Validated distance per mode of transport and 17 gold achievement coins that spin in 3D. Optional sync is encrypted to your own key (NIP-44 over NIP-78), so relays only get ciphertext. <br/>Obviously it&#39;s opt-in, off by default<br/><br/>• NIP-58 badge support in the client, so you can showoff your badges to other people, let them know who&#39;s boss.

I&#39;m incredibly excited to announce the first stable release of Roadstr!<br/><br/>For those who don&#39;t know it yet, Roadstr is a free, open-source, decentralized navigation app for Android, powered by **Nostr, Bitcoin Lightning, and OpenStreetMap**, with absolutely no Google dependencies.<br/><br/>Since v0.5.0, the project has evolved enormously. And the biggest change? Roadstr has been rewritten from Flutter to native Kotlin, with Jetpack Compose and MapLibre!<br/><br/>Here&#39;s what we&#39;ve built along the way:<br/><br/>🗺️ A whole new navigation experience<br/>- Beautiful OpenStreetMap-based maps with 3D tilt, rotation, light/dark themes, and customizable vehicle cursors.<br/>- Possibility to choose from 4 different tier of power consumption to accomodate both entry level phones and flagships.<br/>- Real-time turn-by-turn GPS navigation, automatic rerouting, multiple route alternatives, and multi-stop planning.<br/>- Navigation that keeps running even when your screen is off.<br/>- Driving, walking, and cycling routes, with OSRM, GraphHopper, and OpenRouteService support.<br/>- Live speed limits, speed-adaptive zoom, and customizable speedometer HUDs.<br/><br/>🌍 OFFLINE MAPS &amp; NAVIGATION<br/>- Downloadable worldwide maps using Geofabrik and Shortbread MBTiles.<br/>- A hierarchical map catalog covering continents, countries, regions, and over 34,000 cities!<br/>- Verified, resumable downloads and local map rendering.<br/>- Optional offline routing powered by an on-device Valhalla engine, using separate routing packages.<br/>- Support for custom and self-hosted map catalogs.<br/><br/>🤖 AI VOICE GUIDANCE — WITHOUT THE CLOUD<br/>- Natural-sounding, on-device voice navigation powered by Kokoro-82M and Piper.<br/>- No cloud AI API required. Voice generation happens directly on your phone.<br/>- Multilingual guidance, downloadable voice models, and adjustable voices.<br/><br/>⚡ NOSTR + BITCOIN LIGHTNING<br/>- Decentralized road reports for accidents, traffic jams, hazards, police activity, and speed cameras.<br/>- Community confirmations, report corrections, and activity notifications.<br/>- Reports created without connectivity can be queued for later publishing.<br/>- Send Lightning zaps to people contributing useful road information!<br/>- Nostr Wallet Connect (NIP-47) support.<br/>- Secure Nostr login through Amber (NIP-55) and remote bunker signers (NIP-46). Your private key stays outside Roadstr.<br/><br/>🔎 SMARTER EXPLORATION<br/>- Search addresses, businesses, brands, and points of interest using OpenStreetMap.<br/>- Natural-language searches like &#34;restaurants near me&#34; or &#34;gas stations along my route.&#34;<br/>- Detailed place information, Wikipedia integration, and contextual amenities.<br/>- Weather information along your journey.<br/>- Open-data public transport itineraries where supported.<br/><br/>💾 MORE FREEDOM &amp; CUSTOMIZATION<br/>- Save places, parking locations, and complete routes.<br/>- Encrypted, optional cross-device favorites synchronization through Nostr.<br/>- Optional SearXNG integration for web search.<br/>- 27 supported interface languages.<br/>- Nostr Violet and Bitcoin Orange themes, with automatic dark mode.<br/>- Integration with Tankful for sharing destinations directly into Roadstr.<br/><br/>🛠️ AND A LOT OF WORK UNDER THE HOOD<br/>- A completely rewritten native Android architecture.<br/>- Performance and battery optimizations.<br/>- Improved GPS handling, navigation stability, and Nostr relay resilience.<br/>- Extensive automated testing and real-device validation.<br/>- An in-place upgrade path from the old 0.5.x releases, preserving supported user data and settings.<br/><br/>And of course, Roadstr is fully open source. No proprietary navigation platform, no mandatory Google account, and no centralized Roadstr traffic-reporting server. Download the code, break it, make it better, sell it, copy it, I don&#39;t care.<br/><br/>This project started with a simple idea: what if navigation could be open, community-driven, and powered by decentralized technology instead of another closed ecosystem?<br/><br/>Today, Roadstr 1.0.0 is one big step closer to that vision.<br/><br/>It&#39;s still an independent project, and there&#39;s plenty more to build. But reaching the first stable release feels like a huge milestone. <br/><br/>Thanks to everyone who has tested Roadstr, reported bugs, shared feedback, or simply followed its development ❤️<br/><br/>Get the stable release from <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/nprofile1qy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uq32amnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwv3sk6atn9e5k7tcqypuvuma2wgny8pegfej8hf5n3x2hxhkgcl2utfjhxlj4zv8sycc8622zjna" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Zapstore</span> (<span class="italic">nprofile…zjna</span>)</a></span> <br/><br/>Source code: <a href="https://github.com/roadstrapp/roadstr-app/">https://github.com/roadstrapp/roadstr-app/</a><br/><br/><br/>The roads belong to everyone.

But it depends on the actual HW, if it has an ARM SoC and runs Android/Linux already, in principle you could port something like LineageOS like you would do to a phone.<br/>But shit could hit the fan when we&#39;re talking hw support: bootloader unlocking, kernel/device tree, GPU/display drivers, audio, touchscreen, Bluetooth/Wi-Fi etc I highly doubt that manufactures feel like sharing their stuff and dumping all the blobs of all the hw it&#39;s a project on it&#39;s own. <br/><br/> 2026-09-15T16:20:32Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsqqfkhweu6600ww9gunt23nys5e0vw7y5xwyg0vvhmn06h69aumsszyrpe9dahdd63pd6l0jsdfyaxg9el739alt9zqa80adhzxgvcmq88g6xj33l Roadstr v0.5.8 is out. 🛣️<br/><br/>New: &#34;Avoid unpaved roads&#34; — a routing preference that steers you away<br/>from OSM-tagged tracks and dirt roads whenever a paved way exists.<br/>Comes straight from a field report of a near-crash on a routed dirt<br/>track — applied automatically to every route once you turn it on, and<br/>always honest that it&#39;s a best-effort steer, never a guarantee.<br/><br/>Also in this release:<br/>• Road reports made with no signal now queue and publish automatically<br/> the moment you&#39;re back in coverage — no more losing a report because<br/> the spot that needed it had no bars.<br/>• Settings can be opened mid-navigation now, without stopping the trip.<br/>• Off-route recalculation no longer boxes you into a U-turn after a<br/> deliberate detour.<br/>• &#34;Recalculate&#34; after a traffic-jam alert actually avoids the jam now.<br/>• Fixed Bluetooth music/podcasts staying paused after voice guidance.<br/>• Fixed GPS silently giving up after a location-provider hiccup.<br/><br/>Full changelog + APKs: <a href="https://github.com/roadstrapp/roadstr-app/releases">https://github.com/roadstrapp/roadstr-app/releases</a> or updat via Zapstore.<br/><br/>Free, open-source, no tracking, no Google dependency.<br/><br/>#Nostr #Roadstr #OpenStreetMap #GrowNostr #FuckGoogle 2026-09-14T18:22:10Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqszjq8l2nujcpcjqu686cu4vp7e9eu4p4gkr32zs9qz0g8s2ylk8nczyrpe9dahdd63pd6l0jsdfyaxg9el739alt9zqa80adhzxgvcmq88grqhkej Roadstr v0.5.7 — new look 🎨<br/><br/>Got tired of that flat material3 UI.

The map was opening a new database watcher on every GPS fix and couldn&#39;t close the old ones fast enough, so after a few minutes of driving it ran out of memory. Fixed, and covered by tests so it can&#39;t come back quietly.<br/><br/>Also fixed, all reported from an actual drive:<br/><br/>• Roundabout signs drew too many arms. Where a road meets a roundabout as two separate carriageways it got counted twice — a four-exit junction drew as seven. The spacing between those two points depends entirely on the size of the roundabout, so the fixed threshold could never work. It&#39;s measured from the ring now. And when the shape still can&#39;t be resolved confidently, a plain roundabout is drawn instead of a wrong one: on the road, a sign showing the wrong junction is worse than one showing no detail.<br/>• The map no longer occasionally spins 180°. Standing still the GPS drifts, and the direction of travel was being measured from where it had drifted to.<br/>• More restricted-traffic zones detected. Most are tagged in OpenStreetMap as time-limited, and those tags weren&#39;t being read at all — eleven restricted streets in one Italian city centre the app simply couldn&#39;t see before.<br/><br/><a href="https://github.com/roadstrapp/roadstr-app/releases/tag/v.0.4.18">https://github.com/roadstrapp/roadstr-app/releases/tag/v.0.4.18</a><br/><br/>#Nostr #Roadstr #OpenStreetMap #GrowNostr #FuckGoogle<br/> 2026-08-10T09:47:41Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsqs3h2vcnnz2hfuztn8mzlwuqmvvxzdnjx8j2cx8j06gr5kek7nlqzyrpe9dahdd63pd6l0jsdfyaxg9el739alt9zqa80adhzxgvcmq88gfghvl5 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqqqrzdhe34dw72keyghvgp7wrk5ux42x0ph4skks0pjnn8ez0txql42nzm'>nevent1q…2nzm</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Hopefully it&#39;ll be a reliable app. <br/>I started this out of spite of Google Maps, an app that I love.
