05-09-2013 Software release version 1.6.9

[admin]

A new software update is now available!

This is a release fully focusing on maps improvements.

It brings us closer to deliver global country maps and enables a better user experience when using maps.

1. Maps can now be selected from the Leikr web page, configuration module.
Select the maps you like to have on your watch and sync.
Currently we have prepared Denmark, the Netherlands, Copenhagen and Berlin. We are planning to have several releases covering different countries as we move along.

2. Five levels zoom: following the request of many of you we have now implemented a five level zoom. This is particularly beneficial when cycling or trail running as it gives the opportunity to "see more" and do a better planning of the route.
Please be aware that currently downloading maps takes 1 hr per Gigabyte. The downloading process can be interrupted and restarted with another sync.

The rendering of some zoom levels might take some time, we are working on it.
The new software update will be out in a couple of hours.
As always we are looking forward to your feedback!


Thanks
The Leikr Team
