- oasisfeng (06 Apr 21)

- oasisfeng (06 Apr 21)
FIX: The action tip "Freeze" should not be shown for frozen app.
- oasisfeng (06 Apr 21)
UPDATE: Place app action "Freeze" before "Clone".
- oasisfeng (06 Apr 21)
FIX: Besides persistent service for shortcut synchronization, also update shortcuts upon device start-up and Island app update. Rename ShortcutsRepairer to ShortcutsUpdater as the former is most probably disabled in previous version of Island.
- oasisfeng (02 Apr 21)
FIX: The "Cross-profile apps" setting should not be shown for Mainland if not managed.
- oasisfeng (02 Apr 21)
FIX: Bring back launch shortcut prefix settings on Android 7, since Dynamic Shortcut Label is only supported on Android 8+.

ADD: New ContentProvider-based lambda shuttle implementation, to replace PendingIntentShuttle. This new implementation requires only one-time initialization, not every device boot-up. It is always synchronous, thus no more complex coroutines.
- oasisfeng (16 Mar 21)
UPDATE: Add a placeholder entry in app list UI for app being cloned. As App Installer is migrated to notification-based UI, we need a visual feedback for cloning procedure since it may take some time to finish.
