## New
- "Welcome" screen shown on first-time setup (before touch
calibration), with the splash screen's animated radar graphic and a
Start button.
- The "Setup complete" screen now counts down 7 seconds with a button
matching the Welcome screen's style, then automatically continues
into the app (previously required a tap).
- System menu "Backup & Reset" page (Backup, Restore, and a new
"Reset settings" option that wipes the on-device data and re-runs
first-time setup - useful for testing or handing the device to
someone else).
- Touch calibration targets are now green mini radar reticles instead
of red crosshairs.
## Improved
- The SD card's data folder is now only created after tapping Start
on the Welcome screen, instead of on every boot regardless.
- Flash partition layout changed to free up roughly 850 KB of
firmware space (no OTA update slot needed, since firmware is always
flashed via cable/USB) - lowers flash usage from ~95% to ~59%.
## Fixed
- The Start button and the WiFi scanning screen now show a loading
indicator instead of appearing frozen during SD-card/WiFi
operations.
- A touch-input bug during first-time setup that could corrupt touch
calibration and cause taps to land on the wrong on-screen element
afterward (most noticeable in the WiFi network selection list).

Shows a new FirstRunWelcomeScreen right at the very beginning of the
first-time setup flow (isFirstRun), before touch calibration even
runs: hard-coded English title (no language chosen yet at this point),
the splash screen's radar reticle centered below it, and a large
black/green-outlined "Start" button whose text breathes between a
darker and a lighter, slightly whitish green (~2.5s cycle) so it's the
one element that visibly stands out against the otherwise uniform
green UI. The button intentionally stays unfilled (black) so the
twinkling MenuStars background shows through it.

The header clock now shows 12-hour time with AM/PM when Imperial
units are selected (Menu > Units), instead of always using 24-hour
format - the clock-clear region was widened from 50px to 80px to fully
erase the longer "12:59PM"-style text.
The aircraft detail panel's distance line now also shows miles
alongside km and nautical miles (e.g. "12km / 6nm / 7mi"), since nm
alone wasn't self-explanatory for lay users from Imperial-unit
countries.
Also fixes the radar screen's range button, which still always showed
a fixed "km" label regardless of the Metric/Imperial setting - it now
shows mi (converted) when Imperial is selected, matching the pattern
already used by the altitude legend.
Refreshes firmware.bin to match this build.

The address search screen previously gave no hint about the expected
input format and had no punctuation keys at all on either keyboard
page, making addresses like a house number "45/3" impossible to type.
Adds a localized format-hint line under the title, comma/hyphen keys
on the main keyboard, and swaps four rarely-needed accented letters on
the special-character page for "/", ".", "'", "-". The header and
input field position are now measured dynamically (getCursorY())
instead of assuming a fixed pixel offset, so longer translations of
the hint text don't overlap the keyboard.
Adds a new FirstRunCompleteScreen shown after the location setup step
on first boot: confirms setup is done, names the SD card folder all
data is stored in, and notes that WiFi will reconnect automatically
from now on, with a large "Flightradar" button leading into the app.

Adds a new AddressSearchScreen: enter an address on a dedicated
keyboard (with a special-character page for common European accented
letters), geocode it via the free OpenStreetMap Nominatim service,
confirm the found place, optionally name it, and save it as a new
location preset - no external website needed anymore.
Reachable both from Location Presets > "+" (choice between "by
address" and manual coordinates) and, for new users, from a one-time
FirstRunLocationScreen shown right after the language picker on first
boot, explaining why an exact address beats automatic IP geolocation
and letting them set it up immediately (skippable).
Removes the itilog.com link/tip added in the previous commit (Location
Presets info screen, all 6 languages, and the README) - superseded by
this native in-app flow.

Moves "Flight logbook ON/OFF" into the group of plain on/off toggles
in the Flight Options menu, right under Proximity LED, alongside the
other LED-driven alerts and the ground-vehicle filter.
The inactivity screen timeout (Menu > System > Timeout) now turns the
backlight fully off (0) instead of just dimming it, for users who want
to keep the flight logbook running without needing the screen. Night
dimming (a separate setting) already covers the "just a bit darker"
case and is unaffected. Tapping the screen still wakes it back up to
the configured normal (or night-dimmed) brightness.

Tapping the weather icon in the header now shows a small info popup
explaining that the shown weather always follows the currently active
location (including an active location preset).
The System menu's buttons now fill the available screen height
instead of leaving unused space below, computed from a dedicated
systemRowRect() helper. "Info" (About) is pinned as the second-to-last
entry, directly above Back, so its position stays stable regardless of
how many other entries come before it.
In the Flight options menu, all plain ON/OFF toggles (LED heartbeat,
emergency alert, proximity LED, watchlist alert, hide ground vehicles)
are now grouped together at the end of the list, right above Back,
instead of being interleaved with the screen/list entries above them.

Adds a small weather icon in the header, right where the old camera
button used to be. Shows current conditions (sun, cloud,
sun-behind-cloud, rain, snow, thunderstorm) for whichever location is
currently active, including active location presets, so switching to
e.g. Milan shows Milan's weather. Powered by the free Open-Meteo API
(no API key needed), refreshed automatically every 10 minutes in the
background, or immediately after switching to a different location
preset. Icons are drawn entirely with TFT_eSPI basic shapes (circles,
lines), no image files or extra fonts needed.
The initial implementation failed to parse Open-Meteo's response
(ArduinoJson "InvalidInput") because the API replies with
Transfer-Encoding: chunked and streaming directly from
http.getStream() didn't reassemble the chunks correctly. Fixed by
collecting the full body via http.getString() first, then parsing
that.

Adds a "Logbook / WebUI" entry directly in Menu > System, showing the
device's IP and usage instructions (previously only reachable via a
hidden "?" button in Logbook Files). The web export page now supports
downloading and deleting individual daily logbook CSV files, in
addition to the existing merged CSV download.
Fixes a task watchdog reset that could reboot the device mid-download
when exporting the logbook via the built-in web server: the CSV send
loop never yielded the CPU, starving the idle task on larger logbooks.
The export loop now yields periodically (delay(1) every 10 lines and
after each file).
Removes the screenshot feature (camera button, on-device BMP storage,
web-based screenshot browser). Screenshots always came out solid
black - diagnosis showed the SPI readback from the display returns all
zeros regardless of SPI_READ_FREQUENCY, indicating TFT_MISO isn't
wired to the display on this CYD board revision. This is a hardware
limitation, not fixable in software, so the feature has been removed
rather than shipped broken.

New:
- Flight logbook safety net: disabled by default, requires confirming
a full-screen warning before it can be turned on, and automatically
switches off again after exactly 24 hours - survives restarts and
power cycles (no valid enable timestamp = guaranteed off). Each
activation now writes its own CSV file instead of endlessly
appending to one growing file, and every file can be deleted
individually from Logbook files.
- Adjustable display brightness (10-100% in 10% steps, Menu -> System
-> "Brightness") with a live preview.
- About screen (Menu -> System -> "About") showing project name,
description, and firmware version.
Fixed:
- Radar's red altitude band (>9100m/30000ft) no longer gets dimmed at
night - the previous dim tone looked orange-brown and was hard to
tell apart from yellow. Legend and markers are consistent again.
- Radius change no longer leaves a stale "tail" trail behind each
aircraft between the old and new position.
- Splash screen no longer shows a time-of-day greeting that appeared
too late in the boot sequence to be useful; the star animation now
starts immediately instead of only near the end of boot.
- Clock stayed on raw UTC after the first boot instead of local time
(missing DST handling in some timezones) because the location wait
loop skipped the timezone lookup once a location was already saved.
- Header clock no longer leaves stale digit fragments behind the
current time, most visible on the last minute digit.

Three small usability additions:
- Splash screen now shows a "Good morning/day/evening" greeting under
the title, based on local time (computed after the timezone offset
from IP geolocation is applied via configTime(), not before, so it
reflects actual local time rather than UTC).
- Selecting an aircraft on the radar now also draws a dotted bearing
line plus a degree label from the radar center to the compass edge,
showing which direction to actually look to spot it in the sky
(distinct from the aircraft's own heading arrow).
- The radar info bar now shows "Empty sky for <time>" instead of the
"tap for details" hint whenever no aircraft are currently in range
after all filters, counting up from the last sighting.
