6.0.4 - 11th December 2024
- Go offline without internet – We’ve added even more places where the app will be able to catch when you’ve lost internet and allow you to switch into offline mode.
- “Add to trip” performance improvements – Some users reported it was slow to add places to their trips and sometimes this slowness resulted in duplications or error messages. This update includes performance improvements to make adding places faster.
- Better ‘Recent trips’ options when adding places – We increased the number of displayed trips from 5 to 10 and changed the logic for what trips will show. Now you will see your 10 most recently opened or edited trips in this list.
- Additional checks for previous Android purchases – We’ve added an automated process that will help more users who have previously purchased WikiCamps for Android to access the app without seeing the payment screen.
- Other minor bug fixes and improvements – We’ve tidied up the display of some UI, including the map settings in trip planner and changing the ‘return’ key functionality when adding trip notes, improved error messaging when signing in or signing up, and applied some minor performance tuning across a few areas of the app.
6.0.3 - 3rd December 2024
- Go offline without internet – We’ve fixed the bug that was stalling the app before it could load the menu when the app was in online mode, but the device had no internet. We know that this caused some concerns, but you will now have the option of switching into offline mode when you’re caught off-guard without a connection.
- Text on satellite map – A map styling change in Google maps was hiding the text from our earlier release but we have added the text for places, streets, etc. when viewing the satellite map.
- Hide pins in trip map – Say goodbye to filtering for impossible combinations on the Explore page just to show your route with no pins! You can now switch off pins inside of the Plan map - Head to the map settings in Plan to try it out.
- “Add collection” icon is more familiar – Many users reported finding it difficult to locate the new “Add to collection” button, so we’ve changed it to a more familiar heart icon. You will see the icon filled in when a site has been added to your collections. We know you are still missing the heart icons on the map (we hear you!). We are working on a solution. With so many options available to save a site to, we want to make sure the map does not become too busy, crowded or confusing to look at, while ensuring you can still identify which sites you have saved and, if possible, in which collection! Stay tuned for more updates on this.
- Fuel economy description placement – The placement of these descriptions was causing some confusion. We’ve corrected the field subtitles now, so please check you’ve got the economy and cost in the right places when setting your trip details.
- Moved 4WD access to warnings & limitations filter group – A popular request was to change the behaviour of this filter to exclude rather than include, so we have moved it to the warnings & limitations group.
- Saved filters apply instantly – Saved filters are there to help you explore quickly, so we’ve made some tweaks to allow them to immediately apply and return you to the map when you select on of your saved filter sites.
- Improved loading on some trip planner pages – Some changes on our end to help trips load a little smoother.
- Limited impact of text scaling settings to prevent UI spillover – We’ve made some changed to the base text sizing in the app and modified how much the text can scale to balance the UI better throughout the app. This should help prevent blocking progress that was resulting from interactive elements being pushed off screen.
- Other minor bug fixes and improvements – We’ve tidied up the display of some UI, including the site icons and pins on the map, improved error messaging when signing in or signing up, and applied some minor performance tuning across a few areas of the app.
6.0.1 and 6.0.2 - 21st November 2024
- Minor bug fixes and improvements – We applied changes to the purchase checking for Android users with older purchases of WikiCamps and released some other bug fixes and performance adjustments.
