πŸš€ Orion Store v1.1.1 Release Notes

Build 2025.17 β€’ The "Smart Sync" Hotfix

This update addresses a critical logic loop for apps with non-standard versioning (like Xtra) and polishes the media experience.

🧠 Feature Spotlight: Smart Version Identity

I solved the "Infinite Update Loop."

  • The Problem: Some apps (e.g., Xtra, Eros) use Dates (2026-01-07) on GitHub but standard numbers (2.18.0) inside the APK. Previously, Orion saw 2026 > 2 and thought an update was always available, even after you installed it.
  • The Solution: Orion now maintains its own internal registry (lastRemoteVersions). When you install an app via the store, we "remember" exactly which version variant you chose.
  • The Result: Update checks are now accurate 90% of the time, ignoring confusing internal APK version numbers in favor of the actual Store Release tag.
  • Default Stable Display: The App Detail page now explicitly shows the Stable version by default, even if a newer Beta/Pre-release exists. You can still access Betas via the version selector.

πŸ–ΌοΈ Visual Polish: Liquid Lightbox

The full-screen screenshot viewer has been re-tuned for native-feel responsiveness.

  • Swipe Navigation: You can now swipe left or right to browse screenshots naturally no more hunting for tiny arrow buttons.
  • Pinch to Zoom: Zooming is now fully supported and stable. Pinch to inspect details, and the image stays zoomed where you want it without snapping back.

πŸ”§ Under the Hood

  • State Persistence: Updated the database schema to persist lastRemoteVersions across app restarts.
  • Ref Logic: Implemented React Refs for gesture tracking to eliminate micro-stutters during heavy animations.

⚠️ Dev Note:
This is just a hotfix for v1.1.0. The next major update, v1.2.0, is currently in the works with a massive set of new features. Stay tuned!
