🚀 AABrowser v2.2: Glassmorphic Aesthetics & Interactive Upgrades!
v2.2 is finally here, and it brings a gorgeous visual makeover, interactive drag-and-drop support, and custom integrations to appreciate our sponsors! This release represents polishing the app's look and feel while strengthening performance and security under the hood.
A big welcome and thank you to our new contributor @gregorixG for making desktop mode even better, and a massive thanks to everyone supporting the project!
🔥 Key Highlights
🎨 Immersive Frosted-Glass (Glassmorphism) UI
• Elegant Transparency: Enjoy a highly polished UI featuring smooth frosted-glass panels and stroke styling across the Start Page cards.
• Responsive Styling: Elements seamlessly blend with your selected wallpaper or system themes for a truly premium aesthetic.
💖 Interactive Sponsors & Playful Support
• GitHub Sponsors List: Introducing a tabbed, YouTube Super Chat style sponsors showcase right on your Start Page.
• Dynamic Color Tiers: Supports all 7 official Super Chat tiers—automatically color-coding sponsors (Blue, Cyan, Green, Yellow, Orange, Pink, Red) based on their USD contribution.
• Premium Matcha & Tea Upgrades: Check out developer thank-you notes customized by tier! (Upgrades standard green tea to premium Matcha or a bottomless pot of coffee!).
• Pien Mode (🥺): Want to hide the sponsors list? Turn on the setting (after a sad warning from our devs) and watch a randomly rotated 🥺 emoji spawn on your start page.
