🗺️ Reitti v1.2.0 – Release Notes

We are excited to announce the release of Reitti v1.2.0! This update brings a host of new features, usability improvements, and several important bug fixes. Here’s what’s new:

🚀 New Features & Enhancements

🔗 Linkable User Settings

• The user settings page has received a UI update and now supports deep linking, making it easier to share or bookmark specific settings tabs and sections.
  #130

🔒 User Roles and Permission Model

• Reitti now supports user roles!
  Users are assigned roles that determine what they can access. For this release:
  • Admins can update profiles for other users.
  • Standard Users can only update their own settings.
• This is the foundation for more fine-grained permissions and features in the future.
  #133

🗺 Custom Map Tile Servers

• You can now configure custom map tile servers to use with Reitti!
  This enables greater flexibility for power users or organizations with self-hosted or specialized maps.
  See the README for setup instructions.
  #134

🏠 Home Location Fallback

• You can now define a home location in your user settings.
  When there’s no recent location data, Reitti will now show your home location instead, so your map always stays relevant.
  #139

⏪ Jump to Latest Data

• By user request, opening Reitti now jumps you to the latest available data if no specific date is preselected, making it easier to always see the most recent activity.

🖥️ Fullscreen Mode

🔄 Live Map Auto-Update

• It’s now possible for Reitti to automatically update the map view whenever new data arrives!
  • Enable this with the new Auto-Update button.
  • Reitti will switch to the current day, and update your map in real time as new location data is ingested.
  • Live update also works with multiple users displayed on the map.
