Release Notes v0.10.4-beta

Major Improvements

Library & Music Filtering

• Searchable multi-select for genres, tags, ratings, and years.
• Music library gained a dedicated sort dialog (Album Artist, Community Rating, Play Count) plus "Play All" / "Shuffle All" that respects active filters.
• Filter and sort selections are saved per library and restored across restarts.
• Standardised dialog layouts with a consistent action footer, height constraints for smaller screens, active filter badges, and improved keyboard handling in search fields.
• Toggling favourite or played status now updates filtered lists immediately.

Favorites & Watchlist

• New Favourites and Watchlist category screens with full-screen, sortable grids (Name, IMDb Rating, Date Added, Release Date).
• Favourite music playlists are now supported and included in the Favourites view.
• Favourite status changes reflect immediately across library, favourites, and watchlist views.

• Added a scroll-to-top button on the home list.
• Refactored hero carousel with a unified layout and a capped maximum height.

Music Player

• Added a real-time playback stats view (codec, bitrate, buffer health, decoder type).

Video Player

Full Changelog: v0.10.3-beta...v0.10.4-beta

Release Notes v0.10.3-beta

Major Improvements

Downloads

• Optimised the download pipeline: larger transfer buffers and progress bookkeeping moved off the network path.
• Active download cards now show live download speed, for both Jellyfin and Audiobookshelf downloads.
• Redesigned active download cards: pause/cancel actions sit beside the title, with a cleaner status and size line under the progress bar.
• Rich download notifications: media title with poster or cover art, contextual details (series and episode, album, author, podcast), and progress shown as percent and size. Expanding a movie or episode notification shows its backdrop.
• Pause and cancel directly from the notification.
• Notifications are grouped: active downloads collapse under one summary, finished downloads under another. Completed and failed downloads now post a notification.
• Tapping any download notification opens the Downloads screen.
• Fixed notification progress bars breaking on files larger than 2 GB.
• Fixed cancelling a download, occasionally leaving a stalled phantom entry in the Downloads screen.

Navigation Drawer

• Optional navigation drawer (Material 3 expressive wide rail) as an alternative to the bottom bar, with an account switcher and optional library shortcuts.
• Improved navigation stability and state management when switching destinations.
• Standardised screen padding and display cutout handling across screens.

Full Changelog: nightly...v0.10.3-beta

Release Notes v0.10.2-beta

Critical Fixes

• Fixed a crash on the Audiobookshelf podcast library screen caused by large episode lists exceeding SQLite's CursorWindow. Episodes now use a dedicated table (DB v55).
• Fixed storage losing its primary volume on some devices (Xiaomi / Android 16). An internal-storage volume is synthesised when the system reports none.

Major Improvements

Update Security

• Downloaded update APKs are verified against a server-provided SHA-256 digest, and files that fail verification are deleted.
• Updates download to app-private storage, and stale or partial downloads are cleaned up beforehand.
• Downloaded APKs are re-validated on resume, so a deleted or modified file won't be installed.

Jellyseerr Discover Filters

• Filter sheet with release date, runtime, rating and vote-count thresholds, TV status, and TMDB keyword include/exclude.
• Watch-provider filtering with region detection.
• Sorting by popularity, release or air date, rating, and title.
• Filter and sort state persisted per user, server, and category (DB v56).
• Respects the server's Discover region and "hide available" settings. Filtering and sorting now also apply to Upcoming Movies and TV.

UI Standardisation

• Standardised shared UI components: snackbar, connection badge, switches, media cards, transport controls, and empty and loading states.

Music

• Playlists load via reactive Flows and update automatically on create and delete.

UI & Minor Updates

• Fixed inconsistent row heights and title alignment in Similar Items, Movie, and Box Set detail rows.
• Fixed pagination indicators being confined to a single grid cell instead of spanning the full width.
• Fixed a missing space in the "Narrated by" line on the Audiobookshelf item screen.
• Added a download icon to Jellyseerr request buttons.
• Updated the Settings screen to the current Material 3 adaptive layout APIs.
• Release builds fall back to the debug signing key when no key.properties is present.

Major Improvements

Real-Time Sync (new)

• Jellyfin — pre-resolved media change events for faster UI updates; library scans refresh only on completion

Smarter Server Connections

• LAN address is now genuinely preferred at home — streams stay local instead of routing through the internet
• Local addresses work on Ethernet and VPN (docks, Android boxes, Tailscale subnet routing) instead of forcing offline mode

• Connection indicator is consistent across the top bar and Settings, updates live, and turns red when the server is down — not just your internet

• Discover follows the server's Discover Sliders; request quotas with indicator, 4K and partial-request settings respected

Home Screen Rework

• Dynamic lazy-loaded sections that hydrate as you scroll, with shimmer placeholders
• Cache-first startup: sections render instantly from local cache, then refresh in the background

Audiobookshelf

• Dedicated library and series screens with "Browse" shortcuts on the Home tab
• Mark as Finished for books and individual podcast episodes
• Unheard-episode badges, incremental page loading, redesigned item header

Music

• Genre browsing with detail screen (Instant Mix, Shuffle, Radio)

• Fixed the Continue Listening row visibly scrolling on opening the Audiobookshelf Home tab
• Control Panel integrated into Settings, dual-pane on tablets
