  • Working "disconnected" mode if no robots are plugged in
  • Single button save to disk option
  • Block improvements for Finch: text to speech, set beak color to a color picker color, six orientation boolean checks.
  • Plus countless improvements made by the Snap! team. Download and try it out today!
