It's a long story but this move should make it better since we have both Android and iOS. I already added the plugin into my package and submitted. Apple has already approved the new update with MWI plugin. At first, I thought I can simply switch the menu screens but am now worried that those who haven't upgraded yet won't have a menu screen at all and the whole app will be terribly broken. What is the best approach here or am I thinking all wrong? Title Comments Hi guys, I've been using BTA Design Menu for a year on my app but now I need to change it Menu with Image.

Especially now that iOS offers automatic updates. Comments Standard approach is to wait a couple weeks after your update goes live so a large % will have updated.

You will have to re-create everything that you had in the Design Menu over to the Menu With Image by using the web control panel. We know it's a pain that must be endured. -- Niraj Comments You cannot easily change from one plugin to another plugin.

Our menu is very simple (thankfully!) I just haven't linked it to any tabs or other areas so it's there in the background just waiting for me to 'flip the switch'.
