### 1.4.1 — 2026-04-12

NEW IN 1.4.1:
- Rich push notifications: YouTube, TikTok, and X/Twitter notifications now show a thumbnail image. A new Notification Service Extension downloads the image_url from the push payload and attaches it before delivery, with a graceful fallback to a plain notification if the download fails or times out.
- APNs environment tagging: Device tokens are now tagged with their APNs environment (production or sandbox) at registration time. The environment is detected from the embedded provisioning profile (falling back to the build configuration on simulator), so the backend no longer has to probe production-then-sandbox when delivering pushes to TestFlight/dev builds.
- Build configuration: CODE_SIGN_ENTITLEMENTS is now wired explicitly for the main app target in project.yml so future xcodegen runs cannot strip the aps-environment entitlement.
