- Fixes an error when sending a feedback form. The feedback was not sent if automatic error reporting was disabled.
- Fixes a crash when running SimpleSYN Mobile side-by-side by multiple users on the same machine.
- Do not respond with an error if the client retries the deletion of a previously deleted item.
- If the client tries to update a write-protected folder, a wrong status code was being sent.
- Fixes an error while synchronizing calendar data which caused some Android devices to not be able to edit appointments at all.
- Fixes an error in the association of meeting requests and appointments. This error caused the iPhone or iPad to show the appointment twice.
- Fixes an error while importing time zone information in meeting requests. Depending on the time zone, meeting requests could not be send. Also fixes an error in time zones without a daylight saving time.
- After a meeting request was send, the meeting was not correctly flagged as being send.
- Fixes an error in the inital configuration page. The settings were sometimes not immediately saved which causes the setup of the devices to fail.
- Enhances the compatibility with more restrictive network environments. A fallback to plain HTTP can now happen if no WebSocket connection to our central servers is available.
- Some internal errors were not logged correctly, which made diagnosing them difficult.
- Fixes a crash during the detection of the synchronization status.
- Fixes a crash while downloading an update.
- Minor optimizations and fixes.

- Additional minor fixes and improvements.
- Fixes an error when adding calendar items. Some time zones were not correctly converted, which lead to unsynchronized items.

- NEW: Exchange server accounts can now be synchronized.
- NEW: Simplifies the manual connection configuration.

- In future, SimpleSYN Mobile will correctly restart when being updated automatically.
- An error when synchronizing monthly recurring appointments has been resolved. Note: If you have synchronized monthly recurring appointments, they will only be corrected during the next synchronization. You can either change those appointments in Outlook to force a synchronization, or you can remove the SimpleSYN Mobile account on your device and recreate it. This will force a full re-synchronization of every item.
- There was an error in the setup program, which prevented SimpleSYN Mobile being installed on some Windows language configurations.
