Device/Status/Telemetry overlays allow read-only viewing for Guest/RO, but write actions (edits/toggles/off/sync/reboot) are disabled visually and blocked on tap with a “RW/Admin required” popup.

  • MAP; tiles now can be donwloaded while you are connected to WiFi (when enabled in Mgmt / UI -> Map). If there is a SDCard present, it will automatically cache the tiles on the SDCard in the correct folder structure for offline use! (Indicator not yet supported!)
  • Mgmt / UI -> Map; added info text about tile caching when WiFi is connected.
  • Mgmt / UI -> Map; changed Map Tile folder structure from SD-Card.
  • Mgmt / Messages; Addeed Auto Retry / Auto Reset Path / Direct Message Acks / Mark Delivered faster (like you know from the companion APP) but need to be setup separately because not connected to companion!
  • MSGs / new button in Message "Reply" to quickly reply to the last DM or Channel message sender.
  • Sync settings to SDCard and load from SDCard on boot (if present) for easy backup/restore of settings.
  • MAP; GPS Accuracy Circle Implementation - when GPS accuracy is available, a light blue circle is drawn around the GPS position indicating the accuracy radius (HDOP-based accuracy estimation (HDOP × 2.0 meters)).

Changed / Improved

  • MAP; improved hop-count display in Contact detail view (shows "Direct" for 0 hops now and "1 hop", "2 hops", ... for others).
  • Mgmt / Advert; neighbor adverts refactored to show more relevant information, and added the possibility to add discovered nodes as Contacts directly from the neighbor adverts list.
  • Mgmt / Advert; changed button text "Advert Zero Hop" to "Advert - Direct"
  • Mgmt / UI - moved Sound settings to Mgmt / UI for better grouping.
  • Mgmt / Global - moved Mgmt / Admin into this menu for better grouping.

  • GUI; finally you can switch between BLE / WiFi or turn both completely off (without reboot!).

  • MSGS; changed the top statusbar text from "msgs" to "Channels" and from "users" to "DMs" for better clarity.
  • Contacts / soting; when you tap the contacts tab to cycle through sort orders, the view will automatically scroll to the top of the newly sorted list, making it much more user-friendly!

  • MAP; improved GPS accuracy circle rendering (smoother edges).
  • Contacts / Repeater Admin Menu; improved to be allowed to login with empty password.
  • Discovered (Contacts) - Discovered Contacts list is now only sorted by "last heard" (newest on top) to make it easier to find recently discovered nodes for adding them as Contacts.
