  • 🆕 Light or dark: follows the device’s theme, or stays light or dark.
  • 🆕 ⬇ Export keys file: hand your keys to your other phone or tablet in one file (with a licence; Import works in the beta too).
  • 🆕 A data limit in money (5, 10, 20… a month), handy when roaming.
  • 🆕 Contacts from the phone and from Nextcloud as destinations, next to Google.
  • 🆕 Your own OpenStreetMap search server (Overpass), with the public servers as backup.
  • 67 languages (4 in the beta: English, French, Chinese, Finnish), metric, US or UK units, a colour-blind-safe palette.
