Folio 0.6.7

Real art behind Home, Folio in Korean, and the fixes supporters have been testing since beta 2.

What's new

Taken from CHANGELOG.md, which is what the app shows under Settings › What's New.

  • Folio's backgrounds are real art: two woodblock prints by Utagawa Hiroshige ship with Folio, and Settings › Wallpaper & Appearance is one grid of everything you can put behind Home: your photo, the art Folio ships, and the art you install. Every one names its artist and its license. The drawn dunes are gone.
  • White text reads on a pale wallpaper: Home darkens a little at the top and bottom, the way iPhone does, so the clock, app names and page dots stay legible. Settings › Wallpaper & Appearance › Text on Home turns it off.
  • Folio speaks Korean: the whole interface, from a community translation by qlife1146. It follows your phone's language, or pick it in Settings › General › Language.
  • Folio has its own color: buttons, switches and links use Folio Teal, the teal of the app icon. Classic Blue is still in Settings › Wallpaper & Appearance › Accent.
  • For supporters: Flipbook turns Home pages in 3D as you swipe (everyone gets it in 0.6.8), Folio Beta updates Folio from the Market, a lasting Supporter badge, and a Supporters page beside Credits.
  • Panes fit the screen: the Market and Settings show two panes on a Fold's inner screen, the way iPad does.
  • Made with AI, said plainly: a package whose author says AI helped make it carries an AI-assisted tag.
  • Fixes: no more smeared pages with Android's wallpaper (#12, #35), menus open on their row and close on a tap outside (#117), the Settings search field keeps the keyboard, double tap on an empty spot works again (#61), the dock steps aside for Today View (#25), icons follow a theme that changes them (#19), apps can't add widgets to Home without Android's approval, and the Dynamic Island lets go of a card it was told to drop. The rest are in the changelog.

Tested

  • The unit suite on main before the release commit: 589 app tests and 165 market tests, no failures, and lint with no errors. CI green on every pull request, including the release commit.
  • Beta 3, the same app code, has been with supporters since 26 Sep. The stable adds Flipbook's Market package and roadmap text to it.
  • On a Galaxy Z Fold8 with a side-by-side test build: the island's fixes.
  • Two review passes before the release: every change since beta 2, and updating from 0.6.6, beta 2 and beta 3.

Known not to work yet

  • Korean is a beta translation. No native speaker has reviewed it yet. Corrections are welcome through the Translation issue form.
  • Flipbook is for supporters until 0.6.8, and wallpapers from the Market need the Market, which everyone gets in 0.7.0.

Signed with the same key as every Folio release, so it installs over 0.6.6 and both betas. It asks for no permission 0.6.6 didn't, and PERMISSIONS.md explains every one.
