When searching for a hill, include alternative names too.
Added options to the unclimbed hills map accessed by swiping right to left on the lists view. For Munro Tops and deleted Munros, this includes showing the current Munros in grey (I find this useful when planning trips).
Added a top unclimbed hills section to the bottom of the dashboard view. This only includes hills in your tracked lists.
Added a fourth, darker colour theme, selected from the settings screen.
Minor layout improvements.

Added regional lists for Scotland, Wales, England and Ireland.
For Scottish lists, the To Do section header shows separate counts for south and north of the Great Glen, plus the Islands.
version 7.1
posted on 2021-07-18
Jul 18, 2021 Version 7.1
Updated Google Maps behind the scenes. Some small visual changes like the map pins now have a small white border. Also added a compass to help align a rotated map. Still no sign of a scale control on Google Maps for iOS ...
Added animation support to most of the map views with climbed hills. Simply tap the play icon at the top left and choose a speed.
Added a distance calculation to work out the minimum distance you travelled between summits. Available when animating (above) and on the top year rows on the dashboard. My Munro round (e.g.) was at least 7016km or 4360 miles!
The app now requires iOS 11.0 or above (required by Google Maps).
version 7.0.1
posted on 2021-03-05
Mar 5, 2021 Version 7.0.1
Fixed a bug to do with importing Tumps.
When filtering on Landranger sheets, I now display the sheet number (iPad only).
version 7.0
posted on 2021-02-19
Feb 19, 2021 Version 7.0
Updated the underlying Database of British and Irish Hills (DoBIH) to version 17.1, a routine update with changes to the Marilyns, HuMPS, Simms, Dodds, Munro Tops, Nuttalls, Deweys, Donald Deweys, Highland Fives and County Tops.
Added support for the SIBs (Significant Islands of Britain), most are not easy to get to!
Added support for the Tumps (Thirty and Upward Metre Prominence). This is a huge list of over 17,000 hills. For performance reasons it is managed via a new Tumps filter on the location view (4th tab, top left). You can select and tick off hills from the map, and they will be included in the all ascents/hills view.
To help with ongoing lockdowns and staying local, added another filter to show all hills (including Tumps) on each of the Landranger 1:50k map sheets. This defaults to your local map sheet, but you can pan around the country to explore further afield. Enjoy!
Ascents on an individual hill page are now shown in descending order, most recent first (as they are on the all ascents screen). For hills with lots of ascents (10 or more), added a quick index to scroll to specific years.
Performance improvements, especially when loading maps.
Backup improvements.
version 6.8
posted on 2020-10-13
Oct 13, 2020 Version 6.8
Updated the underlying Database of British and Irish Hills (DoBIH) to version 17. Minor changes to the Marilyns, HuMPS, Simms, Dodds, Nuttalls, Deweys, County Tops, Synges and Hewitts. Note the Munro Top Beinn a' Chroin West Top has been deleted, following confirmation by the SMC.
Also in version 17 the Dodds have been extended to Ireland, bringing them into alignment with the Marilyns, Humps and Simms. The list replaces the Myrddyn Deweys.
When searching for hills, I now match on ascent notes too. This lets you search for all hills climbed with a person, assuming they are mentioned in the log. Clearly if they are called Ben, you might get a few more matches than expected, perhaps use @Ben or #Ben in the logs!
When adding multiple hills on the same day, I now retain the order they were logged. This has always been the case with hills logged on the day, just not earlier days.
Bug fixes.
version 6.7.1

Sep 17, 2020 Version 6.7.1
Added two new lists for their historical perspective: deleted Munro Tops and deleted Donald Tops.

The location view now distinguishes unclimbed hills in your tracked lists (red) from other unclimbed hills (grey).
Added a map scale when using Apple maps (not yet supported on Google maps).

Improvements to the underlying database, to reduce memory usage and speed a few things up.

Added list completion dates to the lists view (displayed when complete, unless you have multiple rounds configured).
Added the hill's relative height (also known as drop or prominence) to each individual hill page.
Added an option to filter the location view map by height (3000ft, 2500ft or 2000ft), drop (150m or 100m) or to distinguish tracked lists. When viewing the map (4th tab), tap the location view icon a second time.
Added a setting to change the climbed hills colour to blue (for some people, green and red are not a good combination).
