ARES Trinity: Taking over editing session:
​
ARES Touch now offers a way to manage the situation a file is being blocked for editing by another device.

You can request to get an active editor session when you are only allowed to open a shared file in read-only mode or you can accept/refuse a request for taking over an editing session from another user for a shared file. You will get a notification about each step of this procedure. The notification appears as a balloon. Tap on the button with the 3 dots in the balloon to see further actions available.

Stay tuned for new features in upcoming releases!
