Speed limits now come from Overpass, with class-based inference (motorway/trunk/residential/living_street) for the many roads that have no explicit `maxspeed` tag, 3 rotating mirrors for reliability, and support in free-roam driving (not just active navigation).<br/>- **Recenter button** now pulls a fresh one-shot GPS fix instead of reusing the last stream sample, so it snaps to your *actual* current position.<br/>- **Compass/heading button** is a real toggle in both navigation and free-roam — free-roam heading-up mode now rotates the map with the magnetometer instead of doing nothing.<br/>- **Secondary instruction panel** (next-turn preview) enlarged ~100% — bigger icon, bigger text, easier to read at a glance.<br/><br/>### 🔊 Voice<br/>- Turn instructions and hazard/ZTL alerts no longer cut each other off mid-sentence. Maneuvers are priority (interrupt immediately); ambient alerts queue and wait their turn, keeping only the most recent one.<br/>- Fixed a race in audio ducking where a stale utterance could release focus meant for a new one, breaking the &#34;duck other media&#34; behavior.<br/><br/>### 🔒 Security<br/>- Nostr events are now cryptographically verified (event hash + BIP-340 signature) before being trusted — a malicious relay could previously fabricate road reports or confirmations under any pubkey.<br/>- One vote per identity per event confirmation (was previously unlimited/re-countable).<br/>- Local settings (favorites, search history) are now AES-256 encrypted at rest, key held in the Android Keystore.<br/>- `debugPrint` is silenced in release builds — no more street names/coordinates/TTS phrases in logcat.<br/>- Event comments capped at 500 chars to prevent relay-side payload abuse.<br/><br/>### 🎬 Onboarding<br/>- Welcome page now shows the real app logo and a privacy notice recommending a VPN (Mullvad, Bitcoin-payable) given that road reports propagate over Nostr.<br/>- nsec login page now shows the same security disclaimer as the profile screen.<br/>- Fixed the Kokoro voice download completion indicator — it was implemented but never actually triggered (listener was waiting on a stream event that never fires); now shows a white check on a green circle when the download finishes.<br/>- GrapheneOS guidance now mentions setting location permission to &#34;Allow all the time,&#34; not just &#34;while in use.&#34; 2026-07-11T23:34:32Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsvrqpfekdax8k56ewsv0w6q672zy4myv9806jm6j7ffpj5u9qlymczyrpe9dahdd63pd6l0jsdfyaxg9el739alt9zqa80adhzxgvcmq88g04p4m3 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqqq9mny2p0630st8wqgug07mnxvqz6k6xyvj5re84lg360tgfxegrmz6lf'>nevent1q…z6lf</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>You are already! 2026-07-09T18:40:55Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsqs3h2vcnnz2hfuztn8mzlwuqmvvxzdnjx8j2cx8j06gr5kek7nlqzyrpe9dahdd63pd6l0jsdfyaxg9el739alt9zqa80adhzxgvcmq88gfghvl5 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqqqrzdhe34dw72keyghvgp7wrk5ux42x0ph4skks0pjnn8ez0txql42nzm'>nevent1q…2nzm</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Hopefully it&#39;ll be a reliable app. <br/>I started this out of spite of Google Maps, an app that I love.

I am still working on the istructions, they still come either too early or they overlap with each other, i gotta think of a logic to impart to be more precise. But the 3km alert I did it on purpose. When traveling long distances on highways, IMO it makes sense to have an early alert and then another alert 250m beforehand.<br/>The premature end is another thing that I&#39;m testing. This morning results were promising, but I only tested on a 5km city trip. <br/><br/>The annoying bug of starting on x road should be already fixed, but further testing is needed.<br/><br/>Great feedback overall, I&#39;m gonna work on those improvements.
