## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.1.0 — 2026-08-14

What's new:
- Customisable keyboard bar: choose which extra keys sit above the keyboard, and how many rows to spread them over
- Encrypted keys: protect a private key with a passphrase and unlock it with biometrics

Also in here:
- Faster cold start, so you reach your connections quicker
- Keyboard bar labels now stay on one line at larger text sizes

Cheers, and more soon.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-08-06

Another small stability update - keep the reports coming, they really help.

What's changed:
- Fixed a crash that could happen right after a connection dropped
- Fixed a crash when importing a private key from a file, if the picker got double-tapped
- Logging out now takes you straight back to your connections with a quick note, instead of a popup - an unexpected drop still offers to reconnect

Cheers, and more soon.

### 1.0 — 2026-05-08

No release notes.
