Changelog
All notable changes to Still are documented here. Versions follow Semantic Versioning.
0.3.1 — June 2026
Improved
- Privacy-first page access — Still only reads the page you are on after you click the extension or use the keyboard shortcut. It no longer asks for access to every site up front.
- Reader script on demand — the reader loads into the active tab when you activate Still, not in the background on pages you have not opened.
- Bundled fonts — Inter and Atkinson Hyperlegible still load locally from inside the extension.
0.3.0 — June 2026
Added
- Enter fullscreen when Still opens — optional setting that puts Chrome in fullscreen when you start reading; restores your previous window state when you exit Still.
- Reader font choice — Inter (default), Atkinson Hyperlegible, or your system font for article text.
- System appearance — theme and high contrast can follow your device settings (light/dark and increased contrast).
Improved
- View transitions when entering and exiting reader mode (respects reduced-motion preference).
- In-reader settings popover layout and legibility; options page grouped under Reading.
- Article images centered in the reader column.

- English and Spanish UI; assistive-tech support (skip link, focus trap in settings, progress announcements).
- Scroll position restored when you re-open Still on the same page in the same session.
Improved
