v1.2.6 — Post-Diet Cravings Cured: Now Lean, Mean & Gesture-Clean 🏃♀️💨
Turns out after her recent diet, ROSE got midnight cravings and started secretly snacking on storage space—hoarding caches and temporary files like candy wrappers under the bed. 🍫👀
With v1.2.6, we staged an intervention, fixed her appetite, and taught her some slick new finger gestures.
🥗 What's Cooking in v1.2.6:
-
🥑 Strict Cache Diet (Appetite Cured!):
ROSE will no longer hoard massive thumbnail caches, leftover share buffers, or temporary archives. Her metabolism is back to peak performance, keeping your device's storage trim and tidy. -
👉 Swipe Right for Recent Files:
No more tapping around—just swipe right from the Home screen to instantly slide into your Recent Files tab. Flick back to return just as effortlessly. -
🧼 Clean As You Go:
Temporary file handlers and share caches are now diligently swept away the moment you're done with them.

v1.2.5
🌹 What's Changed
🥗 ROSE Went on a Diet
ROSE had a little fitness journey. 😭
Just kidding — we separated the libraries for different architectures, which cut the app's weight by almost half while keeping things working as they should.
Basically, ROSE is now lighter, leaner, and carrying less baggage. 💀
✨ New & Improved
- 📄 TXT & Markdown Support — ROSE can now properly read and edit
.txtand.mdfiles. - 💥 Crash Fixes — Resolved several critical crashes for a more stable experience.
- 🔎 Better Search — Improved search with separate sections/categories to make finding things easier.

⚡ TL;DR
Smaller. Faster. More stable. More capable.
ROSE lost some weight, learned how to handle Markdown, got better at finding things, and stopped crashing as much.
Not bad for a version bump. 🌹
