🆕 Latest Updates

v1.0.13

• Corner loading for on-page generate: a compact bottom-right chip while MindSnap works, then a smooth expand into the full mind map.
• Smarter side panel: if the side panel is open, generation runs there instead of covering the page.
• Personal API key required: generation is blocked until you add your own key (Gemini, OpenAI, Anthropic, or custom) — no more shared-key quota failures on first use.
• Softer error toasts: calmer styling and clearer API-key guidance when setup is needed.
• Privacy controls: turn usage analytics on or off in Settings; privacy policy updated to describe what we collect.
• Uninstall feedback: a short survey helps us understand why people leave so we can improve faster.

v1.0.12

• I migrated MindSnap from Plasmo to WXT to improve app quality, reduce size, and make the extension more stable and maintainable. If anything feels broken after updating, feel free to contact me — I’m happy to help.
• Smoother overall experience: The extension runs more reliably and loads more consistently across popup, options, side panel, and page tools.
• Richer node editing: Add links, bullet lists, and numbered lists in mind map nodes — with clearer formatting styles.
• Easier multi-line editing: Press Enter for a new line (no more accidental save). Shift+Enter inserts a soft line break; Cmd/Ctrl+Enter or the toolbar saves.
• More reliable AI mind maps: Stricter JSON instructions so models return clean, parseable results more consistently across providers.
• Storage controls: See how much Chrome storage and saved mind maps use on this device, and clear page cache or saved maps when you need space.
• Better insights for improvement: Usage analytics are more accurate, helping us understand what works and keep improving MindSnap. You can turn analytics off in Settings.
• Improved language support: Translations load more reliably, with better coverage for Portuguese (Brazil), Chinese (Simplified), and Norwegian.
• Clearer extension icons: Fresh, consistent icons in the toolbar and browser.
• Faster pages: Welcome and mind map screens feel snappier thanks to lighter images.
• Quicker page tools: Selection and generate tools on websites start faster and feel more responsive when you need them.
