What's new in v2.7.9:
• Seamless Background Audio & Track Transitions: Fixed intermittent Spotify pauses during the first minute of playback, across song boundaries, and when Firefox is minimized or running in the background.
• Smarter External Tab Auto-Pause & Auto-Resume: Eliminated the brief pause-then-resume hiccup after pausing a video in another browser tab on Windows, and ensured muted autoplay videos in social feeds never interrupt your music.
• Independent Background Audio & Persistent Memory: Background audio now keeps playing reliably even if Persistent Memory is turned off.
• Quick Mute & Timed Mute Controls: Mute All, Email-only, or Sites-only notifications indefinitely or on a preset timer (15m, 1h, 8h, 24h).
• Customizable Keyboard Shortcuts: Assign global shortcuts and per-app shortcuts (including custom sidebar sites) straight from FoxHub Settings.
• Live Audio Diagnostics Viewer: Added an optional live event log viewer & 1-click JSON export in Settings → Media & Sidebar for instant troubleshooting.

• Customizable & Toggleable Video Progress Loadbar: Added full customization for the bottom video scrubber bar on TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts (enabled by default). Toggle it on/off anytime, choose from 6 gradient/color presets (Sunset Glow, Theme Accent, Cyber Neon, Emerald, Minimal White, or your own Custom Color picker), and switch between Slim (2px), Normal (4px), and Bold (6px) bar thickness in Sidebar Settings.
• First-Install Settings Coachmark with Curved Arrow: Added a friendly onboarding notice with an animated curved SVG arrow pointing to the bottom-left Settings gear icon (shown at most twice on first install) highlighting Background Audio, Persistent Memory, Tab Auto-Pause, App Themes, and Video Loadbar controls.
• Fixed Mail Inbox Switching After Notifications: Fixed an issue where clicking the Mail icon or receiving an email notification while a media app was open could leave the media workspace covering the inbox. Clicking desktop email notifications now also switches straight to your Mail inbox.
• Full-Width Reddit Post & Comment Layout: Collapsed Reddit's 2-column .main-container grid track inside the sidebar/popup so posts, media, and comment trees expand across 100% of the available width with zero empty right-hand margin.

What's New in FoxHub v2.7.3:
• Fixed Background Audio Auto-Pause & Auto-Resume When Closed: Added an instant in-memory and storage trigger (pmTabAudioTrigger) with a hardware-level mute/pause gate in the background audio engine. When you play a YouTube video or any media in a browser tab while FoxHub is closed, background Spotify/YouTube audio now pauses immediately (0ms) and cleanly resumes when your tab video stops.
• Fixed Spotify 1ms Pause/Resume Toggle Glitch: Prevented Spotify's internal media state from overriding manual pause clicks or auto-pause state.
• Full-Width Spotify Volume Slider: Expanded the Spotify player bar volume control inside the compact sidebar view so you can click and drag the volume slider directly without needing the mouse scroll wheel.
• Dedicated Sidebar Settings Gear Icon: Added a dedicated Settings Gear button right below the "+" button on the left sidebar rail for 1-click access to Persistent Memory & Background Audio settings.
• Cleaner Persistent App Reopen & Zero White Flash: Removed the experimental freeze-frame snapshot overlay that caused a double-load flash on reopen, while keeping 0ms document_start Dark Mode cookie/theme pre-sync and RAM shell caching.

What's New in v2.6.5:
• Sidebar Right-Click Menu: Right-click any app icon on the left sidebar rail to immediately Remove/Unpin it from the sidebar, Close its background session, Open it in a browser tab, or open Customize Sidebar Apps (+).
• Multi-Message Thread 2FA Support: Always extracts the latest verification code from the newest message in multi-message Gmail threads and syncs automatically on open/focus.

What's New in v2.6.4:
• Multi-Message Thread 2FA Support: When services (like Battle.net, Steam, Discord, or Google) send multiple verification codes with the same subject into a single Gmail conversation thread, FoxHub now always extracts the code from the newest message at the bottom of the thread and displays the newest message at the top of the Reader View.
• Faster New Code Detection: Automatically syncs Gmail when opening/focusing FoxHub, switching to Mail, and every 10 seconds while the inbox is open so newly requested 2FA codes appear in seconds.
• Auto-Wake Read/Archived Threads: If a new verification email arrives inside a thread you previously marked as read or archived, FoxHub automatically surfaces it back to the top of your Unread inbox.

What's New in v2.6.3:
• Activation & Game Key Support: The 1-click "Copy Code" button now detects multi-segment hyphenated activation, launch, and gift keys (e.g. Battle.net D96P-5HT9-QM3NJ-VS89-CT8B, Steam XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX, and gift card keys) in full without slicing out individual segments.
• Refined Alphanumeric 2FA Matching: Improved boundary checks so single-token 2FA codes never match partial chunks inside hyphenated strings.

What's New in v2.6.2:
• Smarter 2FA & Verification Code Extractor: Ignores gamer tags / BattleTags / Discord handles with "#" discriminators so account numbers are never mistaken for 2FA codes.
• Alphanumeric Security Codes: Added support for uppercase+digit verification codes (such as Battle.net and Steam Guard codes like BV9W6D) alongside 4–8 digit and G-XXXXXX codes.
• Truncated Preview Auto-Fetch: Whenever Gmail's 128-character preview snippet cuts off a verification code at the end ("..."), FoxHub automatically fetches the full email body in the background so the complete 1-click "Copy Code" button appears right on the mail card.

What's New in FoxHub v2.6.1:

Instagram Sidebar & Lightbox Polish:
Fixed profile layout persistence when navigating from Reels to user profiles.
Profile post & reel modals now open in a clean, full-sized card view by default and toggle the scrollable comments & reply drawer on demand when clicking the Comment (💬) button.
Improved responsive scaling for Instagram post modals across both compact (436px) and wide (736px+) sidebar widths with zero letterboxing gaps.
Improved Instagram Direct (DM) thread switching speed by preventing redundant route reloads when selecting conversations.
Discord Compact Sidebar Support:
Fixed Discord's server & DM rail visibility at compact sidebar widths (<= 680px) by preserving CSS subgrid icon alignment and removing clipping masks, with smooth auto-expand on hover.
TikTok Action Pill Contrast:
Improved visibility of the bottom-right TikTok action bar pill with a frosted glass card and high-contrast white icons and counters.
X (Twitter) Timeline Memory:
Improved feed scroll position and active tab (For you / Following) restoration on cold sidebar reopen using progressive VirtualScroller anchor matching.
