Release 1.6.2 is only for the full version of the app, free app stays at version 1.6.1.
There is an error in this version that leads to the app crash when you have song playing in the ipod that either has no song title or an artist name set and you rotate to the landscape orientation. The fix has been submitted to Apple and should become available today. Meanwhile please just avoid having such music or audiobooks items in your iPod in speedometer when using it and willing to use the app in the landscape mode. This is affecting only users with a jailbreak as otherwise you can't get songs like this into your library.
Sounds added are Plink, Till beep, Buzz, Fast beeps and Four high beeps. You can set them in "Advanced Settings" > "Alert Sounds":
The intent was to provide "milder" sounds when compared to the current ones.
Allows to start or stop the track, create new waypoint or change the mode:
Modes are fast and straightforward way to transform speedometer to a tool of your choice. Heads-up, Taximeter, Rally Computer, Map, Waypoints monitor (e.g. speed cameras), Full screen map or speed, G-Force monitor or you can just resort to Default at any moment - that's all available via force touch on the app icon or MENU>MODES:
Tap on a row with a mode to select it. Every row provides also an information button to learn more about each mode:
If you want to read more on each mode right now, here are the links:
Default speed display • Waypoints monitor (e.g. speed cameras) • Rally computer • Taximeter • Map • Heads up speed display • Full screen speed display • Full screen map display • G Force acceleration monitor
This version adds off perfect time monitor and handy controls to adjust distance or reset/pause counters. Put together, it all created a foundation for the new rally computer experience:
To get to all of this, just do MENU>MODES>"Rally computer". Hope speedometer will see more rallies now and will help you win, of course!
Here is a closer look (in this case we are 1.3 seconds away from the perfect speed/time and being faster):
G-Force monitor comes with a MENU>MODES>"G-Force monitor" (or via force touch on the app icon) and is shown in place of the speed limits. G-Force monitor calibrates itself as you drive to deduce what is the horizontal force and which direction is forward and back. "New session" button allows to restart the measurement session by reseting max forward and braking acceleration values and getting speedometer ready for the new calibration cycle.
This release brings a lot for waypoints:
Now you can grab waypoints from the speedo's library and the whole alerting inception process became easier! You'll see for yourself after choosing MENU>MODES>"Waypoints monitor"
Only to mention major ones here:
‣ Fixed navigation to waypoints via Waze, Google, Navigon and others.
‣ Fixed MapQuest map and downloading offline maps from providers that are not supporting ssl
‣ Fixed showing weather information in infotainment.
‣ Improved compatibility of export files in KMZ and GPX format with other apps.
‣ Apple map can now show traffic information.
‣ Updated Google map to the latest version.
‣ Enabled Apple's bitcode for every bit of the app.
A lot of small bugs were exterminated and memory/performance improvements have been made.
