Release Notes for v1.5

This is a massive update and we are very pleased that it is now available.

Important Note

Cha-Ching Touch 1.5 requires a new beta of Cha-Ching 2.0 (B99) in order to sync properly. We have made many changes to improve sync speed and reliability. We are putting the finishing touches on a new desktop beta and we will be uploading soon.

We will post more info on the blog and forum once the update is ready to go.
