Latest release: v2.8.1, August 26, 2026.

New features and fixes, release by release.

v2.8.1August 26, 2026

Help with framing a task, a much richer change preview, devices and vertical images in Performance Max, Display images replaced in place

  • A new skill that helps you frame a task before BDOS runs it: goal, scope, boundaries and expected outcome settled in conversation.
  • The product tree in the preview is drawn as a tree, with the names you see in the panel instead of resource numbers.
  • A warning when a change would leave the campaign serving nothing at all.
  • Turning devices on and off in Performance Max campaigns.
  • Vertical 9:16 images for Performance Max, the format used by Shorts and the other vertical placements.
  • Replacing the images in a Display ad in place, so the ad keeps its history and statistics.
  • Excluding an audience list from a campaign, and pausing or enabling a single Performance Max asset group.
  • The change history states the window it actually covered, and now includes campaigns and budgets.
