Other recent big updates: • Full navigation functionality. • Alert banner "SignalScope" shows signal strength over time of the current priority alert. • Alert screen (portrait & landscape views). *Option to view classic or new alert screen with a tap of a button. • Alert screen banners showing detailed alert, false assist, POI, MyRadarIQ, over speed warnings and other detailed detector status information. • Navigation map zoom level customization. • Set detector mode from new alert screen. • Alternate Route selection with highway, and toll avoidance. • Navigation screen shows arrival time, distance & trip time remaining. • 'Show traffic' option while navigating. • 'Recent trip' quick selection. • Nearby points of interest selection. • Quick Nav selection from classic alert screen. • Quickly switch back from navigation screen to classic alert details screen. • “Free Drive” (map / no map) alert screen when not in navigation mode. • Free Drive without map display option (battery saver). • Posted speed limit displayed on main alert screen (US, CA, AU, NZ). • Customizable low speed muting based on PSL. • Updated main screen graphics and layout. • Updated MyRadarIQ meter and functionality. • Updated "ghost muted" graphics. • Updated graphics for alerts, silenced alerts, POI. • SpotLock engine version 03012026 - latest historical data. • Advanced false assist engine version 03012026 - latest 5+ years of historical data. If you liked R4 Companion before this release, you are going to LOVE it after! Spread the word, it is only going to get better. If you have an idea / suggestion you would like included in a future update, please visit https://crackedpixel.com/contact-us to let us know. Thanks! • MyRadarIQ™ - Threat assessment intelligent system for the radar companion series of apps. A new meter, visible at the top of the main alert screen, will show a graphical representation of the probability of a police presence (Ka or Laser) in the direction of your travel. Using your personal alert data, whenever a high probability exists for an encounter ahead, you will know about it well in advance of facing the actual threat. The meter will go from yellow (low threat), to orange (medium threat), to red (high threat) and flash on and off and a voice announcement will occur. The meter will also flash red when a Ka or Laser alert is actively being received to help draw attention to the alert. Probabilities are calculated down to the actual day of the week you are traveling, increasing the accuracy on any given day. • Instantly see your changes when modifying detector settings. • Flashes screen when an alert occurs. • Pair it and forget about it! It just works. *New* - Robust Bluetooth connection engine works seamlessly in the background to manage all your R4 devices. • Better support for background connections when switching between different R4 detectors. If you are running multiple R4s across multiple vehicles, this update is for you! • Added the option to have the radar detector's alert tones play through the app. • The app will read your detector's settings for each signal type's alert tone (1-12) and use the associated alert tone within the app for alerts. ***TIP: Setting the main volume for the detector to 0 on the main alert screen and enabling the detector alert tones, will eliminate the brief audio "blips" you would normally hear when a mute command is first sent to the detector. Only potential threats will then trigger audio through your speaker or audio system providing an extremely quiet ride.
