This is fixed in the code and will be in the next release.

144 commits since v3.5.0, any updates regarding new release?

[smichel17]

I can do a new release any time, it takes around 2 minutes. Well, I guess plus 10-30 minutes to write the changelog.

The reason I haven't is that I merged #287 without adressing all the follow-up points, and I don't want to release a version that can leave the app in a broken state.

[smichel17]

...though, I suppose perhaps this is better than the current state, where the app does not work at all on some devices. I think I'll do a release this weekend and just note in the changelog that root mode is an unstable feature.
