Upgrade to iOS 13.1.2 required to use Aero 

In order to install the newest build version 1.0.0 (23), it requires an upgrade to iOS and iPadOS (13.1.2) for iPad or iPhone. We first upgrading the OS on your device before updating to the newest version of Aero. 
 

Project Aero folders in Creative Cloud are now deprecated 

As of this release, the file folders under Project Aero in your Creative Cloud files are no longer a recommended workflow for converting or storing files for Aero.

 We recommend that you move your relevant content from the Project Aero folders to another location in Creative Cloud. Once you have done that, you may safely delete the old Project Aero folders as importing from these file locations may cause errors.

 New simplified import workflow 

You can now import your asset files directly from wherever they are stored or linked on your device. These file directories can be accessed by tapping the “plus” (+) button in Edit mode. 

 

• Creative Cloud (outside of the deprecated Project Aero file folders)
• DropBox
• Google Drive

Version 0.10.0 (7) gives you the ability to import files directly from the file directory onto your device. We've also set out to make asset management easier for you by displaying a thumbnail of the image in your Asset Tray. This works for image files today, but in the future it will also work for 3D assets as well.

Surface find and highlight

We've improved visual feedback! To make it easier to place content, in this build you can now see the feature points and white grid outlines when you're tracking surfaces.

 

Behavior Builder

This build brings you an updated layout for adding triggers and actions so you can add multiple actions to the same object in your scene. 

 

Image Anchors

A new interface for selecting image anchor sizes give you control over anchor sizing. Anchor your creation to an image so you can easily initiate an experience by capturing the image.
