• Removed the white tint wash: the blurred background now determines the glass color (dark backgrounds stay dark, bright ones stay bright), with only a slight brightness lift to keep it airy. The four levels scale blur (0/8/20/32px) plus sheen/border/highlight intensity.
0.3.38lib 0.12.10 · 168 KB
• Updated store metadata (full settings description) and refreshed all five store screenshots with the current liquid-glass look.

• The weather location is no longer hardcoded: the overlay used to fall back to a baked-in home coordinate when no location was set and the phone's location was unavailable. It now uses the configured location (on-device settings or companion app), the phone's location, or shows no weather. • New "Weather refresh" setting, in the on-device settings page and the companion app: 5m / 15m / 30m / 1hr / 2hr tiles, same pattern as Idle timeout (default 30m). The ambient dashboard re-arms its weather timer whenever the setting changes. • Portrait ambient dashboard: slightly more left/right padding (24px to 32px). Landscape layout is unchanged.

• Settings page: the SETTINGS title now has 24px left padding so it aligns with the card titles below (they sit inside the cards' 24px padding). No change to the ambient dashboard.

• Reverts 0.3.20: hiding the app from the device app list did not work as intended on-device, so the on-device settings page is back at index.html and the app appears in the app list again, as in 0.3.19.
0.3.20lib 0.12.10 · 165 KB
• The app no longer appears in the device's app list: the on-device settings page moved from index.html to settings.html and is now declared via the manifest's settings field (the supported upstream mechanism), so the daemon no longer treats the bundle as a launchable app. The settings page itself is unchanged and still reachable from the app's settings entry.
0.3.19lib 0.12.10 · 165 KB
• Companion-app settings now sync to the overlay in realtime over the daemon (requires Bridgething 0.13.1+): ambient enable, dim level, idle timeout, weather units, and location all apply the moment you change them in the companion app, including while the screensaver is showing. Settings page hints refresh live the same way. Device-side overrides still win over the companion defaults. • Settings page changes (idle timeout, dim, location) broadcast to the running overlay on the same tab via storage events. • Note: on Bridgething 0.12.x the overlay keeps its old behavior (device-local settings only) — realtime sync activates once the device runs 0.13.1 or newer.
0.2.0lib 0.12.10 · 142 KB
• Overlay-only bundle: no index.html, so the app no longer appears in the Car Thing launcher (requires daemon 0.12.10+, which auto-detects overlay-only bundles). The overlay stays installed and manageable from the companion app. • Voice pill now floats above the volume bar instead of covering it. • Notification toasts tolerate missing flags/app fields.
