ShoddyScan Updates

June 16, 2026 - v1.0.4 (45) Alpha

• Focuses on responsive scan UI cleanup so scan surfaces adapt more cleanly across supported screen sizes.
• Improves AppBridge dialog sizing for a steadier setup and transport-review flow.
• Refreshes localized transport wording while keeping the same conservative alpha safety boundaries.

June 10, 2026 - v1.0.4 (44) Alpha

• Improves AppBridge and native OBD telemetry stability for steadier diagnostics workflows.
• Refreshes AppBridge session messaging, AIDL recovery, native vendor telemetry handling, and cross-screen transport wording.
• Keeps the same conservative safety boundaries while transport and telemetry wording become easier to follow.

June 10, 2026 - v1.0.4 (43) Alpha

• Refreshes release tracking for the diagnostics-confidence alpha.
• Carries forward the local DTC decode coverage, assistant caveats, and support/export clarity from the previous build.
• Keeps the alpha notes aligned with the current build while preserving the same conservative diagnostics-readiness posture.

June 8, 2026 - v1.0.4 (42) Alpha

• Adds clearer local DTC decode coverage summaries for exact local definitions, verified overlays, unverified manufacturer-specific items, structure-only items, and raw adapter text.
• Improves diagnostics assistant wording so unverified exact meanings are labeled as guidance instead of guessed repair verdicts.
• Expands support/debug exports with DTC decode counts, offline readiness, caveats, and next-step guidance.
• Refreshes PDF/report wording around drive capture reviews and diagnostic confidence details.
• Adds unit coverage for DTC interpreter caching, decode coverage summaries, diagnostics assistant caveats, and report export output.

May 20, 2026 - v1.0.4 (38) Alpha

• Refines diagnostics assistant, scan, telemetry, home, and tune-review surfaces with cleaner summary wording.
• Makes report presentation more consistent across the app so support output is easier to read and compare.
• Removes MicroTune from ShoddyScan now that ShoddyTune carries the tuning companion work as a standalone Android surface for ShoddyHubHardware.

May 6, 2026 - v1.0.4 (37) Alpha

• Delivers richer local diagnostics with VIN-aware identity context, broader DTC interpretation, and stronger support or AI export detail.
• Adds clearer transport-status visibility so active connection state is easier to read during live workflows.
• Refreshes localized wording across the app for more consistent multi-language UX.

April 24, 2026 - v1.0.4 (36) Alpha

• This build adds an optional ShoddyHubHardware remote handoff path for live direct-write attempts.
• Advanced users can now point ShoddyScan at a separate handoff service instead of relying only on the in-app direct-write route.
• The release also focuses on setup polish around that handoff flow.

April 20, 2026 - v1.0.4 (35) Alpha

• Cleaned up native OBD connection handling for better reliability and maintainability.
• Improved telemetry stability during active sessions.
• Added clearer native-first plus AppBridge fallback visibility so failover behavior is easier to understand.
• Expanded debug export detail so route changes, failover state, and runtime telemetry issues are easier to trace.

April 18, 2026 - v1.0.4 (33) Alpha

• This build improves the in-app direct transport path by cleaning up how native OBD commands are issued and tracked for live telemetry, readiness monitors, trouble codes, freeze-frame reads, clear-code actions, and ECU metadata.
• The command layer now records retries, timeouts, and capability observations.
• That lets the app react more honestly when a direct adapter is healthy, degraded, or only partially supported.

April 14, 2026 - v1.0.4 (32) Alpha

• The app now lets you map the bridge target it should bind to, using either a quick picker for known apps or manual package, action, and service-class details when the target needs custom setup.
• Added a clearer AppBridge setup card so you can see which target is mapped.
• The setup card also shows whether the app, service, handshake, and ECU stream are actually available before starting the session.

April 13, 2026 - v1.0.4 (31) Alpha

• ShoddyScan now makes the AppBridge target configurable instead of assuming one fixed service shape.
• Added a quick app picker.
• Added manual mapping fields for package, action, and service class.
• Added a save-or-connect flow so users can point ShoddyScan at the bridge target they actually want to use.

April 12, 2026 - v1.0.4 (30) Alpha

• ShoddyScan now adds an AppBridge telemetry session through app AIDL.
• That option now spreads through the connection flow.
• AIDL ingress status now carries into assistant and support context.
• Safety gates remain intact.

April 12, 2026 - v1.0.4 (28) Alpha

• MicroTune now expands into a much broader controller-aware review workspace.
• Added ECU identity and setup-validation views plus explicit capability and write-lock summaries.
• Added new read-only analysis sections for VVT, thermal behavior, torque management, idle behavior, fuel trims, spark timing, throttle mapping, and sensor sanity.
• Added exportable review reports for several of those lanes so findings can travel more cleanly outside the app.
• Theme, unit, and app-language preferences remain persisted, the app now supports selectable accent palettes across the shell, and localized resources continue to spread into settings and workflow text.
• Safety posture stays conservative: support is still resolved by controller family and OS, and write-heavy actions remain locked or tightly gated unless a clearly supported path exists.

April 11, 2026 - v1.0.4 (26) Alpha

• ShoddyScan now supports per-app language selection.
• Added a first translation pass for core screens and localization-aware debug export.
• Added Spanish, French, Simplified Chinese, and explicit English (US) language options.

April 11, 2026 - v1.0.4 (25) Alpha

• ShoddyAssistant now acts as a more intentional assistant layer across the app.
• Diagnostics and Tune Review now live under one clearer top-level assistant surface, with selectable response depth and a lane model that keeps fault evidence separate from guarded calibration guidance.
• This makes the assistant flow easier to understand without weakening the underlying deterministic report or MicroTune safety posture.
• Deep mode can build a provider-friendly brief from current diagnostics and tune-review context, then let the user preview, copy, or share it manually for richer narrative help.
• External AI explanation handoff stays opt-in and only becomes available after the user explicitly enables it, accepts the privacy acknowledgement, and saves the needed provider credentials, while broader provider support remains scaffolded for future expansion.
• The feature stays opt-in and safety-first: nothing is sent automatically, deterministic ShoddyScan evidence stays primary, and AI does not unlock unsupported ECU behavior.

April 10, 2026 - v1.0.4 (24) Alpha

• Consolidated overlapping navigation responsibilities and improved drive-session flow ordering.
• Reduced trend browsing friction with selector-driven navigation patterns better suited for tablet and phone layouts.
• Existing scan, telemetry, report, and safety systems remain intact.
• MicroTune write-path checks now include a global kill-switch hook and expanded structured audit events covering requested, blocked, started, completed, and failed outcomes.
• This does not broaden unsupported ECU behavior. Live write support remains deliberately conservative and controller-aware, with export-first handoff still used when dedicated in-app validation is not present.

April 7, 2026 - v1.0.4 (21) Alpha

• Added a dedicated Diagnostics and Support section in Setup.
• Added an app-specific debug export with useful ShoddyScan session details for troubleshooting.
• Expanded Credits and Support with clearer support guidance.
• Improved DTC behavior so failed scans, clear-code failures, and freeze-frame read failures are shown explicitly instead of looking like empty clean results.
• Added broader regression coverage for Live Data, Dashboard, Trends, MicroTune, Settings, and DTC handling.

This release is centered on easier support diagnosis and less misleading empty-state behavior during scan failures.

April 2, 2026 - v1.0.4 (20) Alpha

• USB attach handling refresh.

April 1, 2026 - v1.0.4 (19) Alpha

• Cleaned up the protected workspace flow to make MicroTune easier to understand without relaxing its safety posture.
• Kept high-risk tools behind the acknowledgement wall.
• Added observe-only Adaptive Fuel Trim diagnostics with bounded rolling logs and on-device storage.
• Simplified the Flash Workspace so review, prep, and controls are clearer on tablet layouts.
