Reitti 2.4.0: One-Click Setup, UI Upgrades, and More!
Hello everyone,
I'm thrilled to release Reitti 2.4.0, which brings some fantastic new features focused on making setup and daily use much easier. My personal highlight in this release is the new one-click configuration for popular tracking apps, a feature inspired directly by community feedback!
🎉 New Features
One-Click App Configuration
A user on Lemmy mentioned how great it would be to have auto-configuration for tracking apps. I was hesitant at first, but after looking into it, I'm happy to say it's now a reality! You can now configure GPSLogger, OwnTracks, and Overland to talk to your Reitti instance with the simple press of a button from the Settings page. This should make getting started easier than ever.
- Implemented in PR #449.
Unified Menu & Magic Link Logout
I've introduced a unified main navigation menu across the app. This brings two key improvements:
- If you've accessed a shared page via a magic link, you'll now have a clear "Logout" option.
- It creates a consistent experience everywhere and significantly improves navigation on mobile devices, especially on pages like Settings.
- Implemented in PR #439.
Sorting Options for Memories
As you create more Memories, keeping them organized becomes more important. You can now sort your Memories list by start date, title, or creation date (ascending or descending) to quickly find what you're looking for.
- Implemented in PR #443.
API Token Selection for App Integration
I've fixed an annoying issue for users with multiple API tokens. Previously, the app integration instructions would always use the most recently created token. Now, if you have more than one token, a dropdown menu will appear, allowing you to select the correct one to generate the setup URL.
- Implemented in PR #444.
Collection of Elevation Data
Looking toward the future, I have a goal to eventually introduce 3D maps. As a first step, Reitti will now begin collecting altitude data as part of the raw location points whenever it's provided by your tracking app.
- Implemented in PR #446.
🛠️ Other Changes & Improvements
- Docs: I've added a direct link to the Overland setup guide in the main
READMEfile for better visibility. (PR #445) - Translations: As always, a huge thanks to the community and @weblate for keeping the translations up to date! (PR #433)
I hope you enjoy these new features that make Reitti easier to set up and use. Thanks for your continued support and feedback!
