A big Bluetooth rework, a sharper Side View, and a thermal bubble you can put where you like • We rebuilt how the app talks to your vario over Bluetooth. Connections come back far more reliably after a dropout, you can run more than one vario at once, and you choose per device whether to use the vario's own climb readings or the app's. If your vario reports temperature and humidity, you'll see those too. • The Side View got a proper cleanup — it's one widget now, with a switch for whether it follows your heading or the route to your next waypoint. Airspaces, contrast, and waypoint markers are all easier to read at a glance. • The thermal bubble is now a widget you can place wherever you like — it no longer has to sit in the middle of the map, so you can tuck it out of the way and keep your view clear. • Tap a pilot on the map for a lot more: navigate straight to them, mark them as a buddy, jump to their group, or grab a share link. • XContest does more than sync now — your flights upload to XContest straight from the app. • The terrain hillshade is now lit by the real sun position for the time of day, so the relief looks the way it actually does out there. • New true-black map style that's easier on the battery on OLED screens. • The Side View is much smoother now. It was quietly redoing a lot of work several times a second, which could make the whole app feel sluggish with it open — that's sorted. • When you replay a flight, your own marker shows as an arrow again instead of the walking icon. • Auto-recenter behaves better — it backs off the moment you pan, and stays put while you've got a menu open. • Voice you missed while the app was in the background now recovers properly instead of going quiet. • Tapping the compass does the right thing whether you're in north-up or track-up. • Vario connections rank devices more sensibly, so the app stops latching onto things that aren't your vario. • A keyed-up wake tap no longer fires push-to-talk by accident.
