WhatsNew:

• SFTP: background downloads — download files without blocking the file browser; long-press a file for the "Download in background" option
• SFTP: active downloads can be sent to background at any time using the "Background" button
• Host settings: "Allow Legacy Ciphers" option for connecting to old servers that only support outdated algorithms (AES-CBC, 3DES, DH-group1/14-sha1, DSA)
• Terminal: improved spell-check (word) mode
• Minor bug fixes and improvements

Download Website Source Issues
While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device.
