What's new in 1.0.5: • Ready for Android 17: apps now need your permission to talk to devices on your Wi-Fi. Without it, NVRs, VLC, browsers and ONVIF apps cannot reach CamRelay. The app asks for it and explains why. Skipped it? Use the banner in Settings. • Now in Vietnamese. Camera names and settings options are translated in every language. • Fixed: the web File Manager stayed on "Loading" in French and Italian. • No change on Android 16 and older.
