2022.11.0
Better segment interactions, better provisioning and better updates
Better segment interactions
Interacting with the map has gotten more intuitive with this version of Valetudo.
Instead of having to hit a small triangle, you can now tap on the whole segment to select it.
Instead of having to look for a tiny bit of blue color inside that small triangle, the whole segment will now light up on selection.
Additionally, the map now prevents stuff such as selecting a segment when there is already a Zone pending for improved UX
Note for users with a robot that supports the GoToLocationCapability:
To place a GoTo marker with Valetudo 2022.11.0 and up, you simply have to use a long-press instead.
Better provisioning
The provisioning page has been extended to show Wi-Fi scan results if supported by your robot and deployment.
Don't be confused by the initial lack of scan results. Scanning can be a bit slow at times.
Furthermore, multiple issues that might've caused the Wi-Fi provisioning to fail and require a reboot have been fixed as well.
Better updates
The updater now tries to update using the much smaller UPX-compressed Valetudo binaries if there is not enough space for a regular one.
Fortunately those builds have almost no downsides apart from the initial Valetudo startup taking a few more seconds.
This change makes it possible for some low storage robots to use the inbuilt updater.
Misc
This version contains a workaround for an issue with Chrome and >= 107 that randomly breaks all map interactions.
If you don't want to update Valetudo to fix that, consider switching to Firefox.
Actually you should probably switch to Firefox regardless of this issue.
And lastly there's now a user feedback toast when saving virtual restrictions.
Previously there was no way of knowing if virtual restriction changes had been persisted.
