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.

Install / update

Sideload the APK below (allow "install unknown apps"). Signed with the same key as before,
so it updates in place — your rides and Garage data are kept.

Auto-updates: if you're on 1.1+, the app prompts you in-app. You can also track this repo
in Obtainium for update notifications.
