Changelog

0.5.0

!!!IMPORTANT!!! Hopefully fixes Offline Mode/Low Data mode - previously a queue of downloads initiated on WiFi would continue downloading even after disconnected from WiFi, eating users' cellular data.

NOTE: I haven't been able to thoroughly test this yet, so please use the download functions with caution until we can confirm network modes are effectively gated.

Fixed

  • Data modes now (hopefully) hold everywhere. Downloads and cover fetches never run on
    metered data (cellular, or a phone-hotspot Wi-Fi).
  • The network check reads the connection the phone is actually using, through
    the SDK's new ConnectivityManager hooks (light-sdk #163). A Wi-Fi that had
    lost internet used to still count as Wi-Fi while every byte rode cellular.
  • The whole UI now sizes itself from the panel's real width, the way the
    phone's own tools do. Changing Android's "smallest width" (density) setting
    used to shrink every control and font while other apps stayed put; now Amp
    renders the same pixels at any setting, and scales properly on any future
    panel.

Changed

  • Low Data is now the default for new installs. It was Wi-Fi Only — which,
    now that Wi-Fi Only really means no network, would have left a first
    sign-in over cellular with nothing synced and no visible reason.
