Short pages by feature (getting started, messages, contacts, navigation,
tools, settings, lock, hardware) instead of one page per OLED screen, with
Wio Tracker L2 differences as notes; facts checked against the code
(keyboard scripts vs. hold-for-accents, {batt}/{dist}, L2 limits and
settings layout). Developer guides and build flags under docs/solo/developer.
Old docs/solo_features and its ~50 screenshots removed; a hero banner and
three simulator screenshots added; links updated.

# Contacts
|
||
|
||
## Nearby nodes
|
||
|
||
**Tools › Nodes** lists the nodes the device has heard: their type, how long
|
||
ago, and, when they have a position, distance and bearing. **Left / Right**
|
||
filters by type (All, Fav, Companions, Repeaters, Rooms, Sensors); the sort,
|
||
by distance or by last heard, is in the options. A ★ marks a favourite, a ♦
|
||
someone sharing their position live.
|
||
|
||
**Enter** shows a node's details. **Hold Enter**, in the list or the details,
|
||
for what you can do with it:
|
||
|
||
| Option | Does |
|
||
| ------ | ---- |
|
||
| Navigate | Distance and bearing to the node; follows it if it shares its position live |
|
||
| Ping | Sends a ping and shows the round trip time and SNR |
|
||
| Save waypoint, Set as target | Its position as a waypoint, or as the [Locator](./navigation.md#locator) target |
|
||
| Fav, Pin to dial | Favourite, or a place on the Favourites page |
|
||
| Admin | Remote admin, for a repeater or room (below) |
|
||
| Discover scan | Asks the repeaters, rooms and sensors in direct range to answer, with their signal |
|
||
|
||
> [!NOTE]
|
||
> **Wio Tracker L2:** the **Nodes** app. Filter chips at the top, the sort in
|
||
> the header, and a map button that shows every node with a position. A
|
||
> node's card has buttons for the same actions, plus **Add** for a node that
|
||
> isn't a contact yet and **Delete**.
|
||
|
||
## Favourites
|
||
|
||
The **Favourites** home page holds six slots for the conversations you open
|
||
most: a contact, a room or a channel, each with its unread count. **Enter** on
|
||
an empty slot picks one from Messages; **hold Enter** on a filled slot to
|
||
replace or remove it. **Pin to dial** in any contact, channel or node menu
|
||
does the same.
|
||
|
||
A pinned slot is not the same as a favourite. **Fav** is the star shared with
|
||
the phone app: it sorts contacts to the top and drives the "favourites only"
|
||
filters in Settings › Contacts.
|
||
|
||
> [!NOTE]
|
||
> **Wio Tracker L2:** the first home page. Tap a slot to open it, hold it to
|
||
> change it.
|
||
|
||
## Cleaning up
|
||
|
||
Settings › Contacts › **Expire** (7, 30 or 90 days) sets when a contact you
|
||
haven't heard from counts as inactive, and **Prune now** removes those after
|
||
showing how many it will delete. Favourites are always kept, and nothing is
|
||
removed without **Prune now**.
|
||
|
||
## Remote admin
|
||
|
||
**Tools › Admin** manages a repeater or room server you are an admin on, the
|
||
same way the phone app does. Pick the node, type its admin password (saved for
|
||
next time), then choose a field:
|
||
|
||
- **System**: name, owner info, admin password.
|
||
- **Radio**: frequency, bandwidth, spreading factor, coding rate, TX power.
|
||
- **Routing**: repeat on/off, advert intervals, max hops.
|
||
- **Actions**: send an advert, sync its clock, reboot, start OTA, or any
|
||
[CLI command](../cli_commands.md).
|
||
|
||
Name and owner info are read from the node first, so you edit the current
|
||
value. Reboot and OTA ask before sending.
|
||
|
||
> [!WARNING]
|
||
> Admin commands change the remote node. Check the node and the value before
|
||
> sending.
