Otherwise, the main Software Changes in BiteFX on the iPad V3.1.34 are:

Fixed an issue that some people attempting to purchase the app using its in-app purchase feature received an error "No response from BiteFX server".
Importing your own pictures (or "images") would sometimes be limited to those selected in a previous import.
Now every import gives access to all pictures in the Gallery or Cloud.
Numbering of imported picture albums made consistent with the behavior of BiteFX on Windows.
Each imported picture album starts with a number that is incremented every time a new album is imported.
The number is always visible whether the pictures are hidden or not, so you can distinguish hidden albums from each other.
Several minor behavioral issues such as ensuring all buttons are only highlighted (enabled) when they should be.
All updates issued since the last release (3.1.21) up to March 2024 are included.
If you were behind on installing updates, installing this release is your quickest way of bringing all your content up-to-date.
Content matches the content on Windows at the end of March 2024.
Ask me if you want the details but it comprises:
- 17 new animations
- 17 enhanced animations
(a coincidence it's the same number as new animations)
- 3 new presentations
