MeshCore Wardrive

Tool Beta

Android coverage-mapping app that pairs GPS tracks with automatic MeshCore repeater pings, visualizes response rates and signal quality, exports survey data and can contribute results to a community web map.

Releases

from GitHub · updated 2026-06-23
  1. v1.0.40 # Latest 15 days ago · 2026-06-09 00:04 UTC

    Changelog

    v1.0.40 - 2026-06-09

    Added

    • Device Tracking & Comparison: The app now logs which LoRa companion device (by Bluetooth ID and name) you use for each wardrive session. View all paired devices and their performance stats in the new Device Comparison screen (Settings → Data Management). Compare two devices side-by-side: success rate, fail rate, total pings, unique cells, avg response time, avg SNR, and avg RSSI.
    • Dead Zone Alert Toggle: New setting to enable/disable the "Entering known dead zone" notification
    • New Repeater Alert Toggle: New setting to enable/disable the new repeater discovery notification

    Fixed

    • New Repeater Discovery Alert: Now only fires for repeaters that have truly never been seen before in the database. Previously the in-memory set reset on every app restart, causing false "new" alerts. Known repeater IDs are loaded from sample history on startup.

    Technical

    • Database version 11 → 12: new devices table, new device_id column on samples
    • LoRaCompanionService: captures connected device ID (BT remoteId for Bluetooth, product name for USB)
    • All ping samples (distance, time, and carpeater) tagged with device_id
    • DatabaseService: device CRUD, per-device stats queries (success rate, avg SNR/RSSI/response time, unique cells)
    • New device_comparison_screen.dart with device cards and side-by-side comparison table
    • SettingsService: deadZoneAlertsEnabled and newRepeaterAlertsEnabled toggles
  2. v1.0.39 # 16 days ago · 2026-06-08 00:24 UTC

    Changelog

    v1.0.39 - 2026-06-08

    Added

    • Multiple Ignore Repeaters: Comma-separated list support for ignoring multiple repeater prefixes at once
    • Live Notification Stats: Foreground notification now shows real-time success rate, ping count, and distance (e.g., ✅ 85% | 📍 247 pings | 🛣️ 12.3mi)
    • Repeater Contacts in JSON Export: Discovered repeaters now included in unified JSON exports
    • Privacy Zones: Define circular exclusion areas on the map — data inside zones is stripped from uploads and exports. Long-press to add, manage via Settings menu
    • New Repeater Discovery Alert: Sound + snackbar notification when a never-before-seen repeater is discovered during wardriving
    • Dead Zone Alerts: Vibration + snackbar warning when entering a previously-mapped dead zone (throttled to once per cell per session)
    • Battery Saver Mode: Automatically doubles ping interval when device battery ≤20%, restores at >30%. Shows orange "🔋 Saver" badge in control panel
    • Coverage Redundancy View: New "Redundancy" color mode showing repeater count per cell (green=3+, yellow=2, orange=1)
    • Coverage Score: New Score tab in Analytics — single shareable number computed from uniqueCells × successRate × freshness with letter grade (S/A/B/C/D)
    • Wardrive Achievements: 14 milestone badges (First Ping, Kilopinger, Road Warrior, Mesh Master, etc.) with unlock notifications and dedicated Achievements screen
    • Repeater Downtime Detection: Repeater Health screen now flags repeaters not seen in 7+ days (with 10+ total pings) with offline icon and day count
    • Quick Settings Gesture: Double-tap the tracking FAB to show a floating overlay with ping distance, timeout, and mode dropdowns for quick adjustments

    Technical

    • Database version 10 → 11: new privacy_zones table
    • New achievement_service.dart with SharedPreferences-based badge tracking
    • New achievements_screen.dart with progress bar and unlock history
    • Added battery_plus dependency for device battery monitoring
    • DatabaseService: added isDeadZoneCell(), privacy zone CRUD, export with repeaters
    • LocationService: dead zone stream, battery saver stream, battery monitoring lifecycle
    • AggregationService: new redundancy color mode branch
    • Analytics: new Coverage Score tab with share button, 5-tab bottom nav
    • Repeater Health: isOffline/daysSinceSeen fields, offline badge in app bar
  3. v1.0.38 # 2 months ago · 2026-04-28 23:08 UTC

    Changelog

    v1.0.38 - 2026-04-28

    Added

    • Planned Repeater Markers: Long-press anywhere on the map to place a marker for a potential repeater location. Add an optional label, tap to view details or delete. Markers persist in the database.
    • Delete Mode: Remove bad data before uploading. Activate from Data Management menu, then tap a coverage square to delete all samples in that cell, or tap individual sample dots to remove one at a time. Red banner shows when active.
    • Planned Repeaters menu entry: Shows marker count with option to clear all markers

    Fixed

    • Show Successful Pings Only toggle: Was incorrectly writing to map rotation setting instead of the filter. Now works correctly and persists across restarts.

    Technical

    • Database version 9 → 10: new planned_markers table
    • DatabaseService: added marker CRUD methods, deleteSample(), deleteSamplesByGeohash()
    • SettingsService: added showSuccessfulOnly persistence + export key
    • Map long-press handler for marker placement
    • Delete mode routing in sample and coverage tap handlers
