What is Radarr?

Radarr's 7.0 pre-release line now shows every audio and subtitle stream per file.

Radarr's 7.0 pre-release line is on its second build. 7.0.0 moved the app to .NET 10 and added OIDC login, PEM certificates and Trakt Smart List imports. 7.0.1 follows with media info that lists every audio and subtitle stream, full Transmission label support and clearer import-failure messages. The main branch is still on 6.4.4.

What is Tango?

Tango's 2026 releases stay on workflow guides, capped by a rebrand and basic editor shortcuts.

Tango captures browser workflows into step-by-step guides, and its 2026 releases deepened that core: voice narration during capture, branching for different paths, translations, video embeds and Enterprise governance. The latest entries are a September rebrand with new fonts and colors and undo/redo shortcuts in edit mode. The AI CRM Admin browser agent launched in April 2025 has had no follow-up in the feed since.

Radarr vs Tango: editorial side-by-side

R

COLLAB
5.0

Radarr's 7.0 pre-release line now shows every audio and subtitle stream per file.

◆ Current state

Radarr's 7.0 pre-release line is on its second build. 7.0.0 moved the app to .NET 10 and added OIDC login, PEM certificates and Trakt Smart List imports. 7.0.1 follows with media info that lists every audio and subtitle stream, full Transmission label support and clearer import-failure messages. The main branch is still on 6.4.4.

◆ Where it's heading

The 7.0 cycle pairs a platform upgrade with deeper file-level detail: media info, import diagnostics and download-client labels. The media info migration was split into batches to avoid running out of memory, which shows the team is hardening the upgrade path for large libraries before a stable release.

◆ Prediction

More 7.0.x pre-release builds with import and media info fixes are likely before 7.0 reaches the main branch; the entries do not show a date for that promotion.

0.0

Tango's 2026 releases stay on workflow guides, capped by a rebrand and basic editor shortcuts.

◆ Current state

Tango captures browser workflows into step-by-step guides, and its 2026 releases deepened that core: voice narration during capture, branching for different paths, translations, video embeds and Enterprise governance. The latest entries are a September rebrand with new fonts and colors and undo/redo shortcuts in edit mode. The AI CRM Admin browser agent launched in April 2025 has had no follow-up in the feed since.

◆ Where it's heading

The documentation product gets steady depth features while the AI agent bet has gone quiet in the changelog. The rebrand suggests a repositioning, but the entry does not say toward what.

◆ Prediction

It is unclear from the entries whether the rebrand signals a renewed AI agent push or a refocus on documentation; the next feature release should show which.
