alpha-3 releasing this week, with full American Truck map support
Hey! Here goes a quick progress update.
Version alpha-3 will be dropping this week, for Android and iOS users. Patrons in the Early Tester tier get access to all the builds.
This version of the app will be compatible with both, ETS2 and ATS, with complete DLC support for both maps. I'm also wrapping up some changes in the UI to include some more information from the telemetry API, so you can expect that too.
Thank you to everyone who participated in the last poll!
There's a lot of love for Promods in the community, hopefully we can get it working into TruckSim GPS soon. We already have a map selector now :) (check 0:11 in the video).
Meanwhile I'm shaping the roadmap for alpha-4, please let me know in the comments if there's any feature you'd love to see soon. I'll share the planned features for alpha-4 as soon as alpha-3 is released in the next few days.

Hello do you have any Mod map on this GPS?
Hey! Not at the moment. Currently, it works only with ETS2 and ATS with all DLCs, but no map mods. Support for map mods will be gradually added in the next alpha builds.
How to get the app?
Hey! The app is still in development. If you'd like to get early access you can join as a backer on Patreon in the Early Tester tier, and you'll get the download link.
Hello, I have a question. Is the map on GPS decoded and shows hidden roads?
Hey, yes, at the moment all the roads are processed and rendered, including hidden/secret roads. Maybe we can have a toggle in the settings to show them or not
Shaping up nicely, good work! Will this work with real company names mods? Not sure if that info is sent by the telemetry server, probably it sends only the game names.
Hey! At the moment the navigation does not work with mods that modify the names of cities or companies. The telemetry outputs the modified name and that breaks the mapping that's done on the mobile side. I have a research item in the backlog to look into adding support for this later down the road.
