Lets discuss on Telegram - having the building blocks is good - but a user wont understand that LETWIST 90 followed by LETWIST 100 will result in almost no move at all. Probably invisible to them. Thats why (I think) Crumpet App sends home commands after a pause, after the Move Buttons are pressed

Use the built in USERMOVE system for Sequences

• Add usermove specific edit screen
• add repeat slider
• limit to 5 positions/steps
• Add command generator
• keep track of which usermove commands are stored in the Gear
• Automatically send top 4 sequences to gear on connect

[ ] Add bool to disable auto connect
[ ] replace disconnect button with connect
[ ] Add check to skip auto connecting

• Combine download & upload buttons (Begin Update)
• Add Lotties to update screen to be friendlier
• Handle Success
• Handle Failures (might already do this?)
• Add check for battery level

Kitsune Mode

If you connect many instances of the same devices, this mode will add random pauses to their move-start times, giving it a different visual effect.

Keep Screen On

This mode stops the screen from switching off whilst your gear is connected

Automatic Error Reporting

Sends error reports to Sentry

Development Menu

Advanced options for developers.

The device (Gear) selector widget on the Triggers, Sequences, and Joystick pages should be common.

• acquire MacOS device
• get an apple developer license
• install xcode
• configure the environment to compile flutter
• migrate config to GitHub actions

until you go away and then back again for to the page

Store the version of the completed onboarding in case we make a change to it and want the user to go through it again, like changing the privacy policy.

Add an indicator to the gear card when the battery is low

Currently Bluetooth starts immediately and prompts for permission on iOS

Require opt in during Onboarding, then ask for permission

Fastlane simplifies auto uploading of new app versions

• Add gem file to repo with fastlane added
• Add a CI job to upload using fastlane when pushed to master (beta) or a release (production)
• sign apps to be uploaded
• create fastlane configuration
• Handle secrets
• Store secrets locally in a safe and redundant place
• Create changelog file and link to fastlane config #130
• Link to store listings for prod and beta tracks #145
• Document fastlane use and required setup to use.

Android secrets can be passed directly from an environment variable.
iOS using the json setup requires a file path to be used.

Version and build number need to be set from the values found in the build jobs. Set them as outputs.

Crumpet has additional moves. Copy them

Waiting on EarGear to be on the unified TailCoNTROL firmware which will include unified move commands

flutter_reactive_ble is barely supported and buggy on iOS. Switch to flutter_blue_plus

This would also let me reduce the number of streams used, reducing the complexity of managing state for gear.

Need to use central characteristic streams for receiving events

This will allow the android language selection menu to automatically be inline with the supported languages

This will allow for organizing logs based on Bluetooth, Triggers, etc.

When the gear color is changed, action card color doesn't update until the page is reloaded

• welcome
• privacy policy
• question if the user has gear/ link to store.
• get required Bluetooth permission with description
• get optional notification permission for foreground service

Enable pull to refresh on all shell pages to scan for known devices

• Add pull to refresh logic to shell pages
  • Should be aware if the pare is scrolled to top
• Add option to settings to always scan

Likely depends on #80

Alternative solution, only check for pull to refresh on the gear bar. This significantly reduces complexity and could be done from all directions

https://docs.flutter.dev/ui/layout/scrolling/slivers

Slivers will allow more reactive scrolling, as well as hiding the app/nav bar when scrolling down.

• Update Shell to use sliver elements
• Update Actions page to use sliver List/Grid elements
• Update Triggers to use Sliver List
• Update More to use Sliver List

• Tutorial for connecting gear
  • Show focus on Scan button
  • Show focus on First gear which appears
• Show focus on Gear icon after connecting
• Show focus on sending an action
• Direct users to Triggers page
  • Show Focus on the Walking trigger
  • Have the user enable the trigger

Secondary on demand tutorials for making a custom move or using the joystick

..would be awesome

Include a changelog in the app, and display it if it has been updated.

• Add a CHANGELOG.md file
• Use same changelog file for #121

Currently Lotties pop in which can look bad

I thought they were buttons and tried to press them. I understand they are just telling me it applies to these devices. Perhaps the outline of the shape isnt necessary - just the device name and a tick?

Add a privacy policy describing how sentry and plausible are used

No PII is stored or collected

Sentry used for error reporting. All PII (IP addresses) are stripped

Plausible only aggregates metrics and cannot be used to identify a specific user

Scanning happens in the background whenever the shell is loaded, There is no reason to scan when all devices are connected

• Move passive scanning to own stateful widget, placed before shell
• Use MultiValueListener monitoring connection state of every known gear
  • pass child so Shell does not rebuild on state change
• Add Continuous/30 Second scan modes

Prerequisite for #79

Update device state on disconnected exception

Add value notifier which indicates any gear is connected

Sentry Issue: TAIL-APP-FP

PlatformException(channel-error, Unable to establish connection on channel: "dev.flutter.pigeon.wakelock_plus_platform_interface.WakelockPlusApi.toggle"., null, null)

Walking trigger is the most popular
EarGear sound is the least

tail_app was a placeholder and isn't user friendly.

Add a toggle to enable/disable firebase notifications
