Here are some of the changes that have been made:
- Customizable Button in the Address Toolbar (VAB-9321)
We’ve introduced a new customizable button in the address toolbar (ad blocker shield button is there by default). This feature allows you to add a button for quick access to your favorite tools and functions, improving your browsing efficiency and personalization. You can long tap on the ad blocker shield button – Edit shortcut- and then choose one of the listed buttons, or you can head to Settings – Toolbar Shortcut (under Appearance) and then make the change. - Bookmark Folders Behavior (VAB-9201)
We’ve fixed an issue where bookmark folders wouldn’t stay on top when sorting and navigating in and out of folders. Your folders will now maintain their position, making bookmark management more intuitive. - Speed Dial Reordering Issue (VAB-9214)
Resolved an issue where speed dials couldn’t be reordered when manual sorting was selected. - Crash When Moving Notes (VAB-9355)
Fixed a crash that occurred when moving notes to the same folder. - Crash on Foldable Devices (VAB-8939)
Addressed a crash issue when tapping “New window” on some foldable devices. - Address Bar Display Issue in Full Screen Video (VAB-9245)
Fixed an issue where the address bar was displayed when turning on the video in full screen.
