VideoLAN today updated VLC for iOS with a slew of improvements, including a new design for iOS 7 as well as Google Drive and Dropbox features. You can download the new version now from Apple’s App Store.

The main highlights from the full changelog are as follows:

New UI for iOS 7.

New multi-touch gestures.

Google Drive integration and streaming from Dropbox.

Improved UPnP support including the ability to download files.

A start-up tutorial.

Re-written WiFi Upload.

Support for more streaming formats and protocols.

Improved decoders, adding support for HEVC / H.265 and VP9.

Improved library handling, especially for TV shows.

Improved privacy when using Passcode Lock.

We would argue that this release warrants a major version bump, but the team has dubbed this version 2.2.0. You can check out more details on how VLC for iOS has progressed since its re-release in July over on the documentation wiki.
