🗄️ Permanent Link Vault

  • Automatic link & password harvesting: Cloud links (Mega, Google Drive, Pixeldrain, etc.) and archive passwords are now saved into a permanent vault whenever you queue or download artists — no extra steps needed.
  • Link health checker & cleaner: Check which vaulted links are still alive and remove dead ones with a single click.
  • Harvest without downloading: A new "Harvest Artist" option pulls all cloud links and passwords from a creator's history into the vault without saving any media files.
  • One-click password sync: Send harvested passwords straight into the Decompressor so your archives are ready to extract immediately.

⏰ Task Scheduler & Automation Hub

  • Automated download schedules: Set up recurring jobs to check your Watchlist for new posts or back up specific creators on a timer.
  • Night Owl off-peak window: Configure a time window for downloads to run automatically during your preferred off-peak hours.
  • Sleep prevention & auto-retry: Keeps Windows awake while downloading and automatically retries any files that failed or hit a rate limit.
  • Lock your speed settings: Protect your chosen thread count and delay so scheduled tasks never override them.

💾 Storage Pools & Session Recovery

  • Multi-drive overflow protection: When your primary drive runs low, downloads automatically continue onto a secondary drive or folder — no crashes, no lost files.
  • Resume interrupted downloads: If the app closes or is cancelled mid-download, a recovery prompt lets you pick up exactly where you left off.
  • 1-click browser cookie import: Import your authenticated session directly from your installed browser — no developer tools required.

🗂️ Smarter Folders & Missing File Fixes

  • Post collision fixed: Posts with identical titles or generic filenames (like 1.png, 4.png) are now saved into their own isolated folders so nothing gets overwritten or merged.
  • Pawchive preview images fixed: Missing image attachments that returned 404 errors are now automatically rerouted and downloaded from working mirrors.

🔧 Bunkr Support Overhaul

  • Bunkr downloads work again: Full rewrite to support the current Bunkr infrastructure. All modern domains (bunkr.cr, bunkr.si, balbums.st, etc.) are now recognised and handled correctly.
  • Faster album resolution: Albums now resolve in parallel instead of one file at a time.
  • Accurate file sizes: The progress bar now shows the correct total size from the very start of a download.

✨ Fluid Smooth Scrolling

  • Physics-based scrolling everywhere: Smooth kinetic momentum scrolling is now active across every view, list, queue, and modal in the app.

🛠️ Fixes & Settings

  • Garbled names fixed: Encoding issues that caused creator names and filenames to appear as mojibake (e.g. é instead of é) are now automatically corrected.
  • Windows path crashes fixed: Illegal characters and trailing dots or spaces in filenames are cleaned up automatically so saves no longer fail silently.
  • Desktop completion report (opt-in): Enable "Generate completion report on Desktop" in Settings → Storage & File Processing to save an HTML + TXT summary of each session to your Desktop.
