What's New in Open Lap

1.9.2

February 6, 2021

- Add new configuration setting Connections: Demo Control Unit. Too many reviewers seem to mistake this app for some kind of motorsport manager game, so the demo mode will now be hidden by default. - Improve Bluetooth LE connection handling. - Use a menu toggle for switching sector times on and off. Using slides for selecting the alternative leaderboard view was not intuitive to some users, and this also turned out to be a performance bottleneck, especially with older devices. - Send CU command #7 when a car finishes a race or qualifying session. When using the Carrera® Position Tower, this will make the respective driver ID blink. - Add notification for new race leader. - Add separate notification for qualifying session ended. - Fix occasional screen flicker on some devices, especially when on-screen keyboard is displayed. - Update leaderboard sort order also when race is paused. - Minor UI improvements. - Add French translation (courtesy of nico12). - Reduce use of "nagging" dialog boxes. - Reduce duplicated speech messages.

Great App

This app works perfectly with my Carrera digital 132 system. If you want a simple app that shows lap times, especially, if you are just practicing this app works great! It’s even free.

Amazing

This app worked perfectly with my Carrera digital 1:32 track and is so much better than the official app by Carerra. The fact that it’s free makes this a no brainer, excellent job.
