Migration from v1.0.0
- When upgrading from Genymotion 1.0.0 version, you will have to download again new virtual device images since existing ones cannot be used.
- Previously deployed virtual devices can still be used with new Genymotion v1.1.0 but new features will not be available.
- Older versions of Genymotion plugin for IntelliJ IDEA and Eclipse are not compatible with the new Genymotion 1.1.0 version. Make sure you update them to 1.0.1 version.
New features

- You can now rotate the device screen (when the application supports it) using the new rotation button.
- Depending on the device screen resolution, the rotation might be available on the main screen. Make also sure that the rotation is not locked in the Android options.
Menu button
- We have added a ‘menu’ button to the virtual device interface which corresponds to the one that some physical real devices have.
