This release brings a complete UI rework along with many major changes.

Important things first

• Settings are now on the dashboard.
• Config folder moved from ~/.wlxoverlay to ~/.wayvr, but probably start clean.
• Overlays now move together by default. Use both hands and grab different overlays if you want to move them separately. In order to move overlays individually, it's possible to change the per-overlay setting in edit mode.
• Edit mode gives you the power to move all overlays individually (including the watch! move it to your other hand and it will stick!), attach overlays to devices, apply mouse fixes, use SBS 3D mode.
• No need to have the old "WayVR Dashboard" anymore. Feel free to uninstall it.

But wait, there's more

• Custom UI panels with programatically alterable text, colors, images.
• 4 additional languages: German, Japanese, Polish, Spanish (uses your system locale)
• Reworked built-in Wayland server to use Vulkan instead of EGL (fixes NVIDIA-specific issues)
• WayVR Dashboard has been integrated into the main app, and it's been rewritten to be more performant.
• New screen capture method: ScreenCopy GPU. No screen select pop-ups. Works Hyprland, Niri, River, Sway and all wlroots compositors.
