Set List Maker version 4.0.6 has been tested and tweaked for iOS 8 compatibility. This should be available before iOS 8 is released on September 17:
http://www.arlomedia.com/apps/setlistmaker/support/release_notes.htmlIf you are still using Set List Maker 3I have not tested Set List Maker version 3 on iOS 8, but I expect that it will introduce some of the incompatibilities I just addressed in version 4.0.6. This includes the on-screen keyboard appearing and covering part of the Perform window, and some minor graphics issues.
I am no longer able to release updates for version 3, so I will not be able to address any issues in that version. If you are still using Set List Maker 3, I recommend not installing iOS 8 until you are ready to update to Set List Maker 4. The
Version 4 FAQ has several resources to help make that transition.
If you are using an iPad 1At some time in the future, Apple will stop supporting the iPad 1 in its developer tools, and I will no longer be able to support it in my software. With the upcoming iOS 8, that time has not come yet, so the upcoming Set List Maker and BandHelper updates will continue to run on the iPad 1.
However, it looks like Apple is changing the way Bluetooth keyboard connections, as used by
AirTurn and other Bluetooth remote control devices, work in iOS 8, and this might affect how the app works on the iPad 1. I will attempt to update my apps to provide the same hardware support they always have, but if I need to remove Bluetooth keyboard support for the iPad 1 in an upcoming version, I will state that in the release notes.
If you use a Bluetooth remote control device with an iPad 1, please read the release notes (labeled "What's New" in the App Store) for the next few updates, or check this thread, before installing. If I am forced to stop supporting this configuration, you would need to avoid installing any more app versions in order to maintain your current functionality.
If you are using a Bluetooth or wired keyboard device for remote controlThe keyboard remote control functionality will change slightly for anyone who updates to iOS 8. The app running on iOS 8 will no longer connect to a Bluetooth or wired keyboard automatically. Instead, you can tap the new "keyboard" button in the top toolbar of the show view (see screen shot below) to make the connection. You should only do this when your remote control device is paired with your iOS device; otherwise, the software keyboard will appear on screen and cover your show view. If this happens accidentally, you can tap the keyboard button to disable keyboard input and that should hide the software keyboard again.
The default functionality is unchanged for devices running iOS 7 or older, but the keyboard connection button will still appear, so you can use it to toggle a keyboard connection if needed.
And since there are now five possible buttons in the utility toolbar, I've added settings to hide any you don't need, in Settings > Appearance > Utility Buttons In Top Toolbar.
