Changelog
Browser Extension π» Win/Mac/Linux
v6.0 - 08/10/2026
β¨ NEW modern look: rounded side menu, menus, messages and mini tutorial, cleaner top-bar buttons in the same places and sizes, the same on every site
π NEW Dark Mode in the side menu: AUTO (like your computer), ON or OFF
π NEW Dark skin: makes light pages dark and leaves dark pages as they are
π NEW top-bar button: the window goes back to its default size and position in one click
π₯οΈ The window grows on bigger screens (1440p, 4K), in its usual place
π Safer window: if a monitor is unplugged or the place doesn’t fit, the window opens on the main screen instead of not opening
π₯ NEW Video of the window: 5, 15 or 30 seconds, your own time, or start and stop yourself (saved as MP4)
π The mini tutorial now shows every option: the side menu (Theme – Skin Color, Multi Window – Account, Incognito, Changelogβ¦) and the new buttons, without scrolling the page
π Edge: after an update or a restart, the open window shows “click here to reload”, so the top bar keeps working
π₯ NEW “New Window & Account”: open a second window with another account, side by side (allow the extension in private windows: “Allow in InPrivate” on Edge, “Run in Private Windows” on Firefox)
πͺ New Window opens a little to the side, so you see both windows
π¨ Theme – Skin Color reworked: the skin covers the whole site while the top bar and menus keep their colours, “None” really clears it and “Invert” is now a real dark mode π
π° Google News: the topic tabs and the side menu sit right under the top bar, nothing is cut
π° MSN: the header and the menu sit right under the top bar
π° BuzzFeed: the menu that sticks when you scroll no longer hides under the top bar
π Right-click βΊ “Open in News Hub kiosk” now also on Tasty and BuzzFeed News links
π Round of Bugfixes: the top bar shows on the first open, SideBar/WideBar work at the first click after you resize the window, Screenshot always takes the extension window
πΌοΈ News & Tips: pictures load on every site and the messages show at most once a day
π Mini tutorial and popup buttons look right on every site
π Top bar: the menu button sits in line with the other buttons on every site, and nothing under the bar blocks clicks on the page
π Security improvements and no more warnings on the extension’s Errors page
