What's New

Redesigned Extension Management

The entire add-on system has been rebuilt in Flutter, replacing the legacy native Android activities:

  • New Extensions screen with sections for Enabled, Disabled, Recommended, and Unsupported add-ons, plus a one-tap "Check all installed extensions for updates" action.
  • New add-on detail screens (permissions, internal settings, popups) rendered natively via Flutter with platform-view embedding for extension settings/popups.
  • Add-on Store / Browse view — search and browse recommended extensions directly in-app, with app-filter segmented tabs and install flow.
  • Pinned add-on bar + bottom-sheet popups for quick access to extension actions from the browser toolbar.
  • Background update checks with per-add-on status surfaced in the detail screen.

Intent Gatekeeper (new privacy feature)

WebLibre can now prompt you when another Android app tries to open a URL in the browser:

  • Per-package Allow / Block decisions, optionally persisted.
  • Notifications when an external intent is blocked.
  • New Privacy & Security settings screen to manage source-app policies.

Wildcard Container Site Assignments

Container site rules now support wildcards:

  • Enter *.example.com to match the apex domain and every subdomain.
  • Exact-origin entries still win over wildcard matches on conflict.

Restore From Backup During Onboarding

A new "Restore from Backup" option on the welcome screen lets first-time users import an encrypted profile backup before creating any profile, rather than having to finish onboarding first.

Quick Action Icons

The Android launcher long-press shortcuts (New Tab / New Private Tab / New Isolated Tab) now show proper icons instead of blank tiles.

Fixes & Polish

  • Attempted fix for #305 — address bar ghost/suggestion text now rendered via Text.rich to avoid layout/clipping artifacts.
