So as you can see, the main screen of djay on the iPhone 5 now includes UI elements that had to be accessed from a different screen on previous iPhone models.

Some of the other improvements made to djay include integration with the iTunes Store with in-app browse, preview, and purchase, support of multi route audio on iOS 6, key lock and time stretching, high precision analysis settings, and an improved library, speed slider, and bluetooth compatibility.
