0.5.0 [re-release]

What's New

• Added support for themed app icon (#2).

Note:

The home screen will display the adaptive or standard app icon instead of the themed app icon in the following scenarios:

• You haven't enabled themed app icons.
• Your launcher doesn't support themed app icons.
• Your mobile's Android version is less than 13.

On a side note, join Linkora's Discord Server for discussions and updates related to it.

Improvements

• Fixed an issue where links containing "?" were not saving as expected after fetching images and titles.

Removed

• Temporarily removed the "Bottom Sheet" feature for saving links due to inconsistent behavior in some cases. The default full-screen dialog will be used instead. This feature will be reintroduced in future releases.

This is a re-release of v0.5.0. The previous release of v0.5.0 had an issue with the release build, which has now been fixed. Thank you for using Linkora.

Note

This project is not in active development, which doesn't mean the project is dead or that I'm no longer going to work on it. It's just that I'm working on a few other things, so don't expect regular updates. I'll push minor updates now and then.

Additionally, this project will undergo a major rewrite, which will take at least a few weeks once I start it.

However, the current version of Linkora works for everyone and every purpose.

Thank you for using Linkora!
