- See prices in your own currency — Retrodex now converts every price to your local currency automatically, and you can switch to any of 30+ currencies in Settings. - Catalog updates now finish downloading in the background, so new systems and prices land reliably even if you don't keep the app open. - Gameplay videos now play with sound by default — tap a video to mute it, and you'll be asked once if you'd like them muted from then on. - Widescreen gameplay videos now fill the player instead of showing black bars. - TV Flashback clips no longer close when you tap outside the video by accident. - Behind-the-scenes stability improvements.
