WHAT'S NEW IN VERSION 8.1:
Lots of nice improvements with this big update, after the addition of iCLOUD AUTO-SYNC last time. Editing & adding to lists & the catalog have been made much more intuitive, flexible & smooth. iCloud sync has also been improved and thoroughly stress tested.
MORE FLEXIBLE MASTER CATALOG ORGANIZATION:

- Occasional crashes when email-importing lists into iPhone/iPod touch
- Unable to move or copy Types into empty Categories
I'm sorry to say that this may be the last update for devices still running on iOS lower than 4.0 (original iPhone & iPod touch). Also, Apple is encouraging us to only support iOS 4.3 and above, so this may be the last update for the iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2G as well. If you have a newer device that is still updatable, I would strongly suggest updating to the most recent iOS, or keeping a backup of this .ipa file if you can't. I have always tried to support as many devices as possible for as long as I could, but technology marches forward.
