Changelog

Full release notes live on GitHub Releases and in CHANGELOG.md. These are the highlights.

0.11.2

Released September 29, 2026.

Improved

A new icon: a postage stamp with an L, lifted off a rose tile, in light and dark versions.
Proper home-screen icons for phones and desktops, so LatestArr looks right when you pin it or add it to your home screen.

Released September 29, 2026. A small follow-up to 0.11.0. Check that ENCRYPTION_KEY is set before you upgrade; see Upgrading to 0.11.1.

Improved

The Add source dialog links each type to its setup guide in these docs, and Plex, BookLore, Grimmory, and Audiobookshelf show a note asking for testers .
The web UI footer links to latestarr.app, the docs, Discussions, and issue reporting.
The Default design footer links to latestarr.app instead of GitHub.
Questions and ideas now have a home in GitHub Discussions .

Fixed

LatestArr checks ENCRYPTION_KEY at startup and exits with a clear message if it’s missing or invalid, instead of starting and failing later when you save a source or SMTP profile.
The Default design’s footer icons now show; a colour bug made them invisible.

Released September 29, 2026. Read Upgrading to 0.11 before you upgrade.

New

Designs: an options-based design editor with a live preview, replacing the drag-and-drop template editor.
Code mode: edit any design as MJML with Handlebars, with inline errors.
Jellyfin and Emby sources. Testers wanted.
Users: more than one person can manage LatestArr, with temporary passwords, deactivation, and SSO linking.
Where to watch buttons like Watch on Plex or Play on RomM, and a choice of where your own buttons go.
Failure alerts by email, Discord, Slack, ntfy, Apprise, or JSON.
Preview and test send for the next issue.
Skip scheduled sends when there’s nothing new.
A show’s new episodes grouped into one row.

Improved

A security review for internet-facing installs: the container no longer runs as root, temporary passwords must be changed first, and sources and mail servers that stop responding time out.
Refreshed Default design, with the date range and counts in the header.
Emails support dark mode and include a plain-text version.
Intro, footer note, buttons, and font now live in designs, migrated automatically.
User import from every source that has users, typing emails the server doesn’t share.
More detailed logs, with a new LOG_LEVEL setting.
Sources show each service’s own logo.
Docker image moves to Node 24 LTS. Mobile layout fixes.

Fixed

TRUST_PROXY=true now reaches the container.
Deleting a design in use switches its newsletters back to Default, with a warning first.
TV episodes use the show’s poster.
Deactivating an account signs it out at once, and sign-in emails aren’t case-sensitive.

Released September 23, 2026.

Import recipients by paste or CSV, or from Plex and Tautulli users.
An intro, footer note, up to four buttons, larger text, and a choice of font.
Send history shows who each send went to, what it included, and a copy of the email.
A new Logs page.
