|
||||
### Core & Under-the-Hood
|
||||
* **Type-Safe Navigation:** The settings infrastructure has been rewritten using modern Jetpack Compose Navigation for enhanced stability.
|
||||
* **Build & Dependency Updates:** Major updates to dependencies and build scripts improve performance and maintainability.
|
||||
* **New Translations:** Translations have been updated from Crowdin.
|
||||
* **Nightly Builds:** A formal nightly build system is now in place for easier access to development versions.
|
||||
* **Crash & Bug Fixes:** Implemented numerous fixes for various OEM skins (Lenovo, Motorola), custom ROMs, and older Android versions.
|
||||
|
||||
### Regressions & Known Issues
|
||||
* **Icon Badges:** Icon badges for work profile apps are temporarily non-functional due to core changes in the A15 rebase. This is a high-priority item for a future update.
|
||||
* **'Customize Icon' State:** The bottom sheet for customizing an icon may not update its state immediately. Restarting the launcher will apply the change.
|
||||
* **App Drawer folders:** As of now, you can't edit app drawer folders from the app drawer. Please visit the settings screen to change the contents of each folder.
