What's Changed
A feature-packed release introducing intelligent speed scheduling, automatic file categorization with archiving, system proxy auto-detection, and a complete animation architecture overhaul. The download grid has been replaced with a modern pill-based layout, and all list animations are now powered by @formkit/auto-animate for jitter-free transitions.
✨ New Features
- Speed scheduler — Schedule download speed limits by time period with configurable profiles
- Automatic file categorization & archiving — Downloads are automatically sorted into folders by file type (video, audio, documents, etc.) with configurable categories and auto-archive support
- System proxy detection — One-click detection of OS-level proxy settings (macOS
scutil, Windows multi-protocol registry) with auto-fill into download proxy fields - Fixed brand watermark — The Motrix Next logo now stays centered in the viewport while task cards scroll underneath
🛠 Improvements
- Pill-based download layout — Replaced the download grid cards with a responsive, modern pill-based row layout
- AutoAnimate for all list animations — Replaced hand-crafted WAAPI hooks and TransitionGroup CSS with
@formkit/auto-animateacross three components, eliminating ~110 lines of fragile animation code - Smoother transitions — Updated lock pill animation to use smooth exit, added slide-fade to schedule warnings, and smooth panel transitions for the torrent upload zone
- Auto-archive UX — Improved archive logic with base directory validation and enhanced UI components for consistency
- Proxy detection robustness — Windows multi-protocol parsing, macOS
scutilintegration, minimum detection duration, and structured logging
