What's New in Version 2.0.1

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.

Fixes a crash on iOS 9. This was due to changes to the behaviour when AAC audio files were decoded. As a quick fix I have switched to uncompressed mono audio files.
Hopefully stereo samples will be back in the next version!
