Two weeks ago, an updated version of RailControl Pro was released, featuring a convenient new way to reconnect to previously used Central Stations, along with improved app stability.

Previously Used Central Stations

For those using multiple Central Stations—whether at home or at the club—RailControl Pro now remembers the stations you’ve previously connected to.

You can now easily add a custom name to each entry (e.g., Club CS3). Needless to say, you can also delete entries with just a swipe.

App Stability

Another major improvement in this version is app stability on iOS. Due to a regression in iOS 18, RailControl Pro would stop responding correctly after switching back from another app—loc functions would no longer work, and changing a locomotive’s direction became impossible.

This issue should have been easy to track down, but unfortunately, it only occurred in the App Store version—not when running the app directly on a device during development.

As iOS 18 rolled out to more devices, a few sharp-eyed users reported the issue, which kicked off a slow and difficult investigation. I’m very happy to announce that, with this update, those same users have confirmed the problem is now resolved.

Once again, this proves how important it is to contact me if you run into any issues. Thank you for taking the time to reach out! A small annoyance for you might be affecting others too—without me even knowing it.
