What's new
Cut early: the previous stable (0.4.1270) crashed on launch on some Android 10 devices and head units. That is fixed here.
- Fixed the launch crash from 0.4.1270.
- Searching from a close zoom keeps your view instead of flying out to frame every result.
- AMOLED true-black map, navigation overlays and route line (thanks to stickyfran).
- Every icon on the open places layer keeps its name: labels try four positions, not two.
- Icons in a dense strip of shops no longer hide each other when you zoom in close.
- The speed-limit badge and romanized road names now come from the downloaded region files, so they work offline without a routing graph.
- Reroutes no longer wait on Google once the open router has a route.
- Diagnostics exports record the network state, so a dropout is visible next to a failed fetch.
- Offline maps: a region download includes the map picture, and the intro says so.
- Canary release notes start with one line instead of a warning paragraph.
