EasyRoute 5.4 – Update for iOS 17 and watchOS 10

A number of medium and small changes for this release

First, when navigating a route, EasyRoute uses a Live Activity. If you have a phone with a Dynamic Island, the live activity will inhabit it if you switch away from EasyRoute. Without the Dynamic Island, it will present a banner similar to a notification and show status on the Lock Screen. This feature requires iOS 16.2.

Next up are number of updates for watchOS 10 and this year’s new watches. EasyRoute widgets support watchOS 10’s Smart Stack and the widgets themselves have been updated to look better as well. Also, there have been a number of tweaks to support the placement of text on both the new watches and new watchOS. Lastly, zooming the navigation screen with the digital crown has been fixed.

There have been a number of little fixes and, a little enhancement as well. You can now change the route type right in the titlebar of the main route screen. Just tap the route type icon, and you’ll get a menu with options to change it.

As usual you can use the contact form for feedback.
