March 15th, 2024 Update for FrogPilot v0.9.6:

Highlight Features

• Backup Functionality - Find yourself longing for a previous version of FrogPilot or wanting a quick and easy way to swap between release and staging? Well, this week introduces backups! Upon installing an update, FrogPilot will automatically backup it's current state with the branch name and update date for easy identification! It'll keep up to 5 of these automatic backups, but you can also manually create a more permanent backup in the "Device" panel. Along with backing up the entire FrogPilot program, you can also create and restore toggle presets if you find you delved too deep into swapping around settings and want to go back to a previous state. This is only done manually, so make sure you back it up before you start flipping switches!

• Holiday Themes - Feel openpilot isn't festive enough? Does your driving experience need some holiday spirit? Introducing "Holiday Themes"! On minor holidays, such as 4th of July or New Years, openpilot's theme will match that holiday for the day of, and for major holidays, such as Christmas or Easter, it'll last for the entire week! Currently only "Easter", "St. Patrick’s Day", and "World Frog Day" have been added, but I'll be adding more themes as their respective holidays come up!

• Screen Management - Do you prefer to have your screen brightness to differ from when you're onroad vs offroad? Or how about hiding the entire onroad UI? Well, now you can! Introducing the latest parent toggle "Screen Management"! "Screen Management" introduces 7 new child toggles to hide various onroad UI elements from the screen, tweak the screen brightness for both onroad and offroad, timeout settings, and a new "Standby Mode" to awaken the screen when engagement state changes or alerts are active on the screen!

Other Enhancements

• Added a random event for when acceleration exceeds 3.0 m/s
• Added a toggle to hide the lead marker
• Added option to have a "None" steering wheel
• Added the ability to long press the distance button to switch the state of "Experimental Mode" (Currently only HKG/Toyota/Lexus)
• Added toggles to hide the status bar for "Always On Lateral" and "Conditional Experimental Mode"
• Updated all of the custom audio files to be a more consistent in volume

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where "FrogPilot" statistics weren't logging for comma powerless users
• Fixed an issue where some button based toggles weren't live toggles
• Fixed an issue where some toggles wouldn't restore their previous selection when re-installing
• Fixed an issue where the "acceleration" metric wouldn't populate if "Pedals On Onroad UI" was toggled off

• Fixed an issue where the text for the speed limit confirmation screen was inversed for right hand drivers

March 1st, 2024 Update for FrogPilot v0.9.6:

Highlight Features

• Fleet Manager Refinements - Thanks to @Mike854, "Fleet Manager" has received a handful of touch ups and refinements! You'll find dashcam footage previews in the "Dashcam Routes" tab to be able to find your desired route with ease! The "Navigation" tab has also received a handful of bug fixes when working with the "MapBox" and "AMap" APIs, along with the new "Tools" tab to retrieve and modify your current toggle configuration so you can alter them from either your phone or desktop with ease!

• Speed Limit Controller Refinements - With some help from @syncword, I went through and cleaned up a handful of the logic for "Speed Limit Controller" to provide a more refined experience! On top of these refinements, you'll find all of the "Speed Limit Controller" related toggles to be located within the "Speed Limit Controller" parent toggle as opposed to scattered in 4 different places and with an additional toggle to only change the desired speed limit upon confirmation. You can confirm the new speed limit by either taping on the screen or pressing the cruise increase/decrease button on your steering wheel to confirm/deny the new speed limit.
