v2.1.0
Chrome Web Store Hardening, RAM Saver & CWS Compliance
October 15, 2026
Tabvora v2.1.0 is a major hardening and policy-compliance milestone, introducing the RAM Saver memory optimizer, multi-tier security screening for optional Draft Recovery, 40 curated aesthetic wallpapers with dynamic live effects, zero host permissions, and full Chrome Web Store policy alignment.
Key Features & Improvements
•RAM Saver (Memory Optimizer):
One-click memory optimization using chrome.tabs.discard to suspend inactive background tabs and free up system RAM, automatically protecting pinned tabs and media playback.
•Hardened Sensitive Field Screening:
Multi-tier heuristic filtering for optional Draft Recovery that screens out passwords, PINs, tokens, CVVs, expiration dates, credit card numbers, authentication forms, and phone numbers before local storage.
•40 Curated Wallpapers & Live Effects:
Refreshed library of 40 high-definition aesthetic backgrounds featuring real-time dynamic atmospheric canvas animations (aurora, rain, fireflies, cosmic lake, stars).
•Zero Host Permissions:
Completely eliminated broad host_permissions from the extension manifest. Content scripts are scoped strictly to top-level pages (all_frames: false) for user-enabled optional features.
•Full Asset & License Transparency:
Bundled LICENSES.md and ATTRIBUTION.md catalogues providing full provenance documentation for all code, audio synthesis, and visual assets.
•Digital Wellbeing Wall-Clock Timers:
Upgraded timer tracking to wall-clock timestamps with milestone crossing guards and reliable midnight reset handling.

Major Feature Release & Glassmorphism UI Update
July 31, 2026
Tabvora v2.0.0 introduces major productivity features including Digital Wellbeing reminders, real-time website & browser limits, a new dashboard usage widget toggle, and chamfered glassmorphism popup redesigns.
New Features & Enhancements
•Digital Wellbeing Reminders (Default OFF): Integrated session-only wellness break triggers (Eye, Stretch, Walk, and Long Break) to encourage screen breaks. Timers run locally and reset automatically upon Chrome exit.
•Global Browser & Site Usage Limits: Configurable daily time limits per website or across overall Chrome usage.
•Browser Usage Widget Settings: Added a toggle in Settings > Appearance allowing users to show or hide the dashboard Browser Usage Card.
•Native Chamfered Glass Popups: Redesigned limit reminders and wellbeing modals into sleek, non-intrusive native dark glassmorphism overlays.
Fixes & Core Optimizations
•Real-Time Video Auto-Popup Fix: Fixed limit detection so popups trigger automatically while watching full-screen videos (e.g. YouTube) without requiring tab switching or page reload.
•HTML Layout & Settings Refactor: Resolved sidebar tab nesting bugs inside `newtab.html` to guarantee clean navigation across all settings sections.
•Background Service Worker Sync: Refactored background alarms and content scripts for seamless Manifest V3 compatibility and zero performance impact.
