Unlike versions 1.3 and 1.4, which included official Plex support for the Plus model, this release primarily features several fixes and introduces a new feature: the BeeCamera Mobile App for iOS and Android platforms.

A notable addition is the new option to back up BeeCamera data to external devices and Synology NAS models, as well as to back up Plex media library content to all supported destinations. Both features, along with the new BeeCamera app, are compatible exclusively with the Intel-powered BeeStation Plus model. As a result, 4TB BeeStation users will receive fewer updates and bug fixes.

The BeeCamera Mobile app is a new product designed specifically for the BeeStation Plus model and works exclusively with the Synology CC400W Wi-Fi camera, which was first announced in November 2023 and released in July 2024.
