What's New in Ionaut
1.7
September 24, 2026
New in 1.7 — our biggest update yet - Globe: the real Earth with day, night, city lights and aurora. Your contacts glow as arcs, a time slider shows where each band carries over the next 24 hours, and the DXCC album colours in every entity you have worked and confirmed. - Your signal's path: see from the side how your signal hops through the ionosphere — with measured ionosondes, MUF and D-layer. Also for every HF contact in your log: "How your contact got there". - Ask Ionaut: ask in your own words, get answers from real data. Log a contact from one sentence, scan paper QSL cards. With Apple Intelligence, on your device. - Satellite in the real sky: hold up your iPhone and the camera shows where the satellite will appear. The list now sorts by visibility. - New tropo map with time-lapse and Live Activity; reach map time-lapse; the Sun in 3D; band plan as a spectrum; "How was my signal". - Daily briefing: twice a day, what matters right now. - Apple Watch complications. Siri and Shortcuts. - On the road: the whole app can work from your GPS location. - Many translation improvements across all 44 languages.
