    Version 3.8.5

    Released Jun 1, 2026 - 102.58 KB
    Works with firefox 142.0 and later
    The Debuging, Reliability/Focus & Stability (v3.7.0 — v3.8.5)
    Focus: Debuging, reliability/Focus, correction and stability.
    • What’s New:
    • Discrete Eye Customization: Added a dedicated eye color control (#color-eye) allowing separate color configuration for corner outlines and internal dots.
    • Quiet-Zone/Margin Slider: Implemented an interactive slider (#qr-margin) to dynamically adjust the spacing around the outer border of the generated QR code.
    • Manual Error Correction Select: Added a manual density selector (#qr-ecl) supporting low, medium, quartile, and high data redundancy options.
    • Linked Color Pickers: Configured a smart matching routine where modifying the primary dark color picker automatically aligns the secondary picker to facilitate quick solid-color design, while editing the secondary picker independently initiates gradient generation.
    • Dynamic Branded Defaults: Optimized startup initialization to load the branded logo preset and theme primary styling immediately upon load.
    • What’s Fixed:
    • Gradient Overwrite Lock: Resolved a caching issue in the layout rendering engine where solid colors failed to replace active gradients by explicitly clearing the configuration's gradient parameters when colors match.
    • Compliance & Security Sanitization: Mitigated browser extension security concerns by swapping standard markup injections with secure node creation via DOMParser, replaceChildren(), and DocumentFragment construction.
    • Live Customization Rendering: Swapped classic "change" color hooks for "input" listeners, enabling real-time visual feedback while actively dragging selectors.
    • Over-Sizing Protection: Enforced safety controls to restrict maximum logo footprints to a 30% area limit and automatically elevate the Error Correction Level to High when a center graphic is active.
    • What’s Removed:
    • Raw HTML String Generation: Eliminated all direct innerHTML evaluations inside tab displays, history cards, and scan parsers to prevent browser sandbox warning flags.

  • Version 3.5.0

    Released May 1, 2026 - 109.89 KB
    Works with firefox 142.0 and later
    Focus: Modern aesthetics, social integration, and cross-browser stability.
    • What’s New:
    • Modern QR Engine Upgrade: Migrated from legacy to the powerful library.
    • Full Emoji Support: Natively supports all modern emojis (surrogate pairs) and UTF-8 characters without crashing or rendering invalid codes.
    • Dynamic Center Logos: Added a logo-branding system. Users can now add images to the center of QR codes via local upload, image URL, or a new "Quick-Preset" gallery.
    • Auto-Branding Templates: QR codes now automatically apply the correct logo when a specific template is selected (e.g., selecting the WhatsApp template instantly applies the WhatsApp logo).
    • Advanced Styling Suite: Expanded customization to include "Extra-Rounded," "Classy," and "Liquid" dot shapes, plus independent styling for the Eye Frame and Eye Center.
    • Expanded Social Templates: New specialized templates for WhatsApp (with pre-filled messages), Telegram (@username support), FB Messenger, Instagram, X (Twitter), and YouTube.
    • What’s Fixed:
    • CORS Image Fetching: Implemented a background script "Proxy Fetcher" to bypass Same-Origin Policy (CORS) blocks when scanning images directly from external websites.
    • Secure Download Logic: Replaced the library’s internal download system with a custom "Blob-to-Anchor" method to bypass Chrome and Firefox Extension security restrictions.
    • Snipping Tool Sidebar Fix: Resolved an issue where the on-page scanner wouldn't trigger from the sidebar by targeting the lastFocusedWindow instead of the sidebar window itself.
    • Logo Override Logic: Fixed a bug where local file uploads weren't cleared when switching between different template logos.
    • Firefox Sidebar Compatibility: Standardized extApi and sidebar toggles to ensure the snipping tool and context menus work perfectly in Firefox.
    • What’s Removed:
    • Legacy Library: Removed legacy QR library and over 150 lines of manual HTML5 Canvas drawing code, significantly reducing the extension's file size and complexity.
