[!WARNING] If you experience immediate bluetooth pairing failures or failure to fully boot after updating, this likely indicates that you need to perform a full erase and flash. Consider backing up your settings before updating.

[!IMPORTANT] This release marks the end of legacy (non-private) DMs. Direct messages will only be allowed using PKI going forward. This release also disables device telemetry broadcasts over the mesh by default. If you want to opt back in, you will need to re-enable this in the apps.
