We’re happy to announce that we’ve just released RealEye v8.5, which contains 2 new features and some improvements: the ability to pin some the items in the desired order and the ability to embed the recordings.

Thanks to the “pinning” feature, you can set control the randomization and eg. define which element will be always presented first or last. Please take a look at the following recording to learn more about the news:
