New iPhone beta version: 1.5.9.4

Post by The Fej
The new beta version has a big performance improvement which should also improve the battery consumption. You can pick it up from

As usual, we'll be grateful for feedback.

It's actually been like this for a few versions, but I always forgot to say it :oops:
Wait, really? Mine has never lowered the music for a voice prompt, not since the very first version.

That's been happening to me also the entire time, since the first version, or at least since one of the first. It'll usually happen only after recalculating multiple times in a row.

I don't think I've gained a single point since installing 1.5.9.2. My dashboard has been stuck at 303767 points since, and my rank has been steadily falling, from 13 down, now, to 21. I've gone for a couple drives simply to munch and get points. Not sure what the deal is.

Installing 1.5.9.4 now, we'll see how it goes.

Oh, yeah, my point total on the phone dropped from 303k to 224k when I installed this version a couple days ago, but my rank stayed the same. The dashboard seems to be showing the proper totals—unless it's stuck and I didn't notice...

Okay, so with all this talk about "performance improvements", I got excited and switched to 3D mode. And it's usable! And it has this:

A HORIZON! It's... it's so beautiful...

...And apparently, we live on Mars.

See, Phobos and Deimos, right there! :lol:

It'd be nice if the traffic alerts and such (seen in the previous picture) showed up on top of the horizon, though.
