 ## [Unreleased]
 
+- Remote access: pairing QR codes created while the app is open through a public domain (for example behind a reverse proxy) now include that domain as a connection address, so paired phones can reach the server over it instead of relying only on the local network address or the relay.
 - Usage: quota limits enabled for display now refresh every three minutes on desktop, mobile, and VS Code, with a manual refresh action available at any time.
