Release History
v1.8

v1.65
- MARK LOG FILES IN REAL-TIME
You can now mark log files by by three finger tapping the screen anywhere (four finger tap now used to restart bTres). You can also mark them by pushing cruise control in and then down. Marked log files will have an asterisk next to their name when viewing the log list and the file names will have "marked" in them.
- NEW CUSTOM ALERTS SYSTEM
Basic alerts are enabled by default, but you can upload a custom json file to define as many alerts that you like using any DS2 data point. You can set them to be minor (yellow), major (red), critical (fast & furious style). You can also define any alert to auto mark the log file.

Then go to the settings on the btres screen and there is a new setting for splash screen that will list your uploaded assets to choose from.

You can get your device id from the left side of your btres admins screen. https://betterthan.shop/pages/log-viewer
