February 2026 OsmAnd-iOS: Delivered a targeted UI improvement by fixing street name truncation in the map UI. Longer street names now display fully across views, improving readability and navigation accuracy. The change, implemented in commit 00dd2128967230f3d7965e5166af73aa8dfeddb2, was validated to prevent regressions across typical map contexts. Impact: clearer labels, reduced user confusion and support inquiries, and a smoother user experience. Technologies/skills demonstrated: iOS UI debugging, robust string rendering, minimal-risk patching, and disciplined version control.
