-  relaxes the current "twice daily max" data policy, expose this as a clearly

-  separate mode rather than a freeform frequency slider. Example framing:
+  `Smart` should try lightweight background checks of the mirror pointer
-  `Standard` (current behaviour) vs `Frequent` (best-effort extra checks),
+  (`latest.json` / `data_updated`) more often, and only download the full price
-  with conservative caps (e.g. every 4–6 h, not hourly) and copy that does not
+  dataset when a newer snapshot is available. Design goal: better freshness
-  promise exact timing under iOS background scheduling.
+  without pretending to do real-time refreshes or re-downloading the full dump
+  unnecessarily. User-facing copy must be explicit and honest:
+  - `Standard` — Saves battery. Refreshes price data up to twice daily.
+  - `Smart` — Checks for newer data more often in the background and refreshes
+    full prices only when an update is available.
+  Add a footnote/subcopy that background checks are best-effort and happen only
+  when iOS allows, so timing is not exact. Prefer this 2-mode setting over a
+  freeform frequency slider.
