Full changelog
New Features
- Automation triggers (Tasker etc.) - Start and stop tracking from broadcast intents, so apps like Tasker can drive Colota.
- File logging - The Activity Log is now "Logging" and adds a File tab that captures logs to a file for bug reports.
- Multi-select trips - Long-press a trip in Location History to enter selection mode, then bulk export or delete the ones you pick.
- Trip detail navigation - The map track now matches the trip's title color, and prev/next arrows step between trips without leaving the detail screen.
Bug Fixes
- Traccar sync over GET - Timestamps were sent in scientific notation (e.g.
1.78e9), which Traccar's OsmAnd endpoint couldn't parse, so it dropped the request. They're now sent as plain integers. - Large file imports - Importing location history from files larger than a few KB no longer fails.
- Motion-detection freezes - Accelerometer processing moved off the main thread, fixing stutters and freezes on slower devices.
- Battery charging status - The Data tab now reports the correct charging state.
- Backup password field - Switched to hold-to-reveal.
