What's new

This release adds normal browser-style tab cycling and includes the latest workspace, downloads, and privacy fixes.

Changes

Tab switching shortcuts

  • Added Ctrl+Tab to move to the next tab.
  • Added Ctrl+Shift+Tab to move to the previous tab.
  • The shortcut works when the page is focused, when the chrome UI is focused, and through the native WebView2 shortcut path.
  • Tab cycling follows the active workspace tab order, so it stays consistent with the sidebar.

Workspace improvements

  • Added a compact sidebar workspace button so workspaces are still reachable when the sidebar is collapsed.
  • Added a workspace switcher modal with workspace names, avatars, tab counts, and active workspace state.
  • Right-clicking a workspace in the switcher now opens actions for editing or deleting it.

Downloads popover cleanup

  • Redesigned the downloads popover to be smaller and cleaner.
  • Reduced extra color and visual noise.
  • Kept core actions available, including open file, show in folder, pause, resume, cancel, and remove.

Privacy and browser detection fix

  • Fixed strict permission API stubs so feature detectors can still see the real native browser surface.
  • This avoids sites reading blocked APIs as fake JavaScript functions and incorrectly thinking Ventus is spoofing its Chromium version.
  • Strict permission blocking behavior is still kept.

Version and installer

  • Updated Ventus release surfaces to 1.0.29.
  • Rebuilt the Windows release binary.
  • Rebuilt the Windows installer.
