What's New in BoatRun

NEW: Hazards & Lanes (Pro) - Draw hazards, lanes and dividers on the map in SECTORS ▸ HAZARDS & LANES, or in the Analyser. - Hazard: tap once for a post or buoy, or tap along a sandbank or wall. If your course will pass within 5 m of it in the next 10 seconds, you get fast beeps and a big orange warning on every live screen, with an arrow showing which way it is. - Lane: one-way, shown yellow with arrows. Beeps if you drift off it or row the wrong way. - Divider: dashed red. Beeps if you get too close. - Follow your club's code to get its lanes and hazards. They update automatically when the club changes them. - Downloaded courses can now include their lanes and hazards. - Share and import line files with other BoatRun users. NEW: Power modes - The live screen button now cycles Full, Saver (dark screen) and Max Saver. - Max Saver also updates the tiles, curve and map less often to save battery. Recording and alerts are not affected. ERG - Stroke characteristic tile: where peak force falls along the drive. - Smoother force curve. - Pace, distance and DPS now follow your units in Settings. - Faster reconnect to a PM5 the phone is already linked to. - Disconnect Erg button when not recording. FIXES - Lanes and hazards could fail to appear on the map until they were hidden and shown again. - A pre-armed sector no longer pops up while a workout is running.
