Added

  • PC Receiver Daemon: Multi-threaded Python server on port 8765 with one-time 6-digit PIN and token authentication.
  • Android Receiver Daemon: Lightweight embedded server on port 8766 with explicit Wi-Fi process socket lock (ConnectivityManager.bindProcessToNetwork) and haptic chime on arrival.
  • Selective & Batch Transfer: 1-click note drop button in the note editor and bulk drop in multi-selection mode.
• Windows Desktop Media Vault Parity:
  • HTML5 Canvas Cropper: Interactive modal supporting Free, 1:1, 4:3, and 16:9 framing plus 90° clockwise rotation.
  • Quality Toggle [HD / STD]: Switch between ultra-lightweight WebP (~120 KB, 1280px downscale) and uncompressed raw HD captures.
  • Image Thumbnail Bar & Full Preview: Interactive preview modal with "Save to Disk", "Crop & Rotate", and "Remove Attachment" actions.
• Flagship Power Utilities:
  • Windows Global Hotkey (Ctrl + Alt + N): Win32 native RegisterHotKey message pump loop to launch instant scratchpad anywhere in the OS without third-party keyboard hooks.
  • Android Quick Settings Tile: System tile for 1-tap note capture from the Android notification shade.
  • Smart Web & Text Clipper: System Intent.ACTION_SEND hook for clipping shared articles, web links with OpenGraph title resolution, and pictures directly into AANO.

  • Smart To-Do Auto-Sorting: Smooth 250ms visual transition moving completed tasks beneath active checklist items.

Changed & Improved

• FixMySlop Code Polish (Grade A 95+):
  • Typed exception handling across all Python and Kotlin modules (FileNotFoundError, JSONDecodeError, URLError, BadZipFile), replacing broad and silent try-catches with structured logging.
  • Memory-safe DOM updates via modern replaceChildren() across all Windows UI components.
  • Accessible semantic <button type="button"> navigation elements in place of pseudo-links.
