# Semaphor 2.0.0 Release Notes
We’ve reached a major milestone with Semaphor version 2.0.0. Since our last major public release in June 2017, everything about Semaphor has been examined, improved, and polished. A huge part of this process has been the feedback we received from Semaphor users. Your feedback, suggestions, and reports make a huge difference to our team. Please don’t ever hesitate to reach out to us through support.spideroak.com, @SpiderOak on Twitter or on Facebook at facebook.com/SpiderOak.
The first thing you’ll notice when you download Semaphor is the redesigned UI. Our design team has done amazing work to take the original vision of Semaphor and bring it to life through the new UI and UX. We hope you’ll enjoy using it as much as we do. (The entire SpiderOak team uses Semaphor for all of our team communications and we love the new look and feel!)
