## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 0.1.5 — 2026-09-25

• Square pictures, such as the album art in a music file, no longer make the player flip between portrait and landscape on its own.
• Next and Previous no longer turn the phone to landscape and back between two items of the same shape, and music files with cover art open in portrait.
• Tapping an item in Continue Watching now plays through the rest of its folder.
• A portrait video no longer swings back after you turn the phone, and a Rotate choice now survives Repeat and Retry.
• The Favorites star always does what it shows.
• Wi-Fi Transfer: uploads that take longer than an hour no longer fail, and a busy upload waits its turn instead of giving up.
• Plex: a certificate problem is reported as such instead of switching to another address.
• Folders update as soon as something is deleted, renamed or moved, and folder names iOS would hide as packages, such as Trip.app, are refused.
• Subtitle search tells Brazilian from European Portuguese and Simplified from Traditional Chinese.
• More fixes to uploads, storage errors and playback.

### 0.1.4 — 2026-09-20

• The queue now advances behind the Lock Screen and under Picture in Picture in another app, instead of pausing at the end of an item.
• Fixes a crash when iOS refused an orientation change while the player was rotating.
• Renaming, moving or deleting a video now carries its sidecar subtitles with it.
• Thumbnails of media deleted outside the app are cleared instead of accumulating.
• The controls and swipe seeking survive a scene change, and a scrub the system cancels no longer seeks.
• Settings changed while the next item was still opening now apply to it.
• Plex: removing a server or signing out no longer stops a local file that was playing; searches with a plus sign work; a manually added server keeps its progress without an account.
• WebDAV: shares can be edited again after a password read fails; repeated listing entries are dropped.
• Wi-Fi Transfer, OpenSubtitles and the library report the actual reason when something fails.
• Many smaller fixes to playback, subtitles, sleep timer, and file operations.

### 0.1.3 — 2026-09-15

• Sleep timer, audio delay adjustment, and a Media Inspector for the playing file.
• Open in Radar Player from other apps, plus Play Next and queue reordering.
• Connect WebDAV shares alongside Plex, and browse linked folders with rename, move, delete, and new folder.
• Speed and volume now sit behind their own buttons next to Close, tinted with the theme accent.
• Keyboard shortcuts and App Intents for hands-free control.
• Vertical videos keep their shape when the interface rotates.
• Picture in Picture no longer opens a window nothing renders into, and a clip that ends while Picture in Picture plays in the background now advances the queue instead of reporting Unable to Play.
• VoiceOver reaches the player's zoom and watched controls.
• Many fixes to queue handling, subtitles, file operations, and error reporting.

### 0.1.2 — 2026-09-05

• Fixes a crash when the playback queue changed while the queue panel was open.
• Hardens video rendering on iPhone against frames the renderer could not classify.
• A stream that drops mid-playback now shows Unable to Play with Retry instead of ending early.
• OpenSubtitles searches no longer make a redundant request.
• The Radar Files source stays hidden until it holds media.

### 0.1.1 — 2026-09-02

Minor bug fixes and improvements.
