I got some private reply and I'm sorry to say that unfortunately an official release on the AppStore is not going to happen any time soon, for the moment we stick with TestFlight

Just to make clear why!

LK8000 is developed under GPLv3, Apples AppStore ToS (Terms of Service) do not allow to distribute GP licened Software.

https://www.zdnet.com/article/android-vs-iphone-the-gpl-question/

Quote:
"For most developers, though, if you're creating GPL software, you can sell it through the Android Market, but not through Apple's App Store. It's that simple. Now, if Apple changes their ToS, it would be a different story, but I think I'll see Adobe Flash in the Apple iPhone App Store before that happens."

For the same reason XCSoar can't be found in the AppStore and the well known VLC Player had to be removed from "Apples" AppStore!

Just to make it less clear. You are linking 7 years old article. Things has probably changed.

VLC is on AppStore for few years now.

VLC for Mobile od: VideoLAN https://itunes.apple.com/cz/app/vlc-for-mobile/id650377962?l=cs&mt=8
Now anyone can take source code, compile it and upload into his own device without paying.

I'm testing the iOS version, which looks quite good. I know MANY pilots which have prayed a lot to have an iPAD / iPhone version. Having this version too (if possible, of course) means a lot of further success for LK8000.

Yes I'm sorry, I was sure to release the v7 earlier but I couldn't meet my own deadline for it ..
meanwhile I've bumped the version so I can fix the v7 which means:
1) getting rid of the rounded corners
2) fix crashes due to orientations change (hopefully)

is all ios related the "core" part works fine

iOS release is a big missing in LK8000!
I understand all license related problems but... c’mon LOTS of pilots around the world are waiting for this!

I use kobo for flights, and iPhone will never be my primary device, but would still love a iOS version as a backup

Anyway, thanks to everyone in the team for your great work!

I have to report what it might be a bug:
Device: iPhone 8
IOS Version: 12.3.1
LK Version: 6.1u
Behaviour: After I lock the screen with the LOCK SCREEN button the system cannot unlock it using the usual "double click on low right corner". The only way is to turn the phone off.
