Added
- Willman 1 (Beth Willman Galaxy) added to the star catalog — an ultra-faint dwarf satellite
galaxy of the Milky Way, notable for its extreme dark-matter dominance and tidal disruption
(#736) - Info cards for 24 named stars and 41 constellations — these objects now display educational
text cards with discovery notes, mythology, and key facts
(#708) - App-specific language — users can now set Sky Map's display language independently of their
device's system language via Settings → Language
(#760) - Auto-level horizon (manual mode, disabled by default) — after releasing a gesture the view
can spring back to level; toggle in Settings → Sensor settings
(#674) - Location warning — a notice is shown on startup when no location has been set, so first-time
users understand why the sky may not match their view
(#675) - Sensor damping preference labels now include explanatory hints
Changed
- Search autocomplete results are now capitalized — object names in the suggestion list match
the casing used in info cards
(#763,
fixes #748) - Search results returned in alphabetical order — previously results appeared in an
indeterminate hash-map order
(#750) - "Location set by fusion" toast removed — the message was confusing and no longer meaningful
(#741) - Analytics event schema overhauled — cleaner event taxonomy for better sliceability
(#768) - Updated Play Store / app launcher icon
Fixed
- Willman 1 was absent from search results after being added to the catalog — binary protobuf
regenerated to include it
(#749) - Info card tap threshold now scales correctly with the current zoom level, so objects are
tappable at any zoom
(#707,
fixes #646) - Double-encoded
&entities in translated string resources corrected
(#739)
