I got my software updated yesterday on my 2020 Cube Stereo
Motor upgraded to 1.1.5.0
Kiox 4.0.2.0
Battery 1.10.8.0

3 things I noticed:
The Bluetooth connection to the kiox definitely seems to be better. Mine would never connect automatically. I had to disable then enable the Bluetooth on my phone before I got a connection. It seems better now. But time will tell.
On the Bosch app the Ascent / Descent values are shown at last.
The layout of the kiox has changed. a bar has changed to a gage. But can anyone tell me what it is showing?

I'm pretty sure the 'speedo' in the top left corner is an average speed indicator.
Needle to the left = slower than average (orange)
Needle to the right = faster than average (green)

The old one was a couple of bars that worked similar

Not sure what the ! indicates though.

I only updated my Kiox yesterday and haven't ridden yet, my motor is still on the 1.1.2.0 but that will get done at the LBS soon

There are also a couple of new data fields you can choose to display

- a power %split, which appears to show what percent power you're putting in versus the motor
- a riding mode % Split which appears to show what percentage of time you have spent in each assist mode.

I've never seen a Kiosk display so interested to know what kind of perentages you'd see man vs motor. I know there are many factors but what are some ballpark figures you'd get climbing a reasonable grade?

I havent ridden the bike with these new stats, so dont know if they are 'instant' or averaged over the duration of the ride so far, but the bosch app also shows these stats, and in the app they are averaged over the duration of the ride, and for me its usually around 60% motor, 40% me.

I'll see whether on the kiox they are instant or averaged next time I go out.

Another change I noticed is that when you remove your Kiox, and turn it on to check the stats, then it displays the above-mentioned screens as a graph. The same as you see in the Bosch app. I.e. how much time in each mode, and how much input is from you and hoe much from the motor

After upgrading Kiox to 4.0.2.0 version ascent/descent data are available, but are ridicules. I'm using iPhone 5s for connection with Kiox, does anybody has similar problem?

I have an Android phone and don't have this problem.
I suspect your phone is switching into a power saving mode or something preventing it from recording the actual height changes
I try with Android phone and it was little bit better but still not good. What settings in iPhone should I check to prevent it to go in power save mode?

went out for a ride last night, and can confirm that the power contribution field does not show the instant values, but are the total from the ride so far, ie the same as per the bosch app
