New Features
- Your own icon on a custom memory card. Settings › Library › Custom Memory Cards › (a card) ›
Change Icon now offers three kinds of icon:- From Your Device: any PNG, JPG, WEBP, BMP, HEIC or GIF. An animated GIF plays while the
cursor is on the card. - From the Applied Theme: the current theme's icons, each with a preview. A picked one is
copied to the card, so it stays when you change themes. - Built-in: the existing icon set. Picking one removes your own image.
- From Your Device: any PNG, JPG, WEBP, BMP, HEIC or GIF. An animated GIF plays while the
- Select opens the category menu. On the XMB bar, Select now opens the same menu as
long-pressing a category icon, so the controller can reach it. Everywhere else Select still
changes the sort order.
Improvements
-
Custom memory cards for apps. You can now make a card in Network, App Store or any of your own
app categories, not just in games. Settings › Library › Custom Memory Cards lists every category
that can hold a card and marks each one "Game card" or "App card", and an app card counts and
describes its contents as apps. -
New Custom Card, straight from the bar. Long-press a category icon (or press Options or
Select on it) and pick New Custom Card to make one right in that column, without first finding
an item to add. -
Everything works with a controller. These used to be touch-only and now take the D-pad and A
like the rest of the launcher:- the "Couldn't launch" sheet, including Change Emulator, Change per-system default and
Copy diagnostics; - Try again and Open Settings when an online search fails, now also in Options;
- the Discord sign-in screen's Try again and Copy code (Full only);
- the default music and video player pickers, which also open on the player you already use;
- choosing a column for a new custom card, and the card's icon, now its own settings page;
- Add by ID for PC games, now a settings page with Game ID, Game name, Source, Test Launch and
Add Game.
- the "Couldn't launch" sheet, including Change Emulator, Change per-system default and
-
Rename a saved theme by touch. Long-press a theme in Themes › My Themes to open its menu.
-
The clock follows your phone. The status bar uses your Android 12- or 24-hour setting and your
region's date order. -
Clearer words throughout. Settings now say what they actually do and point to screens that
exist:- Re-Scan All (Mark Missing) keeps games and their history instead of claiming to remove them;
- messages name Settings › Achievements › … and Library Manager instead of screens that were
renamed; - Reset Sound to Defaults describes exactly what it resets;
- Thermal Throttle Awareness says it freezes the background;
- the Logs row says it opens or shares your logs;
- the PDF manual viewer shows ◀ ▶ to turn pages.
-
Smarter Launch With. It only appears when another launcher can really open the game, and it
names the launcher the game will actually start in. -
Scan ROM Roots is back in Library Manager. After setting up ES-DE folders and copying games in,
scan them from the ROM Roots list.
Bug Fixes
-
The GameBoot light sweep is back with a still wallpaper. It followed a motion setting that is
hidden while a still image is your wallpaper, so it could switch off with no way back. It now
turns off only for battery saver, a hot device, or Android's Remove animations. -
Apps on a custom card show their own icon cleanly. The dark square behind an app's icon is
gone; it only appears for an app with no icon, behind its letter. -
SD-card games no longer go "Missing" after a reboot. If a card or folder is still waking up
when the launcher scans, nothing is marked missing, and a manual scan tells you a folder couldn't
be read. -
Music, video and photo libraries survive a slow folder. A folder that can't be read for a
moment no longer empties your library or resets video resume points. -
The music player skips a broken track cleanly. Pause and Stop keep working afterwards, and
nothing keeps playing behind the menu. -
Steam achievements stay earned when Steam has a bad moment. An error from Steam no longer
flips your coins to unearned. -
RetroAchievements unlocks stay earned even when the unlock date comes back in an unexpected
format. -
Games with no achievements stop being re-checked every time you open them.
-
Renamed games keep their name in the Shiba Coins hub (All Tracked, Recent, Rarest).
-
Playlist counts match what plays. Removing a music or video folder takes its tracks out of
your playlists instead of leaving "20 tracks" that open empty. -
Detail pages always show what you opened. Quickly backing out and opening another app, video
or photo can no longer show the previous one. -
App Drawer keeps a highlighted tile after an uninstall, and a just-uninstalled app can't
reappear. -
Multi-disc playlists stay in their own folder. A
.m3uno longer pulls a same-named disc from
a different region's folder into its set. -
Favorites, artwork and play time set during a scan are kept. A long scan can no longer write
older values back over them. -
A folder named "game" is only read as PSP when it sits inside a PSP folder.
…/ps2/game/games
are PS2 again. -
FLAC and Opus files are found even when a storage provider reports them as an unknown file
type. -
Creating a category can't overwrite another one that happened to get the same internal name.
-
Discord voice volume and balance step through every level (Full only).
-
Wallpapers: a still
.webpimage is set as a normal wallpaper instead of being treated as a
motion wallpaper, and Preview Wallpaper only appears when there is one to preview. -
Lock screen: Reset only reports success when Android actually reset it.
-
Import All PC games reports how many failed instead of always calling it a success.
-
Sound import no longer leaves the progress indicator stuck if a file can't be read.
-
Remove prompts tell the truth for apps. Removing an app, or the Android card, says the apps stay
installed rather than talking about ROM files and scans. -
The setup wizard keeps Auto-fit however you leave its last page, and its first page no longer
shows a Skip that did the same as Get Started. -
Turning on the Goldberg installer from Library Manager now shows the same "back up your saves
first" warning as Achievements settings. -
Reset Emulator Configuration can be reached again under Emulators › Installed.
-
Reset to Scraped Default in Artwork Studio only appears for artwork the scraper fetched; use
Restore Previous to undo your own pick. -
Startup repairs finish properly. If a one-time library repair is interrupted, it now runs again
on the next launch, and merging duplicate Windows games keeps their play history and achievement
links.
Action Required
- Nothing to do. Your library, cards, themes, artwork and play time carry over as they are.
- Select has a new job on the XMB bar. If you used Select there to change the sort order, use
X / □ instead; Select still sorts inside lists. - Two settings changed shape. Display › Use My Exact Colour is gone because your font colour is
always shown exactly as picked; a very dark choice now gets a plain "may be hard to read" warning.
Display › Text Legibility is still saved with your themes but is marked "Not applied yet".
