This article will provide release notes for each version of the Phish Reporter. It will include all the relevant information and changes that are made from 9 February 2023 onward.

  Important Note

Updates happen automatically but do not alter the add-in’s version number. Only the manifest version number is updated, and this does not happen with every release, as it is not directly tied to the add-in’s logic. To ensure all new features are available, it is advisable to use the most current manifest version.
