What's new
- ・AI on YouTube: Page AI, Chat with Web, and summarize now work on the video's caption transcript; videos without captions are transcribed with Gemini (when a Gemini API key is configured), and transcripts are cached so each video is only transcribed once ・Userscripts can be exported/imported as a zip compatible with other userscript managers, and are now included in app-data backup and Google Drive sync ・AI chat sessions are stored in the app database, survive WebView storage clearing, and are included in backup/restore and Drive sync together with video transcripts; backup and restore dialogs show per-category sizes ・Web pages with their own read-aloud buttons now speak through the app's TTS engine (system, Edge-TTS, or OpenAI) via a Web Speech API polyfill ・Paragraph translations are cached for 7 days, so revisited pages translate instantly ・Bookmarks grid: long press shows the context menu and lets the finger slide onto an action, triggering it on lift (with "1 touch to url action" enabled)
- Bug Fixes ・Reader mode no longer blanks the page after following a link from a reader-mode page (#309) ・Site stylesheets are disabled while reader mode is showing, fixing collapsed layouts on some sites ・Settings rows and menu cells grow with larger system font sizes instead of clipping text (#623) ・Pages no longer freeze with unloaded content after returning to the app ・About screen no longer shows a stale build timestamp
