The other good news that is worth mentioning is that the update also includes fixing the existing problem Link Bubble users face which is the ability to toggle the bubble from the notification bar. With the update to version 1.3, aside from the added support for Android L, and for mirroring webpage content to Android Wear, users can continue to work in the background even when the bubble is held invisible on screen, the action bypasses the background audio limitations imposed by Google.
The full change log is mentioned below:
NEW Features:
· The update lets Android Wear devices to show text content from a link. In addition, links can be opened or closed on your device through Wear.
· Users have the option to ‘hide’ Link Bubbke through the notification without having fear of discontinuance of access to the app. Thus, the action allows Youtube playback background or similar access.
IMPROVEMENT:
· Better and clearer animation when web content slides on/off screen.
· Able to restore slide-in animation the moment the first link starts to load.
· Add hack that prevents Pocket from showing up when you add links to it.
· When links are sent to external apps while running the L Preview, Link Bubble can be minimized.
· “intercept links from” works suitably for Android 4.4 and below.
· Cookies are now available in Incognito Mode, though cleared at the end of the session.
CHANGE:
· Adjusting the Incognito Mode setting enables the bubbles to open and be reloaded. Tabs from the preceding sessions are no longer automatically restored. A prompt will be displayed right away that requires confirmation to restore the tabs.
· Empties cached web data from time to time.
· Sadly, because of the Android API required for this functionality that is reduced by Google, the “intercept links from” option has been disabled for those running the L Preview
BUG FIX:
· Fix rare issue wherein not a trace of a single tab would appear on screen and pressing the device’s Home button failed to close Link Bubble.
· Update fixes issue pertaining to web contents that fail to slide on screen.
· Fix issue wherein after the Pro trial has finished, the bubble favicon is not updated.
· It fixes the issue wherein “Unable to launch 3rd party application is erroneously showed.
