Density from less chrome instead of smaller rows (ROW_H stays 44): - titled screens drop the status bar; the title bar (APPBAR_H) holds back, the title, the screen's actions and the time/battery on a pill; the status bar returns for Home, the map, typing, the quick panel and the lock - one radius (RADIUS) for everything tapped: buttons, tabs, choices, chips - tabs are all segmented at TAB_H in the body (GPS, Clock converted) - Nodes: chips row + sort + status line become one toolbar row with Show / Order choices; Messages' All/Favourites is the same choice - nav map: the target bar only while there is a target; the pin opens one "Places" popup; back from a map options page restores the map and Map tools as left, without a jump - node detail actions at the top of the scroll; Home tiles fill the page - rowsFit() leaves growing labels to the flex (a screen title cut to one letter after Messages' filter changed) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# 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.
|
||
|
||
> [!NOTE]
|
||
> **Wio Tracker L2:** the line over the list holds the count and two choices,
|
||
> which nodes to show and in what order; **Scan** and the map are in the
|
||
> title bar.
|
||
|
||
**Enter** shows a node's details. **Hold Enter**, in the list or the details,
|
||
for what you can do with it:
|
||
|
||
| Option | Does |
|
||
| ------ | ---- |
|
||
| Map | Every node with a position on a map (below) |
|
||
| 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 |
|
||
| Telem | What this contact may ask for: None, Status, Stat+loc, Stat+sens, All. Shown when a [Privacy](./settings.md#privacy) setting is **Allowed** |
|
||
| Path / trace | The route to the node: edit it, trace it, save it (below) |
|
||
| Reset path | Forgets the learned route; the next message floods and finds a new one. Shown when there is a route |
|
||
| Share nearby | Sends the contact's last advert to the nodes in direct range, so they can add it |
|
||
| 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 |
|
||
|
||
**Map** shows the nodes of the current filter that have a position, with you
|
||
and the target, fitted to the screen, north up, with a scale. **Flow** in its
|
||
options draws what the radio hears: each packet as a line from the node that
|
||
sent it, through the repeaters it passed, to you, for a minute; a packet you
|
||
send is a ring around you. Only nodes with a position can be placed, so a
|
||
line may skip a hop. Nodes are dots
|
||
(a diamond for a live share); the selected one is boxed, and the line under
|
||
the map gives its name and distance, with **+n** when others sit on the same
|
||
spot. **Left / Right** selects the next node, **Up / Down** zooms in on it and
|
||
back out, **Enter** opens its details and **Hold Enter** its options.
|
||
|
||
> [!NOTE]
|
||
> **Wio Tracker L2:** **Packet flow** is in the map's options (On the map).
|
||
> Each packet runs along its line as a dot and fades, coloured by kind:
|
||
> adverts blue, direct messages green, channels amber, the rest violet.
|
||
|
||
> [!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**. The telemetry permissions are three
|
||
> switches under **Can ask for**.
|
||
|
||
## Path and trace
|
||
|
||
**Path / trace** in a contact's options shows the repeaters its messages go
|
||
through, in order, and the node at the end. **+ Add repeater** picks one from
|
||
the Nodes list, **Enter** on a hop moves or removes it, and **Left / Right**
|
||
moves it up or down.
|
||
|
||
**Trace** sends a trace along the route and back the same way. Each node
|
||
answers with how well it heard the one before it, so every hop shows two
|
||
numbers in dB: the way out and the way back. Only a node that repeats can
|
||
answer: repeaters do, companions only with repeat on. **To node** off traces
|
||
just the repeaters, which still tells you whether the way to the node is good.
|
||
|
||
With no reply, **Find break** traces to the first repeater, then the second,
|
||
and so on, and shows where it stops. If every repeater answers, the node
|
||
itself didn't.
|
||
|
||
**Save path** makes the list the contact's route; saved empty, messages go
|
||
straight to the node. The route a node sends back usually replaces it again;
|
||
**Keep path** stops that, and keeps the route after failed sends too.
|
||
**Reset path** forgets it, keep included.
|
||
|
||
> [!NOTE]
|
||
> **Wio Tracker L2:** **Route** in a node's card. Each repeater and the node
|
||
> take one line, with the link's out / back dB on the right: green when good,
|
||
> amber when fair, red when weak. Tap a repeater to move or remove it, tap
|
||
> the node to trace to it or stop at the last repeater. **Keep** is in the
|
||
> header, **Find where** appears next to a "No reply". The repeaters can also
|
||
> be tapped on the map, in order (**Map**); **Undo** takes the last one out.
|
||
|
||
## Your own contact
|
||
|
||
**Status › System**, **Enter** shows your contact as a QR code: the phone
|
||
app's scanner adds you from it, with your name and key. On the Wio Tracker L2
|
||
it is in **Settings › About**.
|
||
|
||
## 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.
