Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?
- You can now configure an additional circle in the settings to watch the distance to shore for regions where anchoring too close to a shore is restricted. You can set the color for this new ring in the new Color Settings page, where you also can change some other colors.
- The recorded track can now be shown in 4 different colors, depending how old the trackpoints are. So e.g. the most recent 30 minutes of the track will be in yellow, while older trackpoints will be shown in a different color. The colors (iOS 14+ required) and the time thresholds can be edited (iOS 14+ required) in the new Color Settings page, where you can also disable this feature.
