Updates on reopen

Website features check for updates when you reopen or resume the app online. Unfinished forms and drawings are not automatically discarded. Android 1.5.0 and later also check for newer native releases and offer Download update. Android still requires you to confirm APK installation. Install once over your existing copy to receive this new native check; never uninstall first. The iPhone home-screen app receives website updates without an App Store install.
