- iOS 26.2 Bluetooth GPS fixes

Map Types

- Bing has discontinued their Maps this month, so these no longer work. We removed those.
- We added ESRI WORLD Imagery as an option to view for the Basic Core App users. This is the same top level Satellite map Imagery option that Advanced and Pro subscription users have had access to view and store for offline use

- Adjustments and improvements to external GPS Antenna handling
- Updates to Subscription handling across multiple devices

- Rolled the external BlueTooth GPS antenna connection into one Blue Dot Satellite icon whenever connected. You will no longer see a DUAL logo but now your GPS signal indicator will go from Red (No GPS Lock), Green (internal GPS Lock available on the iPhone and cellular model iPads) and a Blue (external BlueTooth GPS being used)
- Smaller decimal increments added for distances
- Added the ability to Name your device in the app before sharing your Contact Info for Group Tracking
- Fixed an issue where the Waypoint symbol was stretching across the "Next Waypoint" field in some cases. This has been hard to replicate but if anyone else still experiences this let us know...but we think we killed this bug!

- Performance improvements

Continuing to update and overhaul our subscription handling through Apple

- Minor fixes to the Restore purchase button for some instances where a current subscriber activates a new device

Thank you for supporting with your feedback!

You definitely want this update!

Major Bug Fixes
- Last week we pushed a total overhaul to the subscription handling...unfortunately a few switches got flipped and things turned off. This made some Pro features not available to new users. Sorry...things happen but we appreciate those supporting us and letting us know!

Features
- They are all back

We spent the past few months rebuilding subscription handling to include now offering our Satellite Group Tracking as an In-App monthly or yearly activation to use with Iridium GO! units and the separate Iridium unlimited services.

Lots of capability added with that for offline, peer to peer group tracking. If you don't know what this is...don't buy it till you learn more from our website and have the hardware to run it.

Features

- Added our Satellite Group Tracking subscriptions to be now purchased In-App! 
- You also get per month pricing available as well as the traditional year pricing

Not only does this free up our need to activate each and every device, but in turn it drops the cost across a number of Iridium devices sharing the same Group/Team iTunes account.

**NOTE if you do not know what this is...you probably don't know how to use it nor have the satellite Iridium packages to actually run it. So, DO NOT PURCHASE IT until you learn more from our website. This is a service allowing you to see each other in the field in areas without traditional cellular or WiFi coverage. To do this, it requires satellite equipment and SERVICE. The only service we recommend is the Iridium GO! Unlimited plan, as anything else will burn out your data too quickly. Make sure you get that equipment and service lined up first.

Terms apply as per website and we are not responsible for you not knowing how to use it after you purchase it. Most of our folks running this have been trained by us, in person, through our courses...or they happen to be computer geeks... In our experience, most desert racers AREN'T "computer geeks" (no offense)...so grab your kid or an IT person before purchasing.

***Also these are large auto renewing subscriptions...so remember to cancel prior to your next billing cycle if you do not wish to continue.

Bug Fixes

- Killed one that appeared recently where in certain instances GPX files were not able to import
- Also, we hopefully killed a bug that showed new users that they had a Pro Pack subscription when they actually had not purchased one...bear with us as we just did a major overhaul to subscription handling

As always, THANK YOU....and let us know if you like the app by giving us a review!

Minor Bug fixes

- Stopped app from crashing when running cellular "on grid" tracking when in areas with weak to no cell service
- Minor description and text updates
- Made the Merging Route stacking bars brighter in the MENU list

This is a minor update as some of our users get ready for the Baja 1000 desert race.

MapBox Satellite will be getting phased out so we recommend switching over to using ESRI World Imagery instead or a custom map URL of your choosing

Thank you and please give us a review!

Bug fix

Please Review and use our You Tube channel and Community Forum to learn and share.

Thank you!

LEADNAV 6.5 is here as we continue to work with our map providers (new and old) to offer you the best background map imagery we can provide. We are also rolling some highly requested Pro features down to our Advanced subscribers.

Features
- ESRI map imagery is here with Satellite, Terrain and Street available for offline prep for your next trip “off the grid”
- Overlay / MBTile use has been bumped down from Pro and made available to our Advanced subscribers

Fixes
- Multiple bugs taken care of to include the new iPhone HUD display issues on certain smaller devices
- Performance updates

Note
- Offline map imagery is offered through our outside providers and subject to changes they make to the terms of use and pricing. As we continue to work with these companies to provide the very best background mapping we can for our users, understand that this map imagery is intended to be saved and prepped per trip, used and deleted before going on your next trip, borrowing this imagery, versus storing indefinitely.

However, there are even more advanced ways to prep and plan for your trips, subscribe to our You Tube channel and join our Community Forum to learn more!
