Kameleo 5.1 shipped on August 3rd. The biggest change in it: mobile profiles are no longer a Business-plan-only feature. Every plan gets them now, including Free, and it traces back to the same instinct behind most of what we ship: build what people ask for, not what fits neatly inside a pricing tier.
We built our first mobile browser in 2019, years before "mobile fingerprint" became a phrase people searched for. It ran on real Android devices, not emulation, and those devices had to be paired with a desktop machine to run. Between the connection issues that setup caused and what we heard from users, directly and indirectly, we realized that wasn't what people needed. What they wanted was a mobile browser they could drive with Selenium or Playwright, without a physical device in the loop. So a few years back we shifted toward emulating mobile browsers on desktop instead, where masking and automation both hold up.
That shift is also what made this release possible: once mobile worked reliably on desktop, restricting it to the priciest plan stopped making sense.
Mobile Profiles Are No Longer a Business-Plan-Only Feature
Mobile profiles used to require a Business subscription. Free and Startup accounts didn't get the option at all, regardless of how much they wanted to try it. In 5.1 that changes: mobile profiles are now available on every plan, including Free, with a mobile concurrent browser (CB) limit set separately from the total CB limit. Instead of an all-or-nothing gate, cheaper plans get a smaller mobile cap and full access to run those profiles in production, with enough room to prove the concept at a small scale.
The sidebar quota tooltip now shows both numbers, total and mobile, so the limit is visible instead of something you discover by hitting it.
Why We Opened It Up Now
Mobile profiles have always been treated as an advanced-user feature, which is part of why they lived behind Business. Startup-tier and even Free-tier users kept asking for access anyway, treating "advanced" as a description of what the feature does, not a reason they should be excluded from it.
The separate mobile CB limit is the mechanism that made saying yes possible. An all-or-nothing gate means a plan either includes mobile or it doesn't; a scoped limit means a cheaper plan can include mobile at a smaller scale without absorbing the cost of unlimited mobile usage. That distinction turned a support request into a shipped change instead of a promise.
Mobile is also one part of a wider push to cover more operating systems and browser combinations. The immediate change in 5.1 is concrete: more of you can run mobile profiles in production today than could yesterday.
Try It Yourself
Try mobile profiles on the Free or Startup plan if you've been waiting on a Business upgrade to test them. The mobile CB limit is visible right in the sidebar, so you'll know exactly what you're working with before you hit it.
