Run sessions — live workout tracking
A new Run entry in the navigation drawer starts a live session over the map, showing a running chronometer, the distance covered, and your average speed in a clean monospace readout. The drawer button toggles to Stop, and a short double-buzz confirms each start and stop. The session keeps counting even if you leave the map screen, and on stop the run is saved automatically as a track — drawn in your own device colour — in a dedicated «myRuns» collection. Live distance is computed with the same filtering as the saved track, so the number you watch during the run matches the one you keep.
Open GPX files from other apps, and export any track
Xopoz now registers as a handler for GPX files, so it appears in Android's «Open with» list when you tap a .gpx download, file, or email attachment — the file is routed straight into the Track Manager import. The handler is deliberately limited to files already on the device, so Xopoz never claims web links it cannot verify. The Track Manager also gains an Export as GPX action that writes any single imported or in-app track back to a GPX file for sharing or backup.
New map sources — satellite and Swiss topographic
Three servers are now built in: two aerial imagery sources, EOX Sentinel-2 cloudless and Esri ArcGIS World Imagery, plus SwissTopo, the official Swiss national map, alongside the existing street maps. The default server has been renamed from «Tiritix» to «Europe» for clarity. You remain free to add or replace any raster tile server of your own.
xScale — dial in the map detail level
A new xScale control sits just after Zoom in the navigation drawer and adjusts how densely tiles are drawn, from 0.40x to 2.00x. On high-density screens some servers — SwissTopo in particular — drop their street detail one zoom level too early; lowering xScale to roughly 0.5x brings that detail back without affecting any other server. The setting is stored per device and applied live as you move the slider.
Haptic feedback across the app
A short, consistent vibration now confirms key actions so they can be felt without looking at the screen — map button presses, distance-measurement drag, joining a team, and sending an SOS. Changing the map server or style, checking a server URL, and dragging the Reality or xScale sliders now give the same confirmation. The distinctive longer pattern remains reserved for confirming that tracking has been switched off.
Large-screen and free rotation
The app now supports resizable windows and free orientation on large-screen devices — tablets, foldables, and desktop windowing — so the layout follows the device instead of being locked.
Shared Points of Interest reach the whole team
A POI shared with a team could fail to appear on teammates' devices even though it was stored correctly on the server. Retrieval and change-polling now include the groups shared with every team you belong to, so a Point added by one member shows up for the others — and receivers are correctly told to refetch when a teammate adds one.
Build authenticity check
At startup the app now records the SHA-256 fingerprint of the certificate it was signed with in its own log. If you ever need to confirm that the copy you are running is a genuine Xopoz build rather than a re-signed one, the fingerprint is right there in the log you can attach from the Support screen — and it should match the certificate published on our releases page.
Polish and fixes
The Trail Duration day cursor is capped at 10 days to keep map rendering smooth; the team-member battery warning now turns red below 20% (instead of 10%) as an earlier heads-up; «Create my track» honours the exact date range you select; the account creation screen links directly to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy; a map-screen crash on rapid navigation was fixed; the team list no longer repeats the device ticker next to the device name, since it is already shown in the member icon; the login screen now sits correctly under the status and navigation bars on the newest Android versions; track storage was tidied up, with an upgrade step that preserves every existing track and its points; the support ticket list gained smooth infinite scroll; the app-wide typeface was refreshed (Audiowide) with theme-aware colours and slightly larger Settings text.
