 What each Symbiot release brought, newest first. When Approve bumps the version, it writes that release here from the tasks it approved, worded as release notes by your connected AI (or in the tasks' own words without one). The app shows the releases newer than yours under "What's new" when it offers an update, and once more after you update.
 
+## 0.62.1

+- **A phone that had Symbiot before goes to "Your computer" first.** Installing the new app over an older one kept the old app's setup, already started at "Meet Symbiot", so the phone went on to "Your AI" and asked to install Claude Code, and never offered to pair with your computer. An unfinished setup on a phone that isn't paired now opens on **Your computer** (scan the QR your computer shows, or type its address and code), once; "No computer" carries on as before. Checked on the Android emulator: 0.59.0, then 0.62.0 over it (the problem), then this over that (fixed).

 ## 0.62.0 — 2026-10-09
 
 - **Your phone shows your computer's work, and you can act on it there.** Pair Symbiot's Android app (or Symbiot in Termux) with your computer and the phone gets a droplet on Home, **On <your computer>**: your tasks, what needs you, your agents' questions, the work waiting for your Approve, and what Watch found (as notifications too). Tick and add tasks, answer an agent and approve from it. "Watch on your phone" is now **Your phone**, in Settings and in Setup.
