## Changes in 5.0.0 for iOS

- Adds a new Codebook Cloud sync service for automatic background sync!
- Adds support for background app refresh when Codebook Cloud is in use
- When Codebook Cloud is the selected sync service, the Sync view displays the current status of the service
- There is a new Welcome screen shown when Codebook is run for the first time, making it easy to set up a new Codebook Cloud account, set up a new device for an existing user (whether or not Codebook Cloud is being used), and a Setup Later option to go straight to the Master Password setup
- Upgrading users of existing installs will be presented with a Try Codebook Cloud view the first time they run this version
- There is a new Sync Log option on the Sync view, which will show logs Codebook Cloud if in use, and for the older, manual sync services
- The Backup Sync Key feature now supports saving your Sync Key to a file with the extension `.synckey`, in its contents the Sync Key is encrypted with your Master Password
- Adds support for importing a Sync Key from a `.synckey` file
- Full support for French, German, Italian, Japanese, Spanish, and Simplified Chinese translations, with thousands of missing and partial translations corrected alongside all the new strings and dialogs in this version – please let us know if we missed any!
- Fixes numerous bugs that would occur when Codebook entered the background state
- Fixes several edge-case bugs for processing sync changes for all sync services
