New version 1.0 → 1.0.1

• A new walkthrough on first launch: it shows the app in action instead of handing out tips. • Walking guidance: a turn banner, arrival time, buttons to open your navigator, and a note when you arrive. • Routes from afar: you see the walking line to the start, then choose to listen from here or start on site. The route takes over when you arrive. • Routes now run from 1 to the end: from the gate you entered, then from where you stand, without doubling back. The counter no longer jumps ahead ("6 of 12" at the start). • Bottom panels, the mini-player included, swipe away to the left. • Location access now lives in Settings, with a prompt before a route. Tapping Guide me mid-route asks whether to finish the current one. • The player opens as a sheet you can swipe away, with the map kept beneath it.
