This update is all about making your billing and model choices smoother. It mostly matters to users who use ClinePass (the app's subscription plan) and want clearer options when they run out of their monthly limits or want to use free AI models.
What's new
- A new limit warning: If you use up your ClinePass (the app's subscription plan) limits, you'll now see a clear error message. It includes a one-click button to switch to usage-based billing, which means you only pay for exactly what you use instead of a flat subscription fee.
- Free model options: When choosing an AI model (the "brain" that powers the app) through ClinePass, you can now select free models. They are organized into "Subscribed" and "Free" tabs, and include descriptions so you know exactly what each model does.
Improvements
- Clearer settings: The text and instructions for setting up ClinePass have been rewritten to be easier to understand. Plus, when you click a "learn more" link, it now opens safely inside the app instead of bouncing you out to a web browser.
- Less clutter: The app removed the old "recommendation" text from the model picker, making it easier to choose an AI without being pushed toward a specific one.
Fixes
- Removed outdated AI: The app completely removed all mentions of "GLM 5.1." This was an older AI model that is no longer supported or needed, so getting rid of it keeps your options list clean and accurate.
