Popcorn Ready app for iOS

I use and like Medium (for Browse layout), and I think that should be the default. Small is really small on the inner screen of the Duo.

Understood on all your points. Thanks so much.

I'll be posting a new build shortly that has a lot more polish. Some of that is Duo specific, but many of the changes also improve the look on other devices. For example, the top and bottom control bars are now smaller and less obtrusive and they disappear completely while scrolling and then reappear once the screen settles.

Build 182 is now posted to the group in TestFlight with the extra polish! Enjoy!
 
Love the disappearing tool bars on top and bottom when scrolling. Well-done and thanks !

Too bad we can't hide Apple's time/battery life/cellular and wi-fi connection control setting icon on the top right of the Duo.

I don't see other differences so I can't test for them but have not encountered any issues.

One question: Is there a way to add auto-fresh of the library upon launch of the app? I notice that there is notice of "preparing library" when the app launches. I think that's just preparing the UI. But, I don't think that refreshes the library. Last I checked, I still had to go to settings to refresh the library of my movies.

It should auto refresh the library when you open the app or even if the app is sitting there open on your screen. I just tested by buying a movie and I had the app open on my MacBook and it automatically refreshed my library within about 5-10 seconds after I bought the movie. I then opened the app on my iPhone and within just about 3 seconds of launching the app, my new library purchase showed up.
