π Developers
v0.9
November 2025
π Platform-Level Enhancements
- Android Desktop (Dex-like) Mode: Introduced a dedicated desktop-grade execution layer built on custom virtual displays, enabling per-app window isolation, independent lifecycle management, and desktop-style input routing.
- Performance Profiles: Implemented selectable rendering pipelines (Fast / Balanced / High-Quality) to dynamically adjust encoding, resolution scaling, and frame pacing.
- Advanced Virtual Display Stack: Expanded input injection, window control, and surface management using low-latency ADB streams.
π Stability & Refinements
- Reduced UI thread contention and optimized Flutter render scheduling.
- Improved Wi-Fi ADB handshake reliability under unstable network conditions.
- Multiple internal crash fixes and memory-safety improvements.
v0.8
November 2025
β¨ Core Architecture Expansion
- Dual-Mode Architecture: Formal separation between pure ADB control mode and App-assisted synchronization mode for scalable feature growth.
- System Utilities Suite: Added calls, SMS, media session control, file management, and real-time notification mirroring.
- Multi-Device Stability: Reworked device registry and connection lifecycle handling to support concurrent devices with fewer race conditions.
