I am requesting two usability enhancements for the Litchi mobile interface during active Waypoint missions to improve situational awareness and operational safety.

### **1. Active / Last-Passed Waypoint Visual Highlight**

- **Proposed UI Change:** Highlight the waypoint number icon corresponding to the aircraft’s current target or most recently cleared waypoint. This could be rendered with:

- **Problem / Use Case:** In complex or dense waypoint grids with dozens of markers, identifying the aircraft’s exact progress along the flight plan can be difficult at a quick glance—especially when operating in bright outdoor conditions. A dynamic visual indicator allows pilots to instantly pinpoint the drone’s position within the route sequence without manually scanning numbered markers.

### **2. Device System Time On-Screen Display (OSD)**

- **Proposed UI Change:** Add an optional display toggle in settings to show the mobile device’s local system time (e.g., `14:32 EST`) directly on the top telemetry bar or primary OSD layer.

- **Problem / Use Case:** Pilots frequently need to monitor real-time clock schedules (for battery management, site access constraints, or airspace compliance) during a flight. Displaying local time directly in the telemetry layer eliminates the need to pull down device status bars or look away from the flight controls and visual line of sight.
