Version 10.99.46 28/3/2022

🆕 Our brand new UI for 2022

The team at Wavebox HQ have been busy working on a brand new UI for Wavebox which is slicker and smoother so you can work faster and be more productive than ever when working on the web. The results include a mix of awesome design and usability improvements and time-saving new features. Here's a run-down of what's new!

• A brand new UI, which includes a unified tab strip & title bar, floating webviews with subtle rounded corners and shadows to make everything you're working on just pop
• Rebuilt from the ground up, a new drag & drop experience that among other things lets you drag tabs from toolbar straight into the webdock
• A brand new webdock rebuilt from the ground up...
  • The webdock now has two modes, the list webdock (just your icons) and the explorer webdock showing all your groups, apps and tabs on the left.
  • Seamlessly toggle between the list webdock and explorer webdock anytime by using the button in the toolbar.
  • Got lots of tabs to organize? No problem, easily create folders in the explorer webdock to keep all your stuff exactly where you need it.
  • You're no longer bound by the regular, compact & tiny webdock sizes, just use the drag bar for as much (or as little) webdock as you like.
  • Wish you could create a new group without an app? Just hit the new group button and start adding tabs.
• Need the action buttons in the title bar, or prefer the extra space? You can now choose which icons you want and which you don't.
• Always hitting compose, or creating new documents? Just hover over your favorite apps and check out the fast actions (try it on Google Drive, or Gmail)!
• Quickly get to what's new just by hovering over your apps. We've added your unreads, notifications and more into the popovers to make them more useful.
• Customize your groups and apps directly from the right-click menus without ever needing to touch settings (try clicking on the name or color).
• Check out the new tab navigator. Cool little graphs and lists of what you've got running!
• Add Wavebox Smart Notes as an app.
• The dev team & ux team tell us that there are nearly a million other tweaks but we don't quite believe them. Or maybe we do. You decide!

And there's more...

• Update to Chromium 99.0.4844.84
• Update a bunch of other dependencies
• Some big performance improvements from the new UI update, especially for machines that have integrated graphics
• Add keyboard shortcuts for split/unsplit (this can be configured under settings)
• Opening wavebox://downloads in the main window could cause it to reload on startup, fix this
• Fix a crash in the main window
• Fix opening app settings not always scrolling the settings window to the correct location
• When opening external links, Wavebox wouldn't offer the last cookie container when it was the default. Fix this
• Tab counts would not show on groups with a single app, fix this
• Capture a case where a partial update could cause the app to stop launching

Version 10.99.14 7/3/2022

• In some configurations, Slack & Gmail could present duplicate notifications. Fix this.
• When using split-screen, it was not possible to change between screen positions, without exiting split screen. Fix this.
• Opening a tab in a new cookie container would result in it reverting back to the original container. Fix this.
• When an app fell asleep, clicking on the app in the webdock/toolbars wouldn't wake it up. We like it when things fall asleep because it saves resources, but we also like it when they wake up when they're needed. So we added some new coffee brewing code that wakes it up ☕
