ThorNotes v0.4.3

• Reworked Settings page for aesthetics. Added ability to change theme color
• Added an optional log dump for troubleshooting. Its disabled by default, if enabled it records key events and save to a fixed location that takes at most 128KB
• Workarounds for a potential Thor firmware issue where machine freeze if try to screenshot immediately after granting permisson

ThorNotes v0.4.2

• Overhaul of dropdown menu, material UI for dropdown, separators between settings button and notebook pages, now can long press on notebook page title to delete / rename a page

• Added backup / restore feature, with backup compatibility in mind, data restore is almost transactional so generally should be safe even if restore process is interrupted mid way; updated README.md and in-app doc abt this

Next version TBD:

• Support custom theme color
• Overhaul of settings page, currently is a bit messy
• Shrink APK size, currently have full WordNet dictionary plus some ML Kit + Paddle OCR libs inside
• Make dictionary function visible, or remove it entirely

ThorNotes v0.4.1

• Refactored screen capture logic, on Thor firmware we need to reuse VirtualDisplay since rapidly creating and destroying them has chance to freeze machine. Additionally enforced timeout to avoid creating too much screenshot at once; allowed screenshot mechanism to detect a stuck screenshot attempt and fail it but it shouldn't be triggered too much
• Serialized some write / mutational methods for extra safety
• OCR feature uses sampled decode instead of full-size bitmap decode

ThorNotes v0.4

Main updates:

• Added Text button that allow user to write customized text; optimize it so that for Thor's bottom screen with large software keyboard textbox is still visible
• Made text blocks favoritable & pinnable similar to image blocks
• Added a welcome screen that shows not so obvious interactions to user

Note since signing key is applied for versions >=v0.4, if you are using ThorNote 0.3 before you need to uninstall earlier version first before installing v0.4. This is one time only, thanks for understanding~

ThorNotes v0.3

• OCR overhaul: Added multilingual OCR settings: Chinese+English, English, Chinese, Japanese, and all-language modes; added PaddleOCR support as a local native OCR backend, with ML Kit fallback when unavailable or failed; added respective Settings entries, including status, download/refresh, and uninstall controls.
• Added screenshot pin/star feature and related notebook UI refinements.
• Added top-bar time and battery indicators.
• Added OLED blackout mode: double-tap the time to turn the bottom screen black, then double-tap the black screen to restore.
• Added optional floating toggle button in Settings -> Display.
