# Highlights 🌟 This is an urgent hotfix release with a single purpose. We recommend all users upgrade. - 🛠️ **Fixed "Check for Updates" failing with an error** Clicking Check for Updates while a newer version was available threw "Cannot call invokeAndWait from the event dispatcher thread" and the update flow stopped there. This affected the Windows installer and macOS builds; the Microsoft Store and Windows portable zip channels were not affected (#4554). # Bug Fixes 🐛 - :bug: Guard update-check trigger against invokeAndWait on the EDT (#4555) **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/CrossPaste/crosspaste-desktop/compare/2.1.4.2340...2.1.5.2343

# Highlights 🌟 - 🔄 **Faster, more reliable reconnection** This release focuses on the connection between your devices. When you switch Wi-Fi networks, your network address changes, or your computer wakes from sleep, CrossPaste now rediscovers your other devices and reconnects much faster — no more being stuck "offline" for a long time. Even when a device's IP address changes, it reconnects reliably (#4506 #4510 #4515 #4519 #4521 #4527 #4529). - 🆕 **In-app changelog and upgrade reminder** You can now see what each update brings right inside the app. When a new version is available, a small dot appears in the left menu to remind you to upgrade (#4525). - ⬆️ **Windows (portable zip): update from within the app** The Windows portable (zip) build can now update itself. When a new version is available, CrossPaste downloads and verifies it, then swaps in the new build and restarts — no more manually downloading and extracting a fresh zip (#4537). - 🖱️ **Fixed an endless paste loop** Fixed an issue where pressing Cmd/Ctrl+V could trigger an endless paste loop in some situations. Pasting is now more reliable (#4501 #4502). -

# Highlights 🌟 - 📤 **Faster file sharing across devices** Sharing files between your devices is now snappier and more reliable. The device you copied from delivers files directly to your other devices, instead of making them ask for the data first. This also paves the way for the upcoming iOS Share Extension, letting you share files straight from any app on your iPhone or iPad to your desktop (#4456 #4457 #4467 #4468). - 🛡️ **Windows: heads-up when your network blocks CrossPaste** On Windows, if your network is set to "Public", the Windows Firewall silently blocks CrossPaste from finding nearby devices. CrossPaste now detects this and offers a one-click shortcut to the Windows setting where you can switch the network to Private (#4402 #4404). - 🖱️ **Smoother drag-and-drop from CrossPaste** Dragging items from the CrossPaste side panel into other apps is now much better. On macOS, the drag preview no longer hides behind the paste window — you can finally see what you're dragging. The side panel also handles edge cases more gracefully, so drags don't get blocked while previews are still loading, and dragging stays smooth ev

# Release Notes - v2.0.0 # 🧩 Note on the Chrome Extension The Chrome extension is now live on the Chrome Web Store: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/crosspaste/aajpcfbdbnaidaaljamjpmmjcfebhmlh A few things to keep in mind about scope: - The extension is a lightweight companion, not a replacement for the native desktop app. It is not feature-complete and is not intended to cover every workflow the desktop client supports. - Supported: using the extension as a lightweight in-browser clipboard manager, and pairing it with the native desktop app to sync clipboard content across devices. - Not supported: extension-to-extension cross-device pairing. Two browsers running only the extension cannot sync directly with each other — at least one peer in the mesh must be a native CrossPaste desktop (or mobile) instance. If you need the full cross-device experience, install the native desktop app on at least one of your devices and pair the extension to it. # Highlights 🌟 - 🧩 **Chrome Extension — A Brand New Platform** CrossPaste now runs as a first-class **Chrome Extension**, bringing clipboard sync directly to the browser. Includes WebSocket-based file pulling

# Release Notes - v1.2.9 # Highlights 🌟 - 🏷️ **Tag-Based Organization System** Replaced the simple favorite boolean with a flexible **tag-based system**, enabling users to organize and filter clipboard items with custom tags. Includes AppControl hooks for tag creation and pinning (#3989 #3991). - 🔄 **Right-Click "Sync To" for Targeted Device Syncing** A new right-click context menu lets you sync any clipboard item directly to a specific device, giving you fine-grained control over what gets shared and where (#4019 #4020). - 🚫 **Source Exclusion — Filter Clipboard by Application** You can now exclude specific applications from clipboard monitoring, preventing unwanted content from being captured. Useful for password managers, banking apps, and other sensitive tools (#3920 #3921). - 🖥️ **Desktop UI Polish & Platform Refinements** Rounded window corners on Windows and Linux, adaptive QR code sizing for multi-device pairing, a redesigned About page matching the mobile layout, and async font loading to eliminate UI stutter (#4006 #4011 #3996 #4004). # Bug Fixes 🐛 - Fix `SQLITE_BUSY` errors by serializing `SyncRuntimeInfoDao` writes (#3994) - Fix `

# Highlights 🌟 - 🎨 **Material 3 & Tailwind UI Evolution** A comprehensive visual overhaul migrating the application to the **CrossPasteColor** M3 theme and a Tailwind CSS-inspired color palette. The entire icon system has been refactored using **Material Symbols**, providing a unified and modern aesthetic (#3718 #3734 #3740). - 🤖 **MCP Server for AI Integration** Introduced support for the **Model Context Protocol (MCP)**, allowing AI agents to securely access your clipboard data. This update includes a dedicated settings interface for managing agent permissions and connectivity (#3839 #3841). - 🫧 **BubbleWindow & Advanced Inline Editing** Launched the **BubbleWindow**, enabling seamless inline text and HTML editing directly from the Search window. The new editor includes a floating toolbar with undo/redo support and optimized layouts for rapid content adjustments (#3837 #3860 #3862 #3867). - 🔄 **Advanced File Management & Sync Control** Significant upgrades to the sync engine, including the ability to sync large files directly to system download directories and granular controls for specific content types. A new **"Cut" operation** with full undo suppo

# Highlights 🌟 - 🎨 **Material 3 Design Overhaul** A massive visual upgrade transitioning the entire application to Material 3 principles.

# 🚀 Highlights This is an **urgent release** addressing critical performance issues and streamlining the UI. - ⚡️ Performance & Stability Hotfix: Addressed UI freezing and lag.
