- Support for custom languages: now you can apply a new custom language to the interface. The translation cloud platform has also been improved to allow users to upload user contributions in any language, including uncommon or fancy languages, local variations, and dialects. Switching from one language to another is now instantaneous and can take place directly from the app (it is no longer necessary to exchange location files).
- Quick Open 2.0: web pages open instantly and with improved support for multiple types of content such as pages containing right-to-left text, tables, nested lists, hidden sections, etc. (you can try a random Wikipedia page to get an idea). A crowdfunding contest will soon be announced to allow more types of content to be supported.
- New design for Android: profile sections, notifications, and sounds and general settings have been optimized.
Improved content sharing section: you can enjoy high-quality previews, more file, and link details, faster upload speed and even new design here. - New settings for Android: new counter entries have been implemented in the badge that already existed in the iOS version.
