WDWNT: The App 2.0 Now Available on App Store and Google Play

VERSION 2.0

Over the last several months, the WDWNT Tech Team has been diligently working on an update to WDWNT: The App. Today, we are proud to announce that WDWNT: The App 2.0 has been published to the Apple App Store and Google Play. It has been months… no, years in the making! We redesigned the app from the ground up, to make it more stable, faster, and easier to use.

WDWNT: The App

Before we get to the new features, I’d like to take a moment to thank the WIGS for their help in debugging the new app. Back in July, we allowed the WIGS early access to the new app and they have been using it ever since, posting bug reports and feature requests to the WIGSCord (WIGS exclusive Discord channel). If you aren’t a WIGS member, or would like more information on the WIGS, visit our Patreon site here. For as little as $2 a month, you can get great benefits, like getting to see the new App early.
