Using this on a touchscreen is still painfully slow. Back button closes the app even if it should just dismiss an alert. Text input rarely works. Scroll works when it wants. It's OK for just viewing dashboards, but anything else is just bad.

Awesome, great new updates I have a pie dash as well, looks like I spent 10k on my data aq system and its way more flexible with continuous improvements and a robust following on discord.

The hardware and capabilities are excellent but man does the app suck. Laggy, button presses may or may not register, crashes frequently. I understand using a framework so you can build the same app on multiple platforms but this one really sucks on Android. Analysis feature doesn't work on my phone (oneplus 6t - plenty of power). I wish I could use this hardware with racechrono. Update - using Android 11 on a brand new Pixel phone, and I have the same issues. No response from the developer
