What's New in Stolo Systems

1.1.3

October 2, 2026

• Stolo radios: pair a radio running Stolo firmware, such as the SenseCAP T1000-E, over Bluetooth with no code to type. Rename it, check its battery, and change its radio settings from Connections. Get the firmware at stolo.io/download. • Clearer radio pairing: tap a radio to pick it, then press Connect. If a radio isn't accepting new phones, the app tells you how to open pairing on it. • Guided setup for more connection types: UDP, I2P, an RNode on your Wi-Fi, and accepting incoming connections. • Less spam: someone who isn't in your contacts now has to attach a small proof of work before their message reaches you. Trusted contacts and network members are exempt. Adjust it or switch it off in Settings → Security → Trusted contacts. • Sending to someone who asks for proof of work no longer floods retries while your phone prepares it. If it takes more than a minute, you can keep going or stop sending.
