What's New in renshuu

1.15.22

February 17, 2026

Fixes the page going to the previous page when opening the menu. Unfortunately, the tap-through issue (when tapping an item in the menu) is still present, and I am waiting for a fix from a library that renshuu uses. This only affects iOS 26.x users.
