2.0

Big release focused on notification reliability and live system visibility.

New

  • Live CPU / GPU badges in the top bar, fed by Frigate's /api/stats endpoint every 2 seconds. Tap either to open a full System Statistics panel with RAM, uptime, per-detector inference time and per-camera FPS.
  • Connection status widget: tap the INT or EXT badge for a live dialog with current URL, rolling latency graph, Wi-Fi state and current mode.
  • Notification deep-links by severity: alerts open /review?id=<id>, detections open /explore?event_id=<id> on Frigate 0.14+.
  • Per-event dedupe: a tracked object's new → update → end lifecycle now collapses to exactly one notification.
  • Custom dialog theme shared across all popups (stats, connection status, URL edit, update prompts).

Reliability

  • Foreground service switched to FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_SPECIAL_USE to sidestep the Android 14+ 6-hour cap that was killing the listener silently.
  • Partial WakeLock + high-perf WifiLock keep the WebSocket ping loop alive during doze.
  • 15-minute WorkManager watchdog revives the service if an OEM kills it.
  • Dismissing the persistent notification now re-posts it within ~1 second (Android 14+ made FGS notifications user-dismissable).
  • Force-reconnect on network regain: no more waiting up to 60 seconds of exponential backoff after a Wi-Fi flap.
  • Build hardened: detekt integrated into the build, numerous code-quality and null-safety fixes.

UI polish

  • Redesigned Settings as drill-down categories (Connection, Notifications, Downloads, Advanced) with fade transitions and a back arrow.
  • Goldman font on the toolbar title, matching the rest of the app suite.
  • Settings hides the gear icon when you're already inside.

Fixes

  • URLs without a scheme no longer crash the app; auto-prefixes http:// for internal, https:// for external.
  • Notification cameras picker summary was lying "All cameras selected" even when only a subset was active.
  • Permission denial UX no longer shows a misleading Wi-Fi snackbar when the user denies an unrelated permission (notifications, mic).
  • Update check respects the throttle on cold start; network or API failures now show a proper error instead of "No updates available".
