Cherry Studio 0.5.1
Features
- [Larger Screens] Improve two-column layouts on portrait iPads, foldable devices, and other wide windows, keeping the sidebar beside Agents, Paintings, Plugins, Skills, Settings, and other pages.
- [Files and Search] Show file lists, previews, and conversation search results in the left column while keeping the corresponding chat visible on the right.
- [Window Adaptation] Preserve the current page when rotating or resizing the window, and improve the iPhone Duo half-folded layout, top safe areas, and reading width.
Fixes
- [iOS Provider Settings] Fix duplicate entrance animations and header flicker when first opening Model Services.
- [Image Sharing] Apply the same image import processing to system shares and picked files, preventing oversized uncompressed images from causing request failures and improving recovery and cleanup after cancellation.
- [File Management] Preserve original bytes and source information when copying outside files into a workspace, avoiding repeated imports and re-encoding.
- [Android Navigation] Fix underlying pages intercepting Back after opening another page over the sidebar, file pane, or painting template.
- [Image Generation] Apply a 10-minute timeout to the agent image-generation tool so an unresponsive provider does not leave the task waiting indefinitely.
- [Desktop Connections] Clear a previous manual disconnection state when pairing the desktop again.
- [iOS Notifications] Alert on reply failures even when completion notifications are disabled, with in-app attention while the app is open.
- [Background Tasks] Complete the built-in tool names shown in background status cards and notifications to make task progress clearer.
Architecture Upgrades
- [Health Data] Read health summaries through the app's native health module and remove a duplicate dependency.
- [Runtime and Dependencies] Simplify agent task planning, permission handling, and file imports, and remove unused AI SDK and notification patches.
Upgrade Notes
- Install the new 0.5.1 app package to receive the native module changes in this release.
