- **Devices on a serial port.** An administrator can let an app read a device plugged into the computer, such as a GPS receiver, a micro:bit or an Arduino, with a new permission in **Applications**; each time an app opens or closes one is in the audit trail, never what the device said. On Linux only, and the kiosk installer prepares the computer for it. A new **Location** applet in the Control Panel explains that NoGaOS has no location service and why, and lists the apps that may read a plugged-in device.
- Fixes: an app from outside NoGaOS that customises a text box or a tree no longer crashes when its window opens.

The `.sha256` file is signed with the NoGaOS release key (`.sha256.sig`, Ed25519); the public key ships inside every build as `release-keys.pem`. To check a download by hand: `sha256sum -c nogaos-247.jar.sha256` and `openssl pkeyutl -verify -pubin -inkey release-keys.pem -rawin -in nogaos-247.jar.sha256 -sigfile nogaos-247.jar.sha256.sig`.
