v1.1.0 - New Features

Buddy v1.1 — History, Text Replacers & UI Polish
Buddy just got radically smarter, cleaner, and faster! This major update brings local interaction logs, instant-expansion shortcuts, and a robust set of quality-of-life UI upgrades.

✨ What's in this release

• History Dashboard: Never lose a generated response again. Look back over your complete generation history and copied AI results straight from the brand new navigation tab. Swipe to delete specific items or clear everything simultaneously.
• Lightning Fast Text Replacers: You can now create custom shortcuts that instantly expand to static text strings (e.g., typing /address to place your full address) — bypassing the AI API entirely for zero-millisecond responsiveness!
• In-App Updater: Buddy now silently scans the GitHub repository for new releases when opened. If it finds one, a bright "Update Available!" card will automatically populate your dashboard with a one-click download button fetching the latest .apk instantly.
• Banking App Quick-Toggle: A new informational card on the Dashboard clearly explains that banking apps block Accessibility Services. A one-tap "Turn Off" button takes you directly to the Accessibility Settings to disable Buddy before opening sensitive apps.
• Strict Preservation Prompts: Completely fixed frustrating instances of "script-jumping" (e.g., typing Hinglish in Latin letters and the AI converting the result into Devanagari characters). Buddy will now critically preserve your distinct typed writing structure during grammar fixes and text improvements.
• Smart API Key Connectors: Setting up is now incredibly effortless. We redesigned the "Keys" interface with explicit index numbers alongside sleek hyperlink buttons pointing directly to the hidden API key-generation sites for Google AI Studio and OpenAI.
• Cleaner Settings Terminology: Removed complex developer phrasing across the app and tightened the UI layout with significantly more user-friendly help text underneath.
