• ✨ New Features • The bottom 4-tab bar can now stay visible on other pages (on by default): pages opened from the drawer, categories or Recent keep the bottom navigation so tabs are always reachable; it slides away when you enter immersive video playback or image viewing, and returns when the controls are shown (can be turned off in Settings → General & Behavior → Navigation bar) • Customizable date & time format (issue #38): pick DD/MM/YYYY, MM/DD/YYYY or YYYY-MM-DD, and 12- or 24-hour time; the choice applies across the whole app • "Show the three-dot action button" is easier to set up now: turning the switch on pops up the mode picker (Always / Single pane only / Dual pane only) and closes itself once chosen • The file / folder "Properties" dialog now shows a "Creation Time" row (like MiXplorer): sourced from MediaStore DATE_ADDED, a different clock from "Modified" so they differ for most files; the category-page properties dialog now shows this row too • Multi-task clipboard (issue #36): copy / cut now accumulate into separate tasks, divided by dividers in the panel, each pastable and deletable on its own; remote (FTP / SMB / WebDAV) tasks are included too, up to 20 kept • The file "Properties" dialog now has a "Calculate Hash" button: MD5 / SHA-256 are computed on demand (streaming, not at open) for local files, using little memory even for large files • The category-page properties dialog now shows "N subfolder(s) / M file(s)" for folders (matching the Browse page) and their total size
• 🎨 UI & Interaction
• Protocol cards in the Add Remote wizard are now single-row cards (icon + title + description + arrow), stacked vertically with a bigger tap area and a consistent look • In category pages, the multi-select action bar now covers and hides the bottom navigation bar instead of stacking above it • The multi-select action bar of category pages (Video, Audio, Image, Document, Downloads, Screenshots, Archives, APK) now shares the same button widget as the Browse and Recent pages • With "Hide action bar text labels" on, those category pages now also hide the text and show icons only, matching the Browse and Recent pages • The "More" overflow (Share, Details, Favorite, etc.) also shows icon only when labels are hidden • Clipboard panel bottom is now "Clear (narrow) + Paste All (right)"; Paste All respects each task's keep-after-paste choice; the top title was removed for a more compact panel • In Settings, "Date & Time Format" and "Hide time and date in list" are merged into a single "Date & Time Display" item that opens a combined sheet
• 🐛 Bug Fixes
• Fixed the date / time format picker not being selectable: the selection was reset on every rebuild and always fell back to the default • Fixed the "Date & Time Format" and "Show three-dot action button" switches not being tappable — only tapping the whole row worked • Fixed remote connections (SMB etc.) becoming unreachable after switching pages until the app was restarted: the reconnect check now recognizes socket-timeout errors and rebuilds the connection automatically • Fixed remote file lists not following the "Date & Time Format" setting • Fixed "Hide action bar text labels" having no effect on category pages (except Recent) • Fixed the 4 newly added alternative icons (Blue-White / Gradient-Blue / Blue-Gold / Sunset) not taking effect when selected in Settings
• 🛠️ Maintenance
• Extracted the action bar button into a shared ActionBarButton widget so the Browse and Category pages use one source of truth for label-hiding, color and sizing • In the clipboard panel each task has its own "Clear" and "Keep after paste" toggle; after pasting a task is cleared by default • Protocol options in the Add Remote wizard now reuse one shared card widget, so future changes are made in a single place
