Would you please add the possibility to switch off the new flare feature in the iOS app? It takes a fair amount of extra processing power, which I would like to keep down as much as possible.
I'm a bit surprised that the flare would slow things down on iOS. Have you tried with and without and have conclusive results?
I suspect what we really need is to bring more of the view settings over. Unfortunately they aren't stored though.
I did some further testing. It appears that you are right that flare does not affect performance (as much) as I thought. So what's left is a matter of taste. I like the simulation better without the flare.
