## Opentrons Robot Software Changes in 7.0.1

Welcome to the v7.0.1 release of the Opentrons robot software! This release builds on the major release that added support for Opentrons Flex.

This update may take longer than usual if you are updating from v6.x. Allow **approximately 15 minutes** for your robot to restart. This delay will only happen once.

### Bug Fixes

- Fixed a problem with empty files being stored in the robot's database if the robot is power cycled at the wrong time.

This was actually technically fixed in 7.0.0, FYI. Your call whether you want to retroactively add it to the 7.0.0 release notes, though.

i did some other retro-fixes, so i will on the API side. gonna leave it in the app side for visibility for OT-2 users who are directly updating 6.x -> 7.0.1


### Known Issues

Some protocols can't be simulated with the `opentrons_simulate` command-line tool:

- JSON protocols created or modified with Protocol Designer v6.0.0 or higher.
- Python protocols specifying an `apiLevel` of 2.14 or higher.

## Opentrons App Changes in 7.0.1

Welcome to the v7.0.0 release of the Opentrons App! This release builds on the major release that added support for Opentrons Flex.

### Improved Features

- Pipettes move higher during Labware Position Check to avoid crashes in all deck slots, not just those with labware loaded in the protocol.

### Bug Fixes

- The app no longer blocks running valid protocols due to "not valid JSON" or "apiLevel not declared" errors.
- Robot commands, like turning the lights on or off, no longer take a long time to execute.
