| 12 | +# Roo Code 3.28 Combined Release Notes |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +This version introduces Task Sync & Roomote Control for monitoring and controlling tasks from your phone, plus Roo Code Cloud integration features, enhanced chat editing, conversation preservation improvements, and multiple bug fixes. |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +## Task Sync & Roomote Control |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +Introducing our new cloud connectivity features that let you **monitor and control long-running tasks from your phone** - no more waiting at your desk! ([#7799](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/7799), [#7805](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/7805), [#7850](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/pull/7850)): |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +> **Important**: Roo Code remains **completely free and open source**. Task Sync and Roomote Control are optional supplementary services that connect your local VS Code to the cloud - all processing still happens in your VS Code instance. |
