Requests for Future Improvements with the AL Priority

[shanetrainST]

Recently I bought a Apple Watch, and there is quite a few apps in the store that have support for the watch to display notifications.
Would it be possible to add it to ALPConnect iPhone app? And a simple gesture like a wrist twist to mute alerts

I know this can't be implemented on the current ALP even on a hardware update, however when the next generation jammer comes out maybe in a couple of years? Connectors the way they are at the moment are quite large and do not fit through grills, it would be really great to see a skinnier connection, wil it would be great to see a standard USB connection I understand, though there must be some compromise option between the current large circular connector or a miro-usb as used on stinger laser heads on LAB-14's.
While I could make the current ALP head fit with grill mods, I would really prefer not to have to mod my grill.

The Twist and lock connector will not be changing any time soon. We have too many existing customers and we have to make sure if a sensor needs to be changed that they can keep the existing wiring in the vehicle and disconnect the sensor and replace it with a new one. If and when new sensors are ever developed they will be backwards compatible so again wiring would not need to be changed to keep installation costs down and give users the ability to replace sensors without going to a shop and running all new wiring.

geez u must have very narrow grills even when they are tight the plastic will give a little, though i aint seen the very latest mine are the din type

Yeah, I'm aware, I have the DIN connector too it don't fit through the grill.

thats a bummer

Then perhaps another way could be implemented allowing you to remove the cable from the head to allow these sort of installs. In this suggestion I did not have the ALP in mind, but what ever succeeds the ALP in years to come, I know this could not be implemented here and now in any way but I am sure there is some way to make the connectors skinnier, even if it is a head minus the din connector with a straight through to the control unit with only an RJ connector as a possible option?

suggestion possible could u make a small cut in a sec of the grill to allow a little give in the plastic to get the cable through , hope fully the cut part will spring back into position and with a little help of super glue, always hard with new cars but as time goes by it will be forgotten

As well have said in other threads I am uninterested in cutting the grill.
