v0.5.0-beta.2
Pre-release
Pre-release
Added
- Added SEO crawl/discovery artifacts for laupin.ca (
distribution/robots.txt,distribution/sitemap.xml) plus a naming evaluation memo that keeps the app name stable while positioning the page as "Hotspot Helper for Android".
Changed
- Renamed the app from "Hotspot Helper" to WhisperTether for a less-crowded branding/SEO position. A full clean rename: the laupin.ca distribution pages and site path (
/apps/hotspot-helper/→/apps/whispertether/, with recomputed JSON-LD CSP hashes), the Android package and app id (com.hotspothelper→ca.laupin.whispertether), all in-app visible strings and internal identifiers, the GitHub release-repo references (Laupin-ca/whispertether), the release/license scripts and runbook, and the release skill. The release asset is nowwhispertether-<version>.apk. Supersedes the earlier "keep the name" decision below. Out of scope by design: the on-disk DataStore filename and historical changelog entries. - Wired the laupin.ca "Buy a license" button to the live Lemon Squeezy hosted checkout (
laupin.lemonsqueezy.com), replacing the disabled "Checkout URL pending" placeholder. The link is a plain outbound<a>so the page stays static and the.htaccessCSP is unchanged; the storefront is still completing registration, so the link may not yet take payment. - Reworked the laupin.ca app page around an install-first conversion flow, beta-accurate sideload copy, clearer Android/Shizuku requirements, stronger SEO metadata/SoftwareApplication JSON-LD, and a non-broken checkout-pending state until the owner supplies the Lemon Squeezy URL.
- Updated the privacy page's example User-Agent from an old alpha build to the current beta build.
