What's Changed
Motrix Next v3.8.8 brings several focused desktop quality improvements from the beta cycle. This release fixes macOS tray icon rendering, improves lightweight-mode window restoration, and adds the recent and favorite folder picker to the default download path setting.
✨ New Features
- Download path history in Settings — Added the existing recent and favorite folder picker to the default download path field in Downloads preferences.
- Shared directory picker — Add Task and Downloads preferences now share the same directory history data, keeping saved paths in sync.
🛠 Improvements
- Preserved the sidebar logo color through the existing Material 3 theme token system.
- Made the sidebar logo visual-only to avoid accidental GitHub navigation.
- Reused the same window-state restore path for startup and lightweight window recreation.
🐛 Bug Fixes
- Fixed macOS tray icon visibility by preserving template image rendering.
- Fixed lightweight mode resetting window size and position after restoring from the tray.
- Preserved saved window geometry before destroying the WebView in lightweight mode.
