- Fixed how Signal Noise severity is calculated on the Band Conditions tab. Somehow, I don't think S20+ constitutes good operating conditions! Thank you to the sun for this bug report. - Made a few tweaks to the contents of the APRS reference page.

* NEW: Slim Jim and J-Pole antenna calculators with visual diagrams * NEW: Snooze notifications when you need a break * Improved notification settings interface * Widget UI fixes * Bug fixes and stability improvements

* Fixed a rare crash related to callsign lookup and saving/editing favorites If you aren't already on 1.6+, there are a ton of new features, including smoother animations, VoiceOver support, and an in-app help/FAQ section. Check it out!

* Added a Help & FAQ section in Settings with answers to common questions. * Added smooth transitions and animations throughout the app. * Fixed an issue where Live Spots wouldn't load immediately after onboarding. * Fixed the Conditions tab briefly showing Band Conditions before respecting your startup preference. * Fixed the widget sometimes showing stale data when the main app wasn't running * Some fixes around notifications

1.6 is all about accessibility! --- * Color adjustments all around the app to meet WCAG contrast guidelines. The band colors now match those on QRZ. * Full VoiceOver support across the app. If you use VoiceOver, you'll get curated readouts of band conditions, spots, etc. I'm really interested in feedback here, as I'm sighted and can only do so much through the accessibility tools while coding. * All color-coded conditions have icons indicating good/OK/bad for folks who are colorblind Other features --- * Added additional solar and geomagnetic indices. * New appearance setting: choose Light, Dark, or Auto mode. * Bug fixes around location-finding. * The summary card at the top of Live Spots now shows the furthest grid, its country, and the bands you can find it on. Closest spot was removed because it was always your own grid! * Added a new reference page about solar and geomagnetic indices.

* New notification sounds! There are separate ones for DXCC notifications and band notifications. Can you decode them?

* Band conditions are now provided from my own server. This was done to be a good steward to N0NBH. * Added a "Message from the Developer" section in Settings.

Fixes for the QRZ Logbook API * Added more detailed error messages when your login fails * Added some code behind the scene to clean up the api key before submitting Note: this feature requires a separate subscription with QRZ that includes XML data. If you already use your logbook in other apps, you should be able to use it here, too.

* Notifications! -- Specify bands and DXCC entities of interest, then get notified when they appear in your spots. -- Customize sensitivity thresholds and cooldowns per entity — get alerted on a single spot of a rare DXCC, but require more activity for common ones. -- Limited to 20 DXCC alerts while I monitor server load. * The DXCC Reference page now shows live activity. -- Each entity card displays which bands are currently active in your spots. -- Use the new 'Active' filter to see only workable entities, or tap through from Live Spots to jump straight there. -- You can also manage your DXCC notification settings directly from each entity card. * Live Spots filter improvements: filters now live in a dedicated sheet, and active filters appear as chips you can tap to quickly remove.

* Added 2 new band plans: Australia and New Zealand * Change to how server status is fetched Happy New Year!

Added 2 new band plans: Australia and New Zealand Happy New Year!

* Some behind the scene changes to how QRV connects with the Live Spots API * Fixed a capitalization bug when searching callsigns via HamQTH * Fixed an issue where you couldn't remove the QRZ Logbook tip * Fixed an issue where certain QRZ API keys might not authenticate Happy New Year, everyone. It's been a real treat seeing QRV take off like it has.

* Prefixes are now searchable in the DXCC Reference page. * Fixed a crash in the Maidenhead reference view if the user entered invalid characters. * More fixes to subscription visibility in the Settings page

* 3 new reference sections: Signal Reports, APRS Commands, and Prosigns * Added a battery calculator: get estimated run time based on your power draw and battery chemistry. * Added callsign prefixes to the DXCC, ITUz, and CQz page. * Entries in the Reference page are now sorted alphabetically

* If you subscribed to QRV monthly or annual, you can now view and modify your subscription in the Settings tab. * You can also upgrade to the lifetime subscription without waiting for your current one to expire.

* Band Plans! I've added detailed band plans in the Reference tab for the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada covering all of the most common bands. - If you note any errors or omissions, please let me know! * You can now view your grid square on a map in the Reference tab and learn more about how they're derived. You can also search by grid or GPS coordinates. * If you hate doing time conversions, you can add a small UTC clock for the Conditions tab. Find this option in Settings. * Some bug fixes related to purchases and subscriptions.

Fixed an error with QRZ and HamQTH authentication. If your session has expired, the app will try to re-authenticate you. If that fails, a login prompt will be shown.

If you've denied location access, you will now see relevant info in Live Spots. QRV does not need location access to run, but Live Spots requires it!

* Did a lot of optimization on the Live Spots logic to improve performance and loading. * The large widget now shows a clear indication of when grids and operators aren't available, instead of displaying zeros. Spot counts by band are always current. * Premium users will now see the option in Settings to "register" your callsign. If someone searches you up in-app, there will be a badge and note under your name. * Fixed a few typos and UI inconsistencies

For Everyone: * More reliable Band Conditions updates * QRZ Logbook integration: See your QSO history when looking up callsigns, including which bands you've worked them on and confirmation status (requires separate QRZ XML Logbook subscription) Premium Features: * Live spots from your grid in callsign search: See active bands for favorited callsigns on the Lookup tab, plus recent spots for any callsign you search * 2 new lock screen widgets: Large widget shows top 4 bands by spot count; small widget shows #1 band and its share of total spots * Widgets now get fresh data even when the app isn't open!

Amateur radio operators know that you can't plan for everything! While working on v1.2, I ran into some unexpected trouble. - On the evening of 2025-11-29 (EDT), HamQTH went down, and the app did not handle it gracefully if logged into both lookup services - Added some timeout logic on the backend to better handle situations like this - Added a notification if the lookup is taking longer than expected

Added - Power/current/voltage calculator --- Get quick calculations of all 3 --- Get cable gauge recommendations based on length --- Quickly convert between AWG and mm-squared Fixed: - Phonetic alphabet was cut off on some small/narrow devices - A few other UI tweaks here and there for consistency
