* Alert snoozing to ignore a specific frequency regardless of location for up to one hour

* Mark warnings show type of mark, distance to mark, and precise bearing to mark

JBV1 requires an ESP-enabled V1 (Bluetooth dongle required) or V1 Gen2 (Bluetooth built-in) Radar Locator.
For V1s prior to V1 Gen2, JBV1 also requires one of the following Bluetooth adapters in order to talk to your V1:
* V1connection
* V1connection LE (recommended)
Both of these Bluetooth adapters are available from Valentine Research Inc.
Permissions:
* MODIFY PHONE STATE is used only to enable your device's speakerphone in some "force speaker" use cases.
* READ PHONE STATE is used only to detect when your device is in a phone call, for improved suppression of alert audio while in a call. No information about a call is ever read, saved, or transmitted.
* RECORD AUDIO is used only for optional voice control.
JBV1 includes an optional Accessibility Service that is used to provide the following optional automation:
* Splitting your screen after app startup or with voice control (Android 7+)
* Locking your screen during app shutdown (Android 9+)
* Taking a screenshot with voice control (Android 9+)
This Accessibility Service is not required and is disabled by default.
