🚀 Offband Meshcore 1.6.0 is out. Our biggest update yet, and the stable successor to 1.4.0 on Google Play. Over 100 changes since the beta. The big ones:

👥 Contacts, reworked.

  • Tap a contact shared on a channel to Add Contact, or share your own contact into a channel.
  • Add someone by public key (type/paste, or key-only before an advert), or by QR (show and scan).
  • Full cross-client with stock MeshCore: contact shares move both ways.
  • Each contact shows how confirmed its identity is, and you can add/view/block a channel sender right from their avatar.

🧳 Bring your setup with you. Stock-compatible config export/import and identity export/import, so moving between radios (or in and out of stock) just works.

📻 Radio presets. A region-grouped preset picker labeled by source (credit to Liam Cottle / MeshCore for the upstream presets). Apply a preset's path hash to a companion, observer, repeater, or room server, with region matching that won't mislabel a USA radio as Canada.

🔁 Sync that heals itself. Offband now detects a short contact sync and recovers it automatically, tells you the recovered count and which contacts are genuinely gone, and (importantly) never overwrites your saved contacts on a short or unreadable sync.

📶 Bluetooth reliability, big pass. The composer no longer locks up from an unreported BLE MTU: negotiated MTU is now reported on Windows, Linux, and web, and if a link truly can't carry a message it tells you why instead of going dead. Plus bounded GATT-133 retry with readable errors, disconnects that retry-and-warn instead of vanishing, and closed GATT handle leaks.

✉️ Messaging fixes. Delivered DMs are no longer marked failed (send correlation now uses the radio's own ACK hash), and late repeater replies go to the log instead of your screen.

➕ Plus an About screen, top-of-screen notifications, USB serial that doesn't drop bytes, and (experimental) OKIMesh CoreScope per-packet observer counts.
