Release Notes

This page will list what's currently working with each release. Whilst the web app is still in development it may require you to fully remove it from your device and reinstall for some of the new features to get picked up. 

Please note - at present we have not optimised this beta so it will be pulling down all the resources (and more) it needs at once. We therefor recommend that when installing you do this via a wifi connection for speed and to save mobile data.
