WhatsApp Web Wrapper v0.1.2

This patch release fixes two regressions related to window state management on Linux Wayland sessions.


Bug Fixes & Improvements

  • Start in Background on Boot: The application no longer flashes on screen at login when "Start in Background on Boot" is enabled. The window is now created with the visible flag set to false at the OS level, preventing any compositor from briefly rendering it before it could be hidden.
  • Window Size Restoration: The saved window geometry (width, height, and maximized state) is now applied directly at window creation time via the Tauri WebviewWindowBuilder, instead of being set after the window was already presented to the compositor. This ensures the correct dimensions are respected consistently on KDE Plasma 6 Wayland and other compositors.
