iOS 14 and higher.
How long will we continue to support v4.x.x? Will it have any further updates?
We will continue to support iOS Design Space 4.16.1 for the time being. Currently, we do not have an estimated time frame for deprecating this version. However, v4.16.1 will not be receiving any new features and functionality going forward.
Will updating to version 5.0.0 affect my saved projects, purchased content, and uploaded images?
No. Additionally, all projects saved only to your device, and all downloaded content (fonts, images) will still be accessible for use while offline and in the "Saved to this device" filter.
Does anything change with purchasing content or Cricut Access?
No. Members can subscribe to Cricut Access and purchase images/projects/fonts the way you do in the app today. In-app purchases will still be processed through iTunes.
