What’s new

Version 1.6.0 · Updated August 15, 2026

OFFLINE MAPS — North Park, pre-installed. • Satellite imagery at full zoom over the North Park basin — Walden, Rand, Gould, Cameron Pass and the Never Summer range — ready the moment you install, with no download and no signal. • Topographic, geologic, BLM public-land and Forest Service layers pre-installed across the same area, reaching out to Steamboat, the Poudre canyon and Laramie. • The app is a fraction of its former download size despite the added map detail, so it installs faster and works over cellular. BLUETOOTH & MESH — rebuilt. • See every radio. Radios already connected to your iPhone were invisible before; they now appear in an "Other radios" list on the connection card, so you can switch without disconnecting first. • Pairing that works. The PIN screen no longer disappears while you're reading the code off your radio, and cancelling it no longer triggers a cascade of repeat prompts. • Messages send. Retrying a failed message and composing a direct message both used a path with no retry and no readiness check, so they could fail the instant you tapped send. Every send path now waits for the link and retries properly. • Honest status. The connection card tells you when a radio is connected but silent, instead of showing a healthy green card. Plus: node lists show real last-heard times, direct-message encryption badges tell the truth, and low-battery alerts fire on connect.
