On August 15, 2026, the MeshCore Companion App was updated to version 1.48.0. This release introduces a range of new features and improvements designed to enhance interaction with the MeshCore network, offering a more streamlined and informative user experience.
Streamlined User Interaction
Version 1.48.0 significantly improves usability. A notable enhancement is the ability to resume an existing session without requiring a repeated login to the repeater. This feature saves time and simplifies the operational workflow for frequent users of the app.
Enhanced Command Line Interface (CLI)
Users who frequently interact with the CLI will benefit from the new option to resend previously executed commands via a long-press menu. This accelerates repetitive configuration tasks. Furthermore, autocorrect has been disabled for the command line input field, minimizing errors when entering specific commands.
Detailed Repeater Information and Visualization
The MeshCore Companion App now displays the regions of discovered repeaters. This visual representation on the map assists users in better understanding the geographical distribution and coverage of the network. Additionally, specific telemetry channel sections can now be shown or hidden, and all telemetry data is presented on a single page, greatly improving overall clarity.
Comprehensive Telemetry Display
Telemetry data presentation has been optimized. Specifically, power telemetry now also shows the calculated power derived from voltage and current if it differs from the directly measured power telemetry value. This provides a more accurate analysis of energy flows within the system. The telemetry channel dropdown selection has been removed in favor of a centralized and clear view of all relevant data.
Advanced Configuration Export and Import
Exported configuration files now include the channel scope, which is automatically applied when importing the file. This feature simplifies the transfer and restoration of network configurations, ensuring that all settings are accurately maintained across devices or setups.
Updated Operating System Requirements
Due to new policies from Apple and Google, the MeshCore Companion App now requires iOS 15+, macOS 12+, and Android 7+. Users on older operating system versions will need to update their devices to continue using the app.
