I think the Camect auto-updates its software (right?), and I think you guys announce new releases/features on one of these message boards...? But to be honest, I don't tend to read these message boards frequently.
It would be nice if there were an easy way to identify the currently-running software version -- maybe a "v 0.99.x" hyperlink in the bottom right corner of the device's home page that goes to the release notes?
Release notes don't have to be a huge essay -- I'm not trying to create busy work, and I know writing RNs can feel like that -- but maybe just a couple of bullet points? They could just be a link to a "Release Notes" Google Doc, which you maintain by cutting-pasting the latest release notes at the very top, and push older stuff down, with the understanding that the link baked into your software could very well become stale at some point, but that's OK?

Not release notes, but you can see the version you are on in Settings, and info. Go to settings, then click the i next to the device name. Version is dated.

Wow -- I had no idea that information was even available! Thanks for the pointer, Will!

Integrating something like launchnotes.io would be great, then people could subscribe to email updates when new features are added.

Just as an FYI, the IP address you blacked out isn't really personally identifiable since it's your LAN address. I'll hazard it was even 192.168.1.xxx/24 like most of the rest of us. The MAC address that is visible though is actually a distinct identifier tied to the network card of your machine. Not that that is really a problem to have known either, for example every wifi access point you've connected your phone to knows its MAC, but just so you know what you're crossing out or not when posting things.
To the topic at hand, I'm a sucker for stats and would love release notes as well.
