Karoo Software Build Version: 1.5.1.3

Introductions and Enhancements:

• In-ride pause menu redesigned to reduce intrusiveness:
• Auto-pause: background icon displayed; users can now scroll through pages
• Manual pause: users now have the option to hide menu and scroll through pages
• Various back-end improvements to sensor data stream intake, resulting in more accurate and reliable displaying, handling, and logging of all sensor data 
• Better handling of grade and vertical speed data for faster response, greater accuracy, and reduction in erroneous drops to 0% or 0m/hr. 
• Improvements for handling roundabouts and other turn instructions
• Some left-hand traffic navigation prompts introduced (in beta)
• Improved software protocol for recovery of ride data after unexpected crashes or freezes
• Added a prompt for high battery drain with adaptive brightness on
• Average Cadence value is no longer including zeros 
• Lap screen now shows a more detailed summary that includes a snapshot of previous lap data
• Various back-end improvements made that are laying a strong foundation for third-party apps and integrations in the future

Bug Fixes:

• Addressed case where navigation instructions were not showing up on all data screens (still working on this but improvements made) for some users
• Addressed Strava upload failures reported by some users
• TSS (Training Stress Score) data field was incorrectly considering pause time
• Ride path was not following rider on map when Karoo’s screen was not in-ride 
• Eliminated data field freezing if/when a sensor is dropped

Known Issues Remaining:

• We are still working on cases where mapping and some data fields can freeze in-ride
• Average Speed and Cadence readouts sometimes erroneous
• Offline map downloads failures still affecting some users (workarounds identified, but root cause/fix still being explored)
• Accelerated battery depletion affecting some users after most recent update to 1.4.156.3. Updating to new version
• Unwanted unit reboots are still occurring for some users. Potential causes have been identified and workarounds have been suggested as a stop-gap measure. We are working around the clock on this issue, as we recognize that it is immensely frustrating for those who experience it.
• Dashboard/Karoo sync of both routes and activities occasionally failing for some users. We have a suggested workaround as a temporary fix while we investigate what specifically is causing this. Backend third-party server host issues are suspected.
