What's New in v1.3.4 **Connection alerts — get notified the moment you lose connection, and again the moment you're reconnected. **Smarter auto-reconnect — retry frequency now eases off the longer you're out of range, saving battery on long stretches without a signal.

What's New in v1.2.2 **Longer range with Network.framework Wi-Fi P2P — replaced the MultipeerConnectivity layer with direct Network.framework connections over AWDL (Apple Wireless Direct Link), the same device-to-device radio used by AirDrop. This gives the app direct control over connection parameters for better range. **TCP keepalive keeps the link alive through brief signal dropouts at range edge — connection survives short gaps without reconnecting **Voice-priority radio scheduling — audio traffic is now marked as interactive voice, giving it higher priority on the AWDL radio **Opus FEC (Forward Error Correction) — encoder now embeds redundant audio data for recovery in future streaming mode **Range-Extended and Long-Range audio modes — new lower-bitrate options (8 kbps / 6 kbps) that reduce clip size for better delivery at maximum distance **Smaller audio packets — reduced fragment size for less air-time per frame, improving reliability at the edge of range
