✨ New Features & Enhancements

  • Configurable Screenshot & Recents Privacy: Introduced a new global security feature to block screenshots, screen recordings, and content visibility in the "Recent Apps" switcher.
    • This can be enabled app-wide by setting security.block.screenshots=true in swv.properties. (#335)
    • When the Biometric Plugin is active and the global setting is off, this secure mode is dynamically enabled only during the authentication process, providing the best of both security and user convenience.

πŸ”§ Architectural Enhancements

  • Decoupled Rating Plugin: The RatingPlugin has been made fully self-contained by removing its compile-time dependency on strings.xml. The project will now compile successfully even if the rating-specific strings are removed, making the plugin truly optional.
  • Hardened Biometric & AdMob Plugins: Added null-safe checks to the BiometricPlugin and AdMobPlugin. This prevents the app from crashing at runtime if a user has customized their layouts and removed the views these plugins depend on (e.g., security_overlay or msw_ad_container). Instead of crashing, the plugins will now log an error and gracefully disable the dependent feature.
  • Modularized Security Flag Control: The logic for managing the window's FLAG_SECURE has been centralized in MainActivity. This allows core app settings and individual plugins to control the security state without conflicts, making the architecture more robust and extensible.

🐞 Bug Fixes & Stability Improvements

  • Fixed: Invisible Dialog Buttons in Light Theme: Resolved a critical theme issue where the "Yes" / "No" buttons in the exit confirmation dialog were invisible (white text on a white background) when the app was in light mode. Dialog buttons now correctly use the app's accent color and are clearly visible in both light and dark themes.
