Changelog

Ombak ships fast during beta — newest first.

28 Oct 2026

The speed gauge and its posted-limit sign now sit at the bottom-left of the map (Waze-style), keeping the road ahead and the turn banner fully visible.

28 Oct 2026

Live traffic, hazard reports, search and routing now served from a nearby regional edge — faster first load, quicker reroute response (~1.7 s vs 2.4–3.1 s before), steady under mobile data.
Other drivers running Ombak around you now appear as live dots on your map in real-time peer-to-peer presence.
If the write path temporarily goes offline, reporting degrades gracefully: a clear retry prompt instead of an opaque error.

28 Oct 2026

Hazard and incident checks are now scenario-aware: they stay quiet when a slowdown is just your announced turn or a red light, wait progressively longer between asks, and cap at three per trip.
Your Profile card updates the moment you sign in or out — no more “signed in but it still says Not Signed in”.

27–28 Oct 2026

One-tap “Sign in with QynQue” links your account so saved places and recent searches sync across devices. Your Ombak account is created on first sign-in, and Ombak never stores a password.
Sign-in opens as a sheet over the map instead of taking over the screen, and ends with a clear “Back to map”. An account is optional — you never need one to navigate.
Older Androids that can’t run the modern sign-in page fall back to a simple direct email/password sign-in: same account, password used once and never saved.

27 Oct 2026

Search tab surfaces no longer leak state between screens — recents, the nearby grid and the route pane always render current data when switched.
The shared GPS subscription is no longer torn down when moving between screens, removing false “no GPS” warnings at the start of a route.
The keyboard no longer pops over full-screen panes it shouldn’t cover.

27 Oct 2026

New custom speed gauge: a digital readout plus a progress ring (green → amber → red) that fills toward the dial ceiling.
An EU-style speed-limit sign docks beside the gauge — shown only where map data actually carries the limit, never guessed.
Hard-braking flash moved onto the gauge; the speed number now rounds instead of always flooring.

27 Oct 2026

Route memory: pick a route (or take your own detour) once and it returns pre-selected on a repeat trip, tagged “Your usual”.
Driving profile: on-device trip telemetry (average/max speed, harsh braking, highway mix) summarised in your Profile — with a one-tap “Forget what you learned”.
All learning stays local on your phone. Nothing is uploaded.

26–27 Oct 2026

The passed route fades behind you as you drive — only what’s ahead stays highlighted.
Heading-up camera holds the car pointing up, snappier at speed.
Voice and on-screen distances round to clean milestones (500 m / 300 m / 100 m) instead of jittery exact metres.
The GO button is disabled until routes actually exist — no more blank navigation screens.
Starting a route while the fix is still acquiring no longer shows a scary cold-start error.

26 Oct 2026

Guidance voice now follows the in-app language choice instead of the phone’s system locale — English UI speaks English cues.

26 Oct 2026

Driving-first home: a collapsible bottom sheet with pinned GO / Nearby / Frequent / Alerts tabs over a full-bleed map.
Smart place search: out-of-order and typo-tolerant retrieval (“sentral kl” finds Klang Sentral, “petonas” finds Petronas).
Waze-style address labels on results — venue name as the title, council/town address as the detail.
Speed-adaptive navigation: cue timing, camera zoom and rotation scale with your speed.
Live GPS health monitoring with honest disconnect warnings before starting navigation.

25 Oct 2026

Offline Malaysia map (MapLibre + vector tiles), place search, route preview and voice-guided turn-by-turn navigation.
Saved places, recent searches, and traffic reports on the gateway-backed stack.
