apps look better. Use new text formatting options, like centered and
underlined text. Finally, make your brand truly come through by using a custom
logo that appears on your users' home screens.
You can now insert your own images in text boxes. They can either be centered
or float to the right or to the left of the text. A slider lets you adjust the
image width. Images work offline and are responsive, meaning that they work
well on any screen.
Use your own logo with your app to raise awareness of your brand. The logo is
displayed on the loading screen and on home screens your app has been added
to.
You can now use 26 new fonts when formatting text in text boxes, including
serif, sans-serif, monospace and playful display fonts. Custom fonts work even
when your app runs offline.
Calcapp now supports text alignment, underlined and strikethrough text and
different font sizes. You can also upload your own images and make use of 26
available fonts.
