Rec0m88 Release History

Every Rec0m88 release, newest first. Most of this page builds itself from the release notes that ship with the app, so it updates on its own when a new version goes out rather than waiting for someone to remember to edit it.

If something here does not match what you are seeing, check the version number in the app first. If it still does not line up, or a fix listed below did not actually fix things for you, tell us on the contact page and we will sort it out.
