Changelog

What changed.

Flux is still early. This page keeps launch fixes visible so buyers can see what changed before installing.

0.4.40

  • Stops the macOS updater from rescanning Stremio every minute when no app update occurred.
  • Keeps update recovery through launch-time patching and the Stremio file-change watcher.

0.4.38

  • Repairs the macOS launcher path that could open plain Stremio without the Flux home screen.
  • Reapplies the local patch at launch so upstream Stremio shell changes fail visibly instead of silently falling back.

0.4.37

  • Reroutes desktop proxy requests for the incompatible current web shell to the compatible shell-v4.4 UI.
  • Fixes the splash-screen failure caused by Stremio 5.1.25 loading the newer web app shell.

0.4.31

  • Added a desktop compatibility fallback for Stremio 5.x when the launcher points at the newer web shell.
  • Keeps older desktop shells on the compatible shell-v4.4 app UI instead of failing at splash.

0.4.30

  • Fixed proxied Stremio shell asset loading by adding the correct app-shell base URL.
  • Kept Flux loading from the local desktop server even when the app shell uses remote assets.

0.4.29

  • Removed the remaining service-worker shim from the Stremio app shell patch.
  • Flux now loads through one late HTML script only, which is safer across Stremio updates.

0.4.28

  • Stopped modifying Stremio JavaScript bundle responses.
  • Injects Flux through the HTML shell only, reducing breakage from Stremio web updates.

0.4.27

  • Added a visible first-run fallback when catalog rows are slow or unavailable.
  • Added Retry loading and Change rows actions instead of leaving an empty Flux shell.

0.4.26

  • Clarified the manual update flow for Mac and Windows buyers.
  • Documented compatibility reports for Stremio desktop builds Flux cannot patch safely.
  • Fixed Windows CMD installer wording in the packaged README.

0.4.25

  • Improved Mac and Windows install scripts.
  • Added safer restore and diagnostic paths.
  • Improved home-screen load behavior and blank-screen recovery.
  • Polished downloads manager density and status text.

Launch site

  • Added install, compatibility, support, refund, and privacy pages.
  • Added launch-week tester-license checkout and automatic $2.99 switch.
  • Added clearer desktop-only and local-UI-only wording.

Known limits

  • Flux is for Stremio desktop only.
  • Stremio web, mobile, and TV apps are not supported.
  • If Stremio changes its desktop app shell, Flux may need a compatibility update.
