Latest Windows release
v0.6.21 — 2026-10-31
Changes
- Next layout skips enabled layouts that leave the text unchanged and selects the next layout that changes it. Shared Russian/Ukrainian text such as
рфandшььшbecomeshaandimmiwhen English follows in the cycle. - Configured order is preserved. If no enabled convertible layout changes the text, it remains unchanged and the operation advances one layout. Direct layout shortcuts retain their existing behavior.
Validation
Passed 413 native regressions, 473 input/UI checks, screenshot editor UI, notification registration, 48 updater checks and updater progress checks.
Limitations
Existing clipboard, accessibility and input-context verification limitations remain. Copy retries and paste readback verification are unchanged.
Upgrade: choose Update in the tray menu. Legacy v0.3.0–v0.4.1 clients first receive the v0.4.2 compatibility bridge, then the current full release. v0.2.3 and earlier require manual installation.
