## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.7 — 2026-09-02

The JSON validator no longer crashes on a malformed surrogate pair and reports it as an error instead. Compare JSON now handles very large inputs without running out of memory.

### 1.0.6 — 2026-08-31

Ad slots no longer leave an empty band when nothing is served, and a banner now fits its space exactly.
You can contact us straight from Settings.

### 1.0.5 — 2026-08-27

Fixes ads failing to load on screens that show more than one banner, and adds a Privacy options row in Settings so you can change your consent choice.

### 1.0.4 — 2026-08-11

Ads now load reliably after the tracking prompt, and banners span the full screen width. Stability fixes.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-07-16

Performance and stability improvements.
