What's Changed

Motrix Next 3.9.7 promotes the complete beta series to stable with Aria2 Next 2.5.5, runtime BitTorrent connection controls, safer file deletion, dynamic Material Design 3 theming, and substantial platform and architecture refinements.

✨ New Features

  • BitTorrent connection controls — Configure listen and external endpoints, apply supported changes without restarting the engine, and recover port conflicts automatically
  • File deletion policy — Move downloaded files to the system trash or delete them permanently
  • Dynamic color system — Use preset or custom seed colors with harmonized semantic roles across light and dark themes
  • Peer protection and diagnostics — Manage BT peer blocklists, log levels, log retention, and diagnostic exports
  • Task experience — Resume eligible paused tasks, show sidebar task counts, and control the task-list watermark

🛠 Improvements

  • Updated all six bundled engine binaries to Aria2 Next 2.5.5
  • Reorganized BitTorrent, DHT, peer discovery, and sharing settings by protocol ownership
  • Added transactional preference saves with engine and configuration rollback on failure
  • Made Rust the sole task-lifecycle poller and consolidated shared configuration, proxy, and task utilities
  • Lazy-loaded locale messages and reduced the main frontend bundle
  • Added a custom macOS DMG experience, macOS ad-hoc signing, and Linux desktop integration
  • Rebuilt and polished the project website
  • Improved diagnostic guidance, default logging, localization, and updater signature documentation

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • Improved magnet metadata reliability and paused-task resume behavior
  • Fixed locale loading during language changes
  • Removed intrusive missing-file card borders while preserving the status indicator
