Welcome to the v8.2.0 release of the Opentrons App!

This release adds support for the Opentrons Absorbance Plate Reader Module, as well as other features.

Run protocols that use the Absorbance Plate Reader and check the status of the module on the robot details screen for your Flex.
Run protocols that use the new Opentrons Tough PCR Auto-Sealing Lid with the Thermocycler Module GEN2. Stacks of these lids appear in a consolidated view when setting up labware.

Fixed an app crash when performing certain error recovery steps with Python API version 2.15 protocols.

If you attach an Absorbance Plate Reader to any Flex on your local network, you must update all copies of the Opentrons App on the same network to at least v8.1.0.
