As DH 2014 v2 is now up to 12 regions, how about recommended UI changes?
1) Present a Region matrix screen. This screen would show the regions in either pictoral or alphanumeric format. Currently scrolling through the regions to get to the one you wish to hunt is beginning to be cumbersome. Providing a region matrix would allow the player to select the region one wishes to hunt without having to serially scroll through a number of regions one DOESN'T wish to hunt. And since, by the end of the year, there be at least five more regular/club hunt regions and at least one more hidden region, *a Refion Selection screen will make the process much easier.
2) For program updates, provide an "Update All Regions" "Update All Hidden Regions button(s). Currently, with 12 regular/club hunt regions and 2 Hidden Regions, it takes approximately 5 minutes to update. All regions have to be updated because the Club Hunt regions are tied to a regular hunt region. An "Update All" button would simply the process of going through this REQUIRED procedure.
3) Provide a brief synopsis of updates. Recently, there have been several program updates, but we really don't know what was changed. Providing an update synopsis would at least give us some idea of for what to expect (or not expect) post-update.
I understand that with changes like these, there will initially be some bugs to be worked out over a period of time. But, for me, it will be worth the growing pains.
Thanks for considering!

It has never taken me 5 minutes to do all the updates, but I can see how that can be annoying... But your idea suggests that it takes 5 minutes to FIND the updates, cause whether you do 3 updates that take a minuter or 1 update that takes 3 minutes, isn't that the same thing?
As for what came with updates, this just sounds like a waste of time to me because it would be a huge list of little bug fixes and speed and animal movement changes. But I would like to see a simplified list, I was thinking that in the App Store where it says the version updates, why don't they right a new version number with each small update I.e. 2.2.1, cause the 3 digit is always 0 so why even have it lol. And here is where they could say what the changes were

I would also propose that the bounties start over after completion. I know only us hard core players would get the benefits, but it was a lot of fun working towards completing those.
And I also download all of the maps. I like playing all of the club hunts.
even though as shep said 741 MB is the biggest app I have, there are much larger ones out there, I did research on it in the past, and there were actually complaints by developers that had apps over 2GB (less in the more distant past) that couldnt add them to the app store becuase of their size, and there are limits on the size of apps that users can download over the 4g network (much smaller) so a way to get around this is to have in-app downloads. this can inhibit the number of users that spontaneously download their apps. this might be the reason glu does this.
