Thank you to the Sidecar beta testers for making this release one of the biggest releases yet!

Notable improvements, by category:

CarPlay

Two significant bugs fixed:

  1. Labels weren’t rendering properly.
  2. The vehicle image would sometimes get offset from your current location.

Vehicle support

The IONIQ PHEV now has its own symbol.

  • Hybrid vehicle battery widgets now show both fuel and battery history.

Trip logging

Trip reports are now shrink-wrapped, meaning idle times from the start and end of trips are now automatically trimmed. Trip reports are now more accurate as a result.

  • Fuel state is now shown in trip reports and the journey timeline.
  • Trip reports now use a moving average for fuel state.

Widgets

  • The state widget’s fuel and battery bars no longer jump when moving to 100% for hybrid vehicles.
  • The default vehicle preference and tapping widgets now correctly opens the app to the selected vehicle.
  • You can now theme the State of Health widget’s colors. The default values have been tuned for typical State of Health values.

OBD scanning

  • Fixed the “unsupported power” error in the OBD parameters.
  • OBD scalar values can now be connected to the pluggedIn and isCharging parameters.

Quality

  • Dark Mode icons have been tuned.
  • Startup times have been improved by 50ms.
  • The Latest Trip widget now shows a demo trip in the widget preview screen.
