Changelog

New

• Sidebar: the "Sidebar layout" setting is now Simple or Advanced. Advanced brings back nested workspaces, up to three levels, as in Rambox 2.
• Sidebar: drag an app onto another to group them into a new sub-workspace, with a live preview.
• Sidebar: pin apps to the first column of the rail, below your workspaces.
• App markers: add a small chip to an app's icon to tell apart two instances of the same app.
• Passkeys, two-factor prompts and security keys now work inside apps on Windows, macOS and Linux, with a passkey autofill list like Chrome's and a security-key prompt that can be cancelled. macOS: passkeys work with Touch ID. Windows: your Windows Hello passkeys are listed. If you use a password manager extension, it handles your passkeys, as in Chrome.
• When a site asks for a client certificate and more than one matches (smart cards, mutual TLS), Rambox asks which one to use.
• Extensions: side panels open to the right of the active app (Bitwarden, Grammarly).
• Extensions: keyboard shortcuts defined by extensions now work. Rambox's own shortcuts take priority when they clash.
• Extensions: password managers can fill a site's sign-in prompt (HTTP authentication).
• Extensions: screen-recording extensions can record a tab, or share a screen, a window or a Rambox app.
• Extensions now use the app's language.
• Proton Pass, MultiPassword, Mailtrack for Gmail, Wordtune, Zoom, Monica, LanguageTool and Awesome Screen Recorder are now available in the extensions catalog.

Improvements

• Upgraded Electron to v45.2.1 (Chromium 156.0.8078.75).
• The extensions catalog now offers the latest version of every extension, and extensions get the browser features they expect from Chrome.
• A version that is no longer supported now shows the end-of-support screen with the download link when you sign in, instead of an error.
• Dismissing an app's alert (for example, a Google Calendar reminder) now clears the notifications that came with it and updates the app's badge.
• Custom apps without a logo show their first letter on a colored background instead of a "?".
• The app's own tab in the temporary tabs bar shows its name and logo.
• When a link can open in one of your apps, custom apps are offered too, and "Don't ask" is respected when there is only one choice.
• Unified Search: WhatsApp message search works again, and opening a result goes to the chat inside the same app.
• The small status icons on app icons in the sidebar (muted, disabled, hibernated, playing sound, pinned...) are easier to read in light and dark themes.
• You can drag apps and workspaces into and out of the sidebar's "…" panels.
• Screen sharing: only one picker opens at a time, and it shows which app is asking.
• When saving Settings fails, Rambox tells you and keeps the panel open.
• A photo or name changed in the console now shows up in the app.
• Remote Control: the access token is stored encrypted, and Settings > Remote Control shows recent activity.
• Custom apps: icon search also tries sites that only use http://.
• Console: invoices show what was billed and what is still owed, not only what was paid.
• Console: custom branding lets you crop the organization logo, instead of asking for a ready-made 128x128 PNG.
• Console: the light/dark theme choice is remembered.
• Console: the organization owner can join a team or sub-team to get its workspaces, and keeps their own permissions.
• Console: Support keeps the requests of your personal account and your organization accounts apart, and changing your email keeps your requests.
• Console: changing an app's URL, injected code, proxy or user agent in a team workspace now requires Full access to Apps.
• Sign-up: if a name is rejected, the form says which field and why.
• Support: if an email attachment can't be accepted, you get a reply saying which file and why.

• Sign-in: Fixed a tab opened before an update failing to load pages.

Known bugs

• Windows: installing a new version manually over an existing one unpins Rambox from the taskbar. Automatic updates are not affected.
• Linux (Snap): signing in from the browser may not return to the app if another Rambox registered the rambox:// link before. Workaround: xdg-mime default rambox_rambox.desktop x-scheme-handler/rambox.
