Feature	Description	Date
Streamable HTTP support	--listen serves MCP Streamable HTTP on /mcp (stateless). Replaces deprecated SSE on /mcp.	2026-09-11
Device logs	Read device system logs — syslog, console, and logcat.	2026-09-08
Background daemon for speedup	A long-lived background process that keeps device connections, agents and tunnels warm between tool calls, so each call skips discovery and setup and returns in milliseconds instead of seconds.	2026-09-08
Element refs in UI dump	Every element in the UI dump gets a stable @ref id that can be passed to tap, type, etc., so agents act on elements without coordinates.	2026-09-08
Embed Android Device Kit in the binary	Ship the Android agent as a dex embedded in the executable and run it via app_process, so nothing gets installed on the device and the Device Kit APK goes away.	2026-09-08
Better screenshot handling	Native cropping and scaling, removing the dependency on sips and ImageMagick.	2026-09-08
iOS on Device Kit	Replaced WebDriverAgent with our own Device Kit on real iOS devices too.	2026-09-04
Remove go-ios dependency	Dropped the external go-ios dependency entirely.	2026-09-04
