This latest release adds new functionality including the ability to create an app and select Publish Package, which will get a .zip file that contains Store-ready publish packages, up to six screenshots of the app, the app logo, and publication instructions – everything needed to submit an app to the Phone Store and the Windows Store.
Also new are YouTube playlists as a data source that now provide the ability for an app to display videos by user, search term, and playlist. Also new are photo layout options for data sources that include Instagram, Flickr, and dynamic and static collections.
