ALWX Radar Android — v0.4.0
- Help tab sections (Support, About, Acknowledgements) are now tappable links that open their content in a dialog instead of always-expanded text.
- Added a Changelog section summarizing every release so far (v0.1.0–v0.4.0).
- Added Terms of Use and Privacy Policy sections, including a plain-language note that location is used only to center the map locally and is never sent to ALWX or any third party.
Lightning
- Strikes now render as fading bolt icons matching radar.alwx.org's canvas-drawn bolt, instead of plain circles, plus the web app's pulse-ring effect for brand-new strikes. Age-based fade curves ported directly from the site.
NWS alerts
- Tapping an alert now shows a popup with a header colored and labeled to match the alert's severity (same event-color table used for the map fill/outline), plus a More button that opens the full alert text (description + instructions) in the same color-coded style, formatted for readability.
Launcher icon
- Replaced the previous adaptive-icon foreground, which combined a crude hand-drawn Alabama outline with side-by-side "AL"/"WX" text at the wrong aspect ratio and no safe-zone inset, causing it to clip/distort under every real launcher's circular/squircle mask.
- New design uses Alabama's actual boundary geometry with "AL" stacked over "WX" centered inside the state body, verified from the PNGs actually packaged into the built APK.
Assets
ALWX-Radar-Android-v0.4.0.apk — debug-signed APK, installable directly on device (enable "install unknown apps" for your browser/file manager).
