This is a continuation of Featherweight Tracker updates from the Build 127 thread found here:
https://www.rocketryforum.com/threads/featherweight-tracker-update-build-127.155873/
I added a post at the end of that thread so people get a "notification of post" and then can move on to this next thread. I created a build130+ public link that I think resolves the Dark Mode and iPad issue seen in Build 130. If we confirm them fixed without other issues, I'll make the standard releases point to them so other users get them as well. The public link for build 131 is:
https://testflight.apple.com/join/1uxEaYG4
Note that if you install via this link only, it may expire in 90ish days. The standard public link will always point to the current build. [These pre-releases let people move to the next build but still back out if they encounter any issues.]
For Build 132+, we are working on "observer mode" that allows you to tell your iPhone and Ground Station "tell me about trackers currently active in the flight area". I'll get bonus points if you can point your phone at the pads and it tells you which rockets are at the pad that have Featherweight Trackers... It will then allow you to easily select the tracker / frequency and "listen in" as they launch. [I can honestly say I'm not sure if it will cause confusion if 5 phones in the LCO area are all calling out flight data in different dialects / genders as the rocket launch... ]. If I get time, I will also include the auto KML conversion when 'sharing files'.
