 ====== Changelog ======
 ~~NOTOC~~
+===== v1.17.0 =====
+Get ready for an **exciting update**! Building on the enhancements introduced in version 1.16 and the launch of **F1 25**, we're thrilled to present a version **packed with features** you've been waiting for.
+==== F1 25 ====
+We're excited to announce that Sim Racing Telemetry now supports F1 25 right out of the gate! The new F1 25 protocol brings crucial telemetry insights, like **dynamic wheel camber**, essential to optimize your cornering traction.
+With the F1 25 integration, you'll also encounter a new exclusive feature, set to roll out across other games soon: **localized numeric codes**. Say goodbye to cryptic readings like "//DRS 1//" or "//Terrain 7//" - and hello to clear interpretations like "//DRS On//" and "//Terrain Tarmac//"!
+As usual, stay tuned for an upcoming update that activates the **Racing Line** feature for F1 25, following the recording of the latest tracks.
+Need help setting things up? Simply hit "**Help**" on the recording screen for detailed guidance.
+==== New SRT file format ====
+As we gear up to launch our **new cloud service** later this year, we're thrilled to introduce a new SRT file format that **slashes file sizes by a third**! This means you'll enjoy quicker telemetry load times and free up valuable disk space.
+To optimize your storage instantly, all existing files will be **auto-converted** to the new format upon your first start-up. This process might take a few minutes ⌛, but trust us, it's worth the wait.
+Our cutting-edge format lays the groundwork for the groundbreaking features that our forthcoming cloud service will unlock. 🤯
+==== Quality of Life improvements ====
+We're committed to enriching your experience with user-friendly, high-performance improvements:
+  * Explore each page easily with our new **guided tour/walkthrough** mode, designed to make navigation and understanding features a breeze.
+  * The **game selection** screen now provides added insights, like session counts and dates of last recordings.
+  * We've swapped out those drab locks 🔒 for stylish stars ⭐!
+  * Organize your sessions by track, car, user, and more with **sortable columns** in the desktop view.
+  * Enjoy quicker session loads and updates, thanks to new **multi-threading** capabilities.
+  * Experience a **streamlined app startup** with descriptive progress information to keep you updated on longer processes, such as file upgrades.
+  * Dive in immediately with one **pre-recorded game session** per game, so you can explore the app's full potential without recording first.
+  * The recording screen now offers **improved readability** with seamlessly integrated game banners and text.
+  * Interactive elements on desktop layouts now showcase helpful **tooltips**, detailing their functionality.
+We're always eager to hear from you, so please share your feedback to help us keep improving!

+===== v1.16.0 =====
+We're excited to present the latest updates to Sim Racing Telemetry, designed to enhance your experience and streamline your workflow.
+In this release, you will find enhancements such as our **revamped Recording Screen**, a more intuitive **Games List with smart ordering**, and improved **accessibility features**, all aimed at making your interaction with SRT smoother and more efficient.
+Read through the details below to discover what is included in this update. Thank you for your continued support and feedback, and we hope you enjoy the improved functionality!
+==== Let's start ====
+  * The classic but essential: **optimizations and bug fixes**!
+  * Most views now feature a **Help** button that points directly to the user manual, helping you discover how to use SRT to its fullest.
+  * Our Games List has gotten smarter! With a **smart ordering** algorithm, your most recently used games will rise to the top, based on their last recorded session. No more tedious scrolling, it's all right there at your fingertips!
+  * Looking for a specific lap to **Compare**? You can now filter the laps by Vehicle, Session Type, and User, making your selection process a breeze.
+  * When the app prompts you to configure a nickname before sharing a telemetry file, you can now do so without leaving the selected session. Keep your momentum going!
+==== Recording Screen ====
+  * Welcome to our all-new **Recording Screen**! While it won't show real-time telemetry just yet, it's a significant upgrade. You'll find useful information about your current recording, including a live chart of the number of telemetry samples received from the game — perfect for spotting any networking hiccups.
+  * We've added an application setting to enable or disable **battery saver mode** during recording. It's enabled by default and this feature lowers screen brightness while recording to help your device last longer.
+==== Views Customization ====
+  * Introducing a new **Telemetry Parameters** selection dialog! We've simplified how you choose and arrange your telemetry parameters, with selected ones now pinned at the top for easy access and reorganization.
+  * Customize the **Lap Table** view by pinning your favorite telemetry parameters at the top! This way, you can transform that wall of numbers into a more manageable and useful display.
+  * Need to configure **Statistics**? Our new workflow lets you quickly select a parameter and customize its stats; you can even search for parameters by name and pin your chosen stats at the top for quick updates.
+  * When in **Trial Mode**, locked Telemetry Parameters are now conveniently grouped in a dedicated section, so you can easily spot the available ones.
+==== Charts ====
+  * All charts now come with options to **maximize, minimize, and restore** them, so you can hide what you don't need and enlarge what you do!
+  * In the Session Charts view, we've enhanced the **Lap Times** and Race Positions charts! Laps with pit stops are now excluded from the lap times chart for a clearer picture of your performance.
+==== Sessions List ====
+  * Filtering just got a boost! The Sessions List now supports **filtering** recordings by Session Type, helping you find exactly what you need.
+  * Our Sessions List highlights the **best timings** from the displayed sessions, making it easy to spot your top performances according to your chosen filters.
+=== Accessibility ===
+  * Updated all colors to improve accessibility, especially for those with **vision impairment**, following the //WCAG 2.1 AA standard//.
+  * Even when using custom palettes, labels automatically select the most visible color to ensure clarity, adhering to the **WCAG 2.1** //relative luminance// directive.
+  * Formatting just got better! We now use spaces for digit grouping according to **BIPM standards**, and values are rounded for a consistent and polished look.
+----
+===== v1.15.1 =====
+==== Racing Line mode in F1 24 ====
+The Racing Line mode is now available for all the tracks of F1 24: open the Track View, press the Mode button, and compare your racing lines.
