Ratings & Reviews

  • This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

Version 1.2 is here, and it’s our biggest quality update yet. Lichtblick now delivers fresher widget data even when the app hasn’t been opened, clearer and more consistent daylight messaging across the app and notifications, and a refined dashboard experience with improved card layouts and navigation. We also expanded localization support (including French and Spanish) and shipped many stability and performance improvements behind the scenes. Thanks for all your feedback, it’s helping Lichtblick get better with every release.
