as much as we can, and see where we can get it. And I realize your compa…

Cannot overemphasize how important it is to maintain previous functionality and syncing across apple phone and iPad. Last thing i would want to see is a lot of new “features” getting in the way of such a classically pure, beautiful app. I’d be happy to pay $50 a year to assure it just continues to…

I agree with much that is said here. I would urge the the devs to concentrate on providing the core functionality that the original app had, before adding anything peripheral that is just a gimmick. The success of the original app, and the reason so many people loved it, was its simplicity. It wou…

In our defense, the original never launched with sync or reminders either. What it did launch with was vibrant colors, satisfying sound effects, quotes, etc. in addition to the core gestures. The new version covers that core original 1.0 functionality, which was probably responsible for about 75% of…

Hey Claire, to be honest it will probably take a couple years to build back to sync with this next generation Clear. The current syncing codebase which is ancient, totally out of compliance with current ‘building codes’ and beyond efficiently fixing back up, was on a ticking timer to just stop worki…

Thanks for the explanation, improves my minimal understanding of what it’s all about. Plain vanilla working iPhone app will be good if I must eventually leave original Clear behind. Some way to back up would be excellent.

Agreed, will be looking into some simple backup option. Btw for others, we’re thinking of taking a look at supporting ‘legacy’ themes sooner than later that will be exclusive for people updating into new Clear and help some ease the transition. Here’s a quick preview of how the ‘Classic Heatmap’ t…

Whoa, looks fantastic! How would that work? If you have legacy Clear on your Phone it will appear?

New beta is out now and includes further adjustments for text scaling/padding at Lists and Clear levels of the app. I think this should help quite a bit.
