Something I didn't consider when I repurposed button two to send readings continuously, was that someone might leave it on and drain the battery. I added a line, so this would discontinue when the Bluetooth powered down. Luckily, I caught this before it was ever a problem.

I repurposed button three as a mute for the vibrator. When I was driving north one day, it was distracting to get a buzz every few seconds. In this case, I took a long drive so I couldn't gain anything from the input. On weekdays, I commute north, and it is not a problem.

Button three used to stop the continuous feedback, every button did, but I removed that feature. In the testing phase, being able to switch off the motor without losing feedback was convenient.
