What's New in v1.9.6
UI Fixes
- Fixed Top 10 ranked rows: poster cards no longer overflow their container in poster layout mode
- Poster card sizes refined across all screens for better fit
- Details page "More Like This" titles now show up to 2 lines instead of being cut off
- DNS Provider setting is now properly focusable and clickable via D-pad
- Loading screen now uses app logo with pulse animation (contributed by @Himanth-reddy)
- Modal dialogs dismiss on tap outside and have improved scrim (contributed by @Himanth-reddy)
Playback & Streams
- Debrid placeholder streams ("torrent being downloaded", "not cached", etc.) are now blocked from auto-play and show a toast when manually selected
- Playable streams are sorted above pending debrid entries in the source list
- Player subtitle rebuild loop fixed (was causing infinite re-preparing and flickering)
Cloud Sync
- 11 missing sync calls added: subtitle size/color, IPTV hidden groups/reorder, profile CRUD, watched toggle
- Logout now clears all local user data (settings + auth)
- Comprehensive real-time sync between devices
Persistence Fixes
