WebRTC M97 Release Notes

Branch: WebRTC M97 branch

Summary

WebRTC M97, currently available in Chrome's stable channel, contains over 10 bug fixes, enhancements and stability/performance improvements. We encourage all developers to run versions of Chrome on the Canary, Dev, and Beta channels frequently and quickly report any issues found. Please take a look at this page, for some pointers on how to file a good bug report. The help we have received has been invaluable!

Note that the WebRTC release notes only cover WebRTC specific changes. Follow the Chromium and Chrome releases blog for further updates on important changes in Chrome releases.

We strongly recommend WebRTC developers to fully test their services in Chrome beta to ensure stability for end-users.
