# AltosDroid
AltosDroid is the [Android](http://www.android.com/) port of Altus Metrum's
ground station program, designed to work with the [TeleBT](../TeleBT)
ground statiion hardware product. The latest version targets Android
version 4.0 (ICS) or later. An older version is still available that
works on Android 2.3.3 and later.
## Where to Get It ##
The latest released version of AltosDroid is available from
[Google Play™](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.altusmetrum.AltosDroid).
There is also a comparable iOS application available for sale in the
[Apple App Store](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/altosui/id1324401029).
## What It Can Do ##
Current features include:
* Display of key telemetry values
* Telemetry logging to SD card
* Text-to-speech announcements of flight state
* Downlink frequency selection.
## Permissions ##
AltosDroid requires the following permissions in order to be installed:
* NETWORK COMMUNICATION
* PAIR WITH BLUETOOTH DEVICES
<br>
This permission is needed to access Bluetooth communications,
allowing the pairing of and connection to TeleBT units.
* STORAGE
* MODIFY OR DELETE THE CONTENTS OF YOUR USB STORAGE MODIFY OR DELETE THE CONTENTS OF YOUR SD CARD
<br>
This permission is needed so that telemetry logs can be
written to the SD card.
* SYSTEM TOOLS
* ACCESS BLUETOOTH SETTINGS
<br>
This permission is used to request the enabling of Bluetooth
at startup.
## Source Code ##
The source to AltosDroid is part of the [AltOS](../AltOS) repository,
which is always available from [git.gag.com](http://git.gag.com)
in the project [fw/altos](http://git.gag.com/?p=fw/altos;a=summary).
The source is in the `altosdroid/` subdirectory, and is currently
targetted at Android 4.0 or later. You will need to have the Android SDK
installed to build AltosDroid.
## Future Plans ##
Future features we plan to add include flight computer configuration support,
Google Maps integration, and "take me to my rocket" navigation.
