* Telemetry logging to SD card.
* Text-to-speech announcements of flight state just like AltosUI (PC Software)
* Monitoring frequency selection.
* Google Maps view of airframe location
* Bearing, Elevation and Distance given relative to android device, not launch pad.

Brilliant to be able to check all statu's from the phone plugging a Teledongle via an OTG or a TeleBT . Flight announcements can be pushed clealy through the PA via microphone. Maps and vocal heading guidance makes finding the rocket easy.

Looks good for recovery and ground testing. Have not used for a launch yet, but the local club's sites are already included for offline maps. Using Pixel with current patches, but the app opens with a warning about Android version incompatibility. No errors though, so far.

Walked me right to my rocket which had landed 1.5 miles away in the sagebrush. Never would have found it otherwise.
