Updates

Now on the Chrome Web Store

The Chrome extension no longer needs Developer mode. Install it from the Chrome Web Store in Chrome, Brave, Edge or Arc; the app registers the bridge itself. Already loaded the bundled copy? It keeps working.

New

• Chrome Web Store: one-click install, and Onboarding and Settings link straight to it.
• Switch to iCloud, safely: moving a local library to iCloud Drive targets the real iCloud folder and offers Open, Copy or Cancel with the right counts.

Improved

• Saving from Safari, Chrome and the Share menu is reliable with Ewig closed, keeps your note, and never duplicates a page saved from two places at once.
• New Archive keeps each bookmark’s own HTML, PDF and Image choice. Failed and cover-only captures show their real state.

Capture, rebuilt

You choose what to keep. Archives stay small and never come back blank.

New

• HTML, PDF, Image: three checkboxes, per bookmark or as a synced default.
• Kept small: compressed images, one copy of each resource, 25 MB cap.
• Quality-checked: a bad capture never replaces a good one. Failures retry. Recapture any page.
• Save with the app closed: the extensions start Ewig in the background in about two seconds.
• iPhone & iPad: background captures, archive in Files, switch between iCloud and local.

Improved

• PDF and image links are stored as what they are.
• Hung pages time out. Two Macs never render the same page.
• Import merges folders, handles large files, can be undone.

Sync, from first principles

Your files are the truth. The index is a cache rebuilt from disk.

New

• Incremental sync: changes land in milliseconds.
• No more ghosts: duplicate and phantom bookmarks are gone.
• Sync Diagnostics with an exportable log.

Improved

• One quiet sync line in the sidebar.
• A new device shows the whole library in seconds.
• Edits never rename folders.

Sync you can trust

A reliability pass and a calmer grid.

Improved

• Extension saves reach every device without opening the app.
• Covers stay put until their replacement is ready.
• Colour sketches paint the grid before images download.

Version 2: rock-solid capture

A new capture engine. Even stubborn pages archive cleanly.

New

• Smarter captures: pages settle, interstitials retry, every result is checked.
• Cookie banners handled before capture.
• PDF in every backup.
• Automatic covers on iOS, no Mac required.

Improved

• Smoother sync, less flashing, faster covers.
• Redesigned extension popup and iOS onboarding.
• Archive tab fixed on iPad.

Command palette and detail panel modes

One search surface, a panel that adapts, a tidier library.

New

• ⌘K palette: search, jump, switch views, run actions.
• Detail panel: side panel, popover or full screen.
• Duplicate Link Finder.
• macOS share extension.

Improved

• Copy all links from a collection.
• Smoother panel resizing on macOS.

Custom covers

Shoot your own photo or video covers.

New

• Photo & video covers on Mac and iOS.
• Clear Archive Data resets the index, not your files.
• Synced default archive across devices.

Improved

• HEIC by default: same quality, a fraction of the space.
• Favicons in the extension popup.
• Tapping a parent collection on iOS opens it.

Dead Link Finder

The first public release.

New

• Dead Link Finder: see which originals no longer load. Your snapshots still open.
• New collections from the extension.

Improved

• Visual polish across the extensions.
