- Fixed the alert and anchor state shown on the mirroring/proxy server sometimes getting stuck after an alarm was acknowledged, even though the boat was no longer in an alarm condition. The current state is now sent immediately when an alarm ends or transmission is stopped, and is repeated on every transmission instead of only when it changes locally, so a single lost update can no longer leave the server out of sync permanently. - Long-tapping a saved anchor place on the map now offers "Show Picture(s)" (if any are saved for that place) and "Edit". Pictures open directly in a new, simple full-screen viewer with the picture's description shown underneath, without going through the place editor. - Fixed a possible app hang at startup. Navionics initialization is no longer done synchronously during app startup, and a redundant, near-immediate rebuild of the Navionics map screen right after launch has been removed.
