MealPlan Goes 2.0 With Universal Support For iPhone Plus iCloud Sync
March 17, 2014
The aptly named meal and grocery planner app MealPlan has just been updated to version 2.0.
MealPlan 2.0 is a significant update in that it adds not one, but two of the most requested features for the app.
First, the update adds universal support, thereby making the formerly iPad-only app compatible with iPhone as well. What's more, while the app's original iPad edition remains unchanged in the looks department, MealPlan for iPhone is essentially a whole new app, with a new interface done in the style of iOS 7.
Now that MealPlan is already universal, a syncing solution to keep data up-to-date across multiple iOS devices is only to be expected. Fortunately, the app's latest update also delivers in that respect as it adds support for syncing via iCloud.
As before, MealPlan offers the following key features:
Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad running iOS 7.0 or later, MealPlan 2.0 is available now in the App Store as a free update or as a new $3.99 download. [gallery link="file" order="DESC"]
