These are the main features targeting this release:

  • Support connecting to a custom server
  • Don't log users out unnecessarily (better handle 401s, also makes migration possible for Fx Home users)
  • Auto refresh data when you resume the app on iOS4 and above (don't be too aggressive)
  • Add a client version in the app that might be useful for support and troubleshooting.
  • Support both absolute and relative URLs in responses from server (speeds up user migration dramatically)
  • Allow users to type in a URL from the search tab and visit that URL even if it is not in their AwesomeBar search result. If it is neither a valid URL nor a term that matches AwesomeBar results, provide option to search for term via search engine. (Added Aug 3)
  • Localize the app in following locales:
    • Japanese
    • German
    • French
    • Italian
    • Spanish
    • Chinese
    • Dutch
  • Support captive portals more effectively by prompting users to enter credentials required to connect to the internet (P2)
  • Send localized instruction emails (P2)
