LightOS Update v550
--
Our newest LightOS update brings some new features, a lot of bug fixes and performance optimization. Notably, it adds ‘bicycle’ as a mode of transportation option in Directions, the ability to rotate images in the Album, alternative characters in all keyboards, a ‘data saver’ mode which only syncs music/podcast over wifi and eSIM (beta). We made some reliability and usability improvements across the Podcast tool (fixes duplicate episodes and a memory leak that caused crashes), Directions tool (re-routing improvements), Notes tool (respecting user's timezone) and across the OS, fixing things like instances where the ringtone sometimes defaulted to an Android tone.
On the backend, we refactored the logic of how contacts are edited/uploaded to support larger contact libraries and make it significantly faster.
We also kicked off a small group of beta users to help us test the last two LightOS releases. This proved really helpful in ensuring that today's release is stable. We look forward to expanding this group going forward. Thank you to everyone who volunteered and helped us get this update out today!
