v0.1.6

Latest

China Support & Payments

  • Pay with Alipay in Chinese Yuan — no USD conversion needed
  • Automatic network diagnostics for users behind the Great Firewall
  • No more login flicker or infinite loading spinners

This release is for our users in China. Paying should be painless, and a VPN shouldn't make the app unusable. We also squashed some of the most frustrating bugs.
