Northstar 1.2
Northstar 1.2
Reliability, Garage, and dash-map improvements.
⚡ Instant zoom on the dash
- Zooming in/out on the dash map is now instant — it scales what's already on screen
and sharpens as the new tiles load, instead of going blank while they fetch.
🔌 Connecting to the dash is much more reliable
- The pairing handshake now auto-retries instead of failing on the first hiccup, with
plain-language status, and a clear Try again on error. - Works with any
RE_*Tripper — it discovers your dash and remembers it.
🗺️ Smoother map on the dash
- Retuned the stream to the dash decoder's real ceiling — fixes the brief pixelation.
- Fixed the "braking slows the map down" effect.
📏 More accurate ride tracking
- Tighter ride distance, and the odometer auto-increments after every ride.
🛠️ Garage, rebuilt
- Visit-based service logging: one entry covers everything done in a visit — tick
multiple items, mark it Company or DIY, set odometer + cost, attach the invoice. - Free-service tracker: the 4 scheduled RE services (500 / 5,000 / 10,000 / 15,000 km).
- Maintenance intervals respect km or months, with due reminders.
🧰 Glovebox vault
- Store insurance / PUC / RC / licence / warranty / RSA docs and get expiry
reminders before they lapse. Plus a bike-identity card and a manual specs reference.
🔄 Automatic updates
- The app now checks for new releases on launch and offers a one-tap in-app update.
