Offline routing graphs now load on Android below 14 (#175)
Change the destination right from the route picker
Search the settings from a magnifier in the top bar
Saved places show on the map while you browse
Lists can use any emoji as their icon
Tap a place name to read all of it, long-press or use the share menu to copy it
Street View: keep the map puck on the pano you moved to, and cap the date list
Give the voice library Use/Delete buttons a D-pad focus ring
Dropped pins now center the map on the pin, not the last place you tapped
Street View: the time-travel date list scrolls instead of spilling over

Replay: play the reroute chime at recorded route swaps
Nav declutter: water names come back; neighbourhood titles stay stripped
Car-mode declutter: water, park and neighbourhood titles join the strip
Nav camera: split the follow time constants for a thick-liquid feel
Trips become a flight recorder: speech, accuracy, frame pacing, battery
Nav: de-hitch the cross-street pass; record the off-route flag per fix
Voice: fix the take-exit mangle; trips record which build made them
Nav voice: "half a mile"; labels hug the route and the turn target keeps its name
Nav labels: only streets the route actually crosses; replays stop sensor jitter
Street View: full D-pad operation (engage, look around, walk, control ring)
Nav card: headline speaks the same words as the voice
Nav: speak only the primary sign destination, thin the bubbles further
Nav: fade the cross-street bubbles with zoom instead of popping

Update README.md
Street View now opens inside Vela instead of bouncing you to Google's app
Landscape gets Google's one-line header: half-width search bar with the chips beside it
POI icons hold still when you open and close a place, and the compass is no longer under the layers button
Steps list swipes down to close, and stray map taps can't add stops while the route picker or steps are open
Vela has a website now: a one-page tour at pimpinpumpkin.github.io/Vela

Reroute faster after a wrong turn + swipe down to close the steps overview
Copy Google's ambient label density + fix review counts zeroing out on cold starts
Dense areas load with steady frames and the POI icons stop shuffling
Slow deviations reroute, tunnels dead-reckon, and the nav map declutters
Docs: the gl follow-up landed and the sort/tab literal split is recorded
Results follow your region, and the last English-only labels localize
Memory: half the heap under place churn (Coil cap, stream-parse, WebView reaping)
README privacy section tells the truth about in-drive traffic checks
Map taps pick the icon nearest your finger, not the renderer's first pick
Tapping a POI in a dense strip mall opens that POI, not its popular neighbor
The free-drive dot stops jolting every second, and north-up actually holds
The translation check warns on gaps instead of failing the build
Free-drive follow dead-reckons between fixes, so it glides like navigation
Free-drive follow is north-up for real, and navigation gets a route overview button
Nav camera shows the road ahead, step preview stops fighting the follow camera, and in-drive re-checks get a privacy toggle
Nav reliability: traffic fetch retries, and abbreviated fallback routes heal themselves
Attention cards are amber, not baseline pink
Faster-route buttons stay readable under Material You
The arrival ETA follows live traffic even when the route never changes
Free-drive speed box sits down by the locate button
Translations move to Weblate, and the docs stop miscounting languages

Nav search panel: closes when you grab the map, rides to the top while typing
Stop picker polish: hint banner follows the theme, picker header slims to a mode label
Starting nav clears the planning search's leftover results
Nav search field: arrow keys escape to the chips below
Layers panel is a VelaMenu so key-only devices can use it
Nav search and volume float on the map, and the search takes free text

Menus show up much more reliably
Vela tells you which side your destination is on, sheet buttons share one circle look, and the README slims down
Drag the route chooser from anywhere, sticky travel mode, wider zoomed-out search, filters clear map pins too, bookmark save icon, circled directions close
The minimized Start button waits for the chooser body to be nearly gone before growing in
The route chooser now minimizes under your finger with real inertia
Picking a time that already passed now says so instead of silently snapping to now
Search along route chips look tappable and you cannot schedule a trip in the past
The directions buttons match the rest of the app and estimated times drop the tilde
Depart at and arrive by feel deliberate now, the reviews tab gets a real rating histogram, menu photos carry their dates again, and the minimized card no longer shows map under it
Update the project notes for the sheet fold changes
The place card lands its minimize without the last moment hop, the results list folds its filter chips away with the sheet, and menu photos show when they were uploaded
Minimizing a scrolled place card scrolls it back to the top so the name is never stuck behind the handle

A pushed notice can be a pop-up now, not just a map card
The viewers paint their whole window, killing the last see-through strips
The place card's extras slide away, and the viewers claim the whole screen
The place card fades as it minimizes, and the header circles stop lying

Ending navigation returns to a flat north-up map, and POI layers stop racing
Star button becomes the save menu, gallery survives rotation, breathing room
The place page catches up to the rest of Vela's look

Picking a result opens full size again, and the bar stacks its two lines
Every POI label can pick a clear side of its icon, not just the map results

Navigation now buzzes when it reroutes, not just when a turn is coming
The route chooser swipes down to a slim bar so the route is visible
The results list rides its throws, and back exits the search in one press
Search results draw as named POI icons instead of red pins
