• VPN fixes resolved through unifying 2 background services (TorVPNService, TorService) into one (OrbotService)
• Update tor to 0.4.2.7 and obfs4proxy to 0.0.12 latest
• Brand new "beta" integrated bridge fetch feature through Tor's MOTE service (just like in Tor Browser)
• Brand new custom bridge configuration, setup UI
• Zulu language random switch bug FINALLY fixed.... now the language you choose remains! (sorry, Zulu!)
• and much more...
