- [Roc] Optimization of Bluetooth communication battery consumption. This can add 4-5 hours of standard battery life during activity with Bluetooth enabled for sensor or smartphone connection.
- [GPS Devices] Automatic compass calibration. New calibration system that continuously adjusts the calibration. If the user detects a calibration mismatch, they can flip the device on the 3 axes at any time to recalibrate it (no need to go to Settings).
-
New waypoint display properties. Various characteristics (color, size, background, text...) can now be configured. Additionally, these properties are structured in an inheritance system that allows selecting the default display. See in detail.
- Roadbook points now have the same properties as waypoints and work with the same inheritance system.
- New default waypoint display. The new properties have been utilized to establish a clearer and more attractive default configuration.
- Improved control interface of the SeeMe system, with a clearer status system and a new Settings section that provides all the necessary information to know the status of the service.
- Improved visibility of direction arrows on the navigated track, and a general increase in the number of direction arrows to improve their visibility.
-
Vector maps are always displayed on top, so they are superimposed on others and their information can be combined with the background.
-
The 'Toggle map' tool ignores maps that are not being displayed, preventing seemingly ineffective clicks.
- After creating a waypoint, it will be shown on the map so its location can be verified.
-
The highlighted speed in the track properties window is now the Average speed instead of the Moving average speed.
-
Geocaches marked as ‘found’ (properties > field notes > status) are marked gray instead of being hidden
- New 'last access' option in 'Sort by', which sorts tree files (e.g., routes) according to the last time they were opened.
-
Preselect text when editing waypoint name (easy deletion)
-
Improved visibility of the cross when selecting a location by map
-
Fixed small heading arrow in Pin Mode

[GPS Devices] Improvements in managing available battery percentage.
- [GPS Devices] Added 'Cancel' option when activating external GPS.

In detail
New waypoint display properties
New waypoint display properties have been added and existing ones regrouped to achieve optimal and configurable display of waypoints and roadbook points.
These properties are within an inheritance system ('configuration > file > waypoint'), so if a property is not defined in a specific waypoint, its value is searched for in the file it belongs to. If it is not defined in the file either, it is searched for in the general configuration.
If we want to modify the appearance of waypoints, we can do it from the general configuration, and it will affect all waypoints that do not have specific information configured. With this system, it is no longer necessary to configure each waypoint, making it much easier to adjust the appearance of all waypoints at any time.
We can find all these properties at each of these 3 configuration levels:
- General configuration: Menu > File > Configuration > Waypoints > Default values
Note: These configurations sync with the NubeGO, so they will be automatically established on all synchronized devices. - File properties (waypoints/track) > Default waypoint values
(This section replaces the old 'Modify all waypoints' function) - Waypoint properties > 'View' section
In this last image, we can see the list of all configurable properties.
Values that are not defined, and therefore taken from the upper level, will be marked in parentheses as (default).
If at any point we want to revert to the default value for a property, just right-click and select 'take default values'.
Note: The 'Text background transparency' property depends on the 'Text color' property. The Transparency property will only appear if the Color property is specifically defined in that list. In other words, if the Transparency property does not appear, set a value for the Text color, and then it will appear.
On the other hand, roadbook points (or track waypoints) have incorporated all waypoint properties, so now they have many more options for customization, including the new 'View' properties.
Deviation and junction points of variants are marked in a special way (blue) and do not allow configuration.
The general configuration that applies to roadbook points (track waypoints) is the same as for waypoints (Configuration > Waypoints > Default values).
