Would be great to have it. As you pointed out earlier the "reset" function is there by pressing the sensor button but a pinch/zoom would be a fantastic feature and very intuitive.

The app allows for Y axis zooming during observe: If you scroll back in time and the graph is not "pinned to now", you can zoom in or out. If you are "pinned to now", you can zoom out.

Does this cover your use-cases? If not, why not?

Thanks!

Sorry about the delay. Generally nice to be able to zoom in/out. However, I'd love to zoom in also when it's pinned to "now" so the realtime view. That's the most common usage case that for example artefacts make the actual signal very small in autoscale mode but the interesting bits are between the artefacts. It would be great if the button were rather one which re-enables autoscaling while being in "pinned to now" and that once a person starts to pinch zomm/in/out that autoscaling is disabled until manually re-enabled. Could be just re-enabled by pressing the sensor button or by replacing the "pin to now" botton by one for autoscale? zoom_in_out
