New look
- Redesigned popup: everything you need fits in one compact card, about half the previous height.
- The enable switch, media details, and settings now sit in the header.
- Media details (codecs, stream format, source counts, boost support) opens in its own view.
- New 400% preset, and the mute button sits alongside the presets.
Easier volume control
- The slider is easier to use at high maximums: 100% is always in the middle, and boost levels fill the right half. 100–500% no longer gets squeezed against the left edge at a 10000% max.
- Arrow keys change volume by exactly 5%, Page Up/Down by 25%, and Home/End jump to 0% or your maximum.
Themes
- New System theme (now the default) that follows your Firefox and OS light or dark setting. Light and Dark are still available, and your existing choice is kept.
Privacy and security
- Waveform now connects to each page over a private channel that starts before the site's own scripts run, so websites can no longer read or fake Waveform's messages.
- Waveform no longer adds its own script tags to pages or exposes files that websites can load.
- Ads and other embedded third-party frames can no longer break the popup or change the settings Waveform saves for the site you're on.
- Still no data collection, and no new permissions.
Fixes
- Large-text mode no longer cuts off five-digit volumes.Source code released under GNU General Public License v3.0 only
