2018-10-01
Version 3.7 of Mesh Developers Toolkit adds the ability to block messages from remote goTennas by swiping left on an incoming message on the messages tab, or swiping left on a remote goTenna on the devices tab and selecting Block. Messages or shouts from the remote GoTenna will then be ignored, you can restore messages being handled by swiping left on a blocked device and selecting “unblock”.
Blocked devices are coloured red on the Devices tab.
Messages sent to remote goTennas are now shown as “out” and then “Sent” when delivery is confirmed. Outgoing messages are shown as light blue and confirmed messages are shown as dark blue.
A number of improvements have been made to the reporting of messages being resent by the goTenna.
The stability of Multipeer connections has been improved.
This release is build with Xcode version 10 and optimised for iOS 12.
3.6
2018-09-10
Version 3.6 of Mesh Developers Toolkit now generates as message when the iOS device or goTenna’s battery drops below 10%, 5% or 1%.
The message is either sent as a predefined message using the GUID set in the new setting, “Reporting GUID” or as a “script event” if the setting is blank. The new events are displayed in the “Script” tab.
If the goTenna retries sending a message or fails to the send the message, it is recorded in the Messages tab, Colour coded yellow for message resends or red for failures.

2018-09-06
Version 3.5 of Mesh Developers Toolkit allows you to have separate JavaScript scripts for different Events (e.g. "timer event" or "start up" event), if you have not setup a script for an event it will default back to the main "scriptfile".

If the preference is left blank you will see all devices which don’t have a key set.
You can now share any messages received over a Multipeer connection by swiping left on the message in the “Messages” tab and selecting “Share” which will then allow you to share the message using iOS share panel.
