# Release checklist — Circle 1.16.2

## Before tag

- [x] Unit tests green (`./gradlew testDebugUnitTest`)
- [x] Logo 2 (lasso) as launcher + QS
- [x] Display name Circle / Circle Overlay
- [x] DEMO, dogfood, non-goals, marketing, shortcuts, brand docs
- [x] On-device install + Circle Overlay enabled (`make smoke` on CrklEmulator)
- [ ] Dogfood checklist once (Translate / Explain / Share / Vikunja / real app)
- [ ] Record 45s demo

## Tag (when ready)

```bash
cd ~/Documents/code/crkl
git status
git tag -a v1.16.2-circle -m "Circle: lasso brand, VIP chips, shortcuts, ship docs"
git push origin main
git push origin v1.16.2-circle
```

## Install

```bash
./gradlew assembleDebug
adb install -r app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk
adb shell am start -n com.example.crkl/.MainActivity
```

Re-enable **Circle Overlay** after every reinstall.

## Emulator tips (macOS)

Prefer `make emulator` (launchd) — agent/Cursor sandboxes often kill nohup qemu.
Then: `make wait-emulator && make install && make smoke`
