ACastC is a more Compact version of ACast where the big player has been replaced with a smaller player available from all views. The main menu has also been replaced by a new navigation button which is available from all views.

You can use Store/Restore backup (located in the Add/Manage view) to transfer data between all the ACast variants.

What is the plan for the available ACast versions?

ACast2 and 3, with their free/ad-driven counterpart, will both be updated and contain the same functionality. ACast3 is a compact version of ACast2, i.e. player view is removed and replaced by a player available from all views. Some people prefer the layout of ACast2 and some the ACast3 layout.

You can try/install ‘ACast3 Free’ and ‘ACast’ if you want to check out the GUI layout differences.

I’m thinking of renaming ACast3 to something that reflects the difference from ACast2, e.g. ACast Compact or similar, since the underlying functionality is still the same.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks,
