“The mempool fee rates histogram on the Send tab has been revamped in this version, featuring finer granularity and the same color scheme used by @mempool. Clicking on the chart expands it, and offers a 24h view.””There are a number of other improvements related to transacting in a high fee environment, such as better error messages when broadcasting with an insufficient fee, and adding additional inputs to an RBF transaction if needed as the required fee is increased.””This release has several optimizations, including much improved performance on very large wallets with high address reuse, and a lighter load on low powered nodes when connected to Bitcoin Core.””The @BorderWallets grid UX has been improved to display the order of word selection and disallow simultaneous multiple selection. There is better @TAPSIGNER support too with the ability to import custom derivation paths and easier backup.””QR scanning is improved with support for inverted QRs and other formats.””There are many further enhancements too – see the release notes for details.”
