Hi Cyberpwn.com, Yes. You'll have to be sure that all content is embedded within the app, and zero URLs are used to load files. Also you'll probably want to consider disabling the Configuration Data URL and the Report to Cloud URL settings in your apps Core Properties. Please see the Documentation for more information on these settings. If this is done the user will need an internet connection only once when installing the app, and then another connection later if you wish to upload an update to the app store.

Parker, I had the same question as cyberpwn. Would you be willing to expand on your answer a little as far as where exactly those settings are located. You won't offend me if you really dummy it up. I'm very new to this. Thanks.

Hey Parker, this is great advice! Can i ask one follow up question? If I have an HTML/Text screen, but it's basically just words, with maybe one HYPERLINK (not actually opening a URL, just pointing to one), would that work as well? Further, if I want to have a pic on that screen, is there a way to embed the pic on that screen, then save the pic file to the BT_images folder or whatever, in XCode? How would I do that, if it's possible? This would tremendously speed up my ap, would love to do this!

@ MikeK - These settings are only available to Early Adopters. You can become one by clicking on the appropriate link in your control panel. You can get there by clicking on your email address at the top of this page. Then you can create a new v1.5 app. Play around with that for a while and see if everything doesn't make sense to you. I'll bet it does. @ Daniel - Yes you can use HTML files. Just embed them in the BT_docs folder in your project. The hyperlinks and images should work too, so long as they exist in the project as well. Just reference to them by their file name and not the full file path.
