What's New is an index, not a publisher: every entry below links to the vendor's own release notes, which are the authoritative source. Entries are labelled where they are hand-curated sample data, pre-releases, or drawn from a secondary source such as a developer blog.

Reuse: the summaries, labels and curation here are © What's New. Quote freely with attribution and a link back; wholesale republication of the corpus is not permitted — terms: https://whatsnew.fyi/terms. The vendors' own release notes remain their publishers'.

- **removed** — Episode-limit strictness enforcement
- **added** — Ability to set all limits at once in the main settings screen
- **added** — Manual toggle to include or ignore specific episodes in limit calculations

Everyone hated the new episode-limit strictness, so it's gone!

You can now also set all limits at once in the main settings screen, and manually toggle whether specific episodes are included in or ignored by the limits you set.
