What's New: v1.3.0 New in Card View: - All open browser windows now appear as collapsible sections — current window expanded, others collapsed by default - Click any tab in another window to jump directly to it - Name your windows by hovering and clicking the pencil icon — names are saved and persist across sessions - Filter box moved to the header bar with a one-click clear button Smarter Export & Import: - Export now offers three modes: Current View (filtered/sorted tabs), Window Only (current window), or Full Backup (all tabs across all windows) - Importing a Full Backup recreates each window — tabs already open are skipped so nothing gets duplicated; collections are merged by name instead of overwritten Bug Fixes: - Collections in Card View now render correctly with open tabs shown as full cards and closed saved tabs shown with their favicon - Collection order in Card View now matches the drag-sorted order from the sidebar - Sidebar no longer auto-closes when Card View is the active tab v1.2.0 - Card View: New full-screen card view of all open tabs, opened via the grid icon in the sidebar header. Cards display tab favicon/preview screenshot, title, last accessed date, notes indicator, close button, and audio waveform for playing tabs. Sections for pinned tabs, regular tabs, domain groups (when enabled), and collections. 3-state toggle: first click opens, second click focuses existing window, third click closes. Escape key closes the view. Theme syncs with sidebar. Bug Fixes: - Drag between collections: Tabs (both open and saved/closed) can now be dragged from one collection to another. Previously the drop was silently ignored for any tab already in a collection. - Card view icon position: Moved the card view icon one position to the left in the header (now: card view → theme → settings). v1.1.5 Tab Notes: Right-click any tab → "Notes" to add per-tab user notes via a text dialog. Notes are stored by URL hash (persist even if tab is closed and reopened), displayed below the tab title with an amber sticky note icon, and included inline in export/import data. Import merges notes (imported values win on conflict). Backward compatible. v1.1.4 Fix: Merged multi-select actions menu into split button group to prevent pushing submenu off screen. v1.1.3 - Click Handling: Fixed bug where clicking a tab or checkbox required two clicks instead of one. Tab activation and multi-select checkboxes now respond immediately to single clicks. - Context Menu Submenus: Fixed dropdown submenu items (Move To, Add to Collection) not responding to clicks reliably. v1.1.2 - Multi-select automatically moves tabs to newly created collection - Bug fixes
