TeslaLauncher V2 (v1.3.2)

This update focuses heavily on the visual navigation experience, bringing the map UI closer to professional OEM navigation systems, while squashing a critical routing bug discovered in real-world testing.

🎨 Visual & UI Enhancements

  • Live Traffic Congestion Colors: The navigation route is no longer a solid line! The app now parses live traffic data and dynamically color-codes the route segments (Blue for clear, Orange for moderate delays, and Red/Dark Red for heavy traffic or standstills).
  • Smart Camera Padding (Forward View): When shifted into Drive ("D"), the vehicle marker (puck) automatically shifts to the bottom third of the screen. This drastically increases your forward visibility on the map, eliminating wasted screen space showing the road you've already driven. Works seamlessly across both Mapbox and Google Maps engines.

🐛 Critical Bug Fixes

  • Infinite Rerouting Loop Resolved: Fixed a major bug in the GeoJSON parser where fragmented traffic segments caused the app to lose track of the route after the first intersection. This stops the app from infinitely recalculating the route and spamming the Mapbox API.
  • Navigation Instructions Sync: Addressed an issue where turn-by-turn text instructions would freeze or constantly reset due to the aforementioned rerouting loop. Instructions will now flow perfectly until you reach your destination.

⚠️ CRITICAL INSTALLATION NOTICE: NEW APP SIGNATURE ⚠️
If you are upgrading from a version older than v1.3.1, please note that the app is signed with a new developer key. You MUST completely uninstall your current version of TeslaLauncher V2 before installing this update. (Note: Uninstalling will reset your saved settings and downloaded offline maps). If you already have v1.3.1 installed, you can simply update over it normally.

📥 Installation Instructions

  1. Uninstall the old version (if you are on v1.3.0 or older).
  2. Download TeslaLauncherV2_v1.3.2.apk from the Assets below.
  3. Install the new APK on your Android device.
  4. Reconfigure your Bluetooth OBD MAC address and preferred Map Engine in the Settings menu (if you performed a clean install).
