Major Update

Update v2.11.0 - New Volume Flyout!

The new volume flyout The volume flyout's expanded volume mixer

Left: Volume Flyout, Right: Expanded Volume Mixer

This update introduces a major new feature we are super excited about: the highly requested Volume Flyout! We've also added a highly requested option to hide the pause icon overlay, and squashed a bug with Acrylic window backgrounds. 🎉 Thanks to everyone for your continued support and feedback <3

📝 Changelog

New features & settings:

  • 🔊 New Volume Flyout (Preview) — Introducing the brand-new Volume Flyout feature! It features a clean, modern design and also includes an expanded volume mixer so you can control individual app volumes directly from the flyout. Turning on this setting will disable Windows 11's native volume flyout!
  • 👁️ Hide Pause Icon Overlay — Added a new Taskbar Widget setting that gives you the ability to hide the pause icon overlay over the album art for a more unobstructed experience.

More updates:

  • Updated how media player icons are cached, significantly improving Media Flyout's performance and smoothness!
  • Fixed an issue where flyouts with Acrylic backgrounds were not updating properly when the Windows system theme changed. It should now seamlessly adapt!
  • Updated under-the-hood dependencies to their latest versions for improved performance and stability.
  • The media flyout now more accurately detects that your mouse is hovering over it, preventing it from hiding when you don't want it to
  • Other bug fixes and changes

Major Update

Update v2.10.0 - Lock Keys Animations & More!

This update introduces some exciting new features: Lock Keys flyout has improved animations, you can now autohide the Taskbar Widget if media is paused, and the Visualizer is much more efficient! 🎉 Thanks to everyone for your continued support and feedback <3

📝 Changelog

New features & settings:

  • 🔓 New, Smooth Animations for the Lock Keys flyout — The lock keys indicators are now subtly animated, giving a much smoother experience when toggling lock keys! This is enabled by default and can be disabled in Settings > Lock Keys Flyout.
  • 🎵 Improved Visualizer — Optimized the audio visualizer experience: rounded corners look better especially with smaller bars, and processing is ~2.2x faster (expect less CPU usage)!
  • ⏸️ Autohide Taskbar Widget — Added a new option to automatically hide the Taskbar Widget whenever your media is paused in Settings > Taskbar Widget.

Other updates:

  • Simplified Taskbar Widget options by hiding "Click to Open Media Flyout" and "Close Flyout on Second Click", and setting them always on. I understand that a lot of users might find the settings overwhelming, and these changes make navigating just a bit less cluttered.
  • Fixed an issue where settings sometimes get reset to default if users shut down the computer before saving fully finishes, leading to corrupt save files. The new system creates backups of previous saves to load from.
  • Fixed incorrect lock states for the Lock Keys flyout if they were pressed rapidly: the indicators should be way more accurate now!
  • Removed "Experimental" from the Next Up Flyout section
  • Updated developers and translators list in About
  • Other bug fixes and changes

Language updates:

  • Added three new languages - Catalan, Hindi, and Slovak - thanks to our open-source contributors!
  • Updated translations of 22 languages (Thanks to @D4NA-DANA @oski165 @zen1337th @TranMC @weiss-rn @yllnsbprs-arch @Xshadow9 @mak7im01 @Self4215 @notaarryan @hayiamzhengxum @zorekryk @avshalombegler @dft-haeil @Marks12520 @Y345ez @AnsonVTo ❤️)
