What changes does version 1.4 bring for you in terms of devices?

What changes does version 1.4 bring for you in terms of devices?
The ability to create a single, unified mesh network, allowing devices from different brands and ecosystems to join one cohesive network regardless of their origin, thereby eliminating the issue of fragmented, isolated mesh networks. Copy and pasted that. Eating cereal. lol
Also would like to see how enhanced network diagnostics will work

Yes but is's not on the device side, right?

There are 2 buttons in the HA Companion app to share you’re credentials. I also have a HA OTBR integrated into my Thread network, which uses my Apple Thread credentials, but I disabled it, because of sporadic issues after some weeks.
When I enable my HA OTBR it looks like this.
All TBRs are active and use the same credentials. 😉
