Is there a solution in the works for the mobile app working with Java 7 or a next generation mobile app? My clients love the mobile app, but but would not allow us to keep Java 6 installed on the ignition server if it is not being patched. Especially given the vulnerabilities Java has been dealing with lately (though those were mostly with Java 7). Thanks, ---

We have plans for making the Mobile Module work with Java 7. Right now it looks like it will be in Ignition 7.7. ---

So is that is putting us at about a year out? ---
