        Hi @naz.r I think you should add the Github clickable link in 'About' so that it works internally with Merezhyvo Browser since the link in OpenStore points to a morph currently not working with Github. For usefulness, the browser must have access to the Gallery or the smartphone's photo folders to attach screenshots. Is this the case (not tested) ?

          totally agree, but it is in TODO yet. On UT that's a bit tricky part
          The browser has access only to internal sandbox for now, which is
          ~/.local/share/merezhyvo.naz.r/

          There are two folders inside
          ~/.local/share/merezhyvo.naz.r/mDocuments you can use to upload anything into opened pages
          ~/.local/share/merezhyvo.naz.r/mDownloads you can use for downloads

          you have access to these folders with the file manager so you can copy and past files into the folders and take files from there.
          For easier access you can run floowing commands in your Termilal:
          ln -s ~/.local/share/merezhyvo.naz.r/mDownloads ~/Downloads
          ln -s ~/.local/share/merezhyvo.naz.r/mDocuments ~/Documents

          then the folders will appear just inside your regular Documents and Downloads, it is going to be more convenient to use them.

            @naz.R In this case, bugs with screenshots are still reported on the forum while waiting for this to be fixed. Just seen your update 🙂

              Very Very difficult to try to attach a file in github. Tiny windows to choose a folder. Can't make bigger. Moreover, Download : permission denied ? Should be possible ?
              screenshot20251215_144255629.png.

              Noticed too that the cursor where the character should be located when typing a message is invisible

              At the bottom of the screen, in passwords, the message that appears (for example 'passwords locked') is much too small. Can't make it bigger. I've tried what possible.

                that's a bug. It should show another file picker.
                I'll fix it.

                right, that's the platform limitation I was talking about in my previous message. The platform doesn't allow the browser to have access out of its own sandbox. And that's a bit tricky to avoid it. So for now Merezhyvo has access only to ~/.local/share/merezhyvo.naz.r/
                Check my message above, please.

                Thanks again for testing and reporting

                    generally if you have to upload any files on any page, you have to place them into one of those two folders. By saying "place them" I mean copy from the place where they are and past into ~/.local/share/merezhyvo.naz.r/mDocuments (or mDownloads)
                    Then when you tap on a "choose file" button on a page you have to see the file picker like this
                    filepicker.png

                    and you should be able to choose a file here.

                    But, for some reason, as you just found, the file-picker doesn't work on GitHub page. So, I have to investigate and fix it.
                    And until the fix is released, it looks like you can't upload files on GitHub, unfortunately.

                        Merezhyvo v.0.4.5 has been released.

                        Added:
                        Tracker & ads blocking (domain-based), with per-site exceptions and counters in the security popover.
                        Norwegian UI translation and Norwegian keyboard layout.

                        Changed:
                        Page zoom is now persisted per-tab across sessions, separately for mobile and desktop modes.
                        Updated and improved UI translations for multiple languages.
                        Various UI polish and small layout tweaks.
                        Updated Electron/Chromium engine (Chromium 142.0.7444.235)

                        Fixed:
                        File downloads and uploads: fixed several issues with saving downloads and uploading files on websites.
                        Fixed text input on some sites where typing did not work.
                        Fixed a disappearing caret issue in certain cases.
                        Fixed context menu positioning.
                        Fixed an issue where the Passwords internal page could remain open / not close correctly when the password manager was locked.


                        @ida_ please check the keyboard and translations. Please let me know if there are any issues with them

                          @naz.r Constantly improving! THANKS. 👍 Just bothered by one basic thing: carriage return key doesn't work. So newline impossible. Very blocking, for example when writting an email.

                            thanks for the feedback and for the issue reporting. Added this task for the next release scope.

                              just released a small update to the previous release. It fixes the bug when trackers blocker wrongly was blocking all requests to duckduckgo.com. Now it blocks only requests to improve.duckduckgo.com as it should be.

                                @naz.R Wow, it works great! Both the interface language and the keyboard. Thank you for adding both, the UI translation was a very nice surprise. This browser is so pleasant to use.

                                  I'm sorry but I think I don't understand this browser. Where are the settings? Why is there a paper airplane to the left of the URL bar that leads to WhatsApp which I don't use?

                                  Is currently using an Op5t
                                  Also owns an Op1, a BQ E4.5 and an Xperia X, as well as a BQ tablet and a Pinetab2. Please, someone... make it stop.

                                      The settings are on the right-hand side (the cogwheel).
                                      The paper airplane is a shortcut to WhatsApp and Telegram Messenger.
                                      Perhaps this feature could be hidden in the settings...

                                        sure, I am happy to help you to figure it out

                                        You can find settings under the very last top button, this one
                                        a3b340f3-97e4-4907-82df-b8182a5b4f7e-image.png

                                        the airplane button opens a messenger panel with web versions of WhatsApp, Messenger, Telegram.
                                        In Settings you can re-order them. If you use Telegram and don't use WhatsUp, you can set up Telegram to be on the first tab.

                                          @naz.R Thank you, that does help! I never tapped on the sun because I thought it meant day mode / night mode. Now that I can find the settings, they seem quite sensible.
                                          (Except for the messengers icon, which I'm never going to use, so I would probably switch that off if possible. But that's just me. Apparently other people use it.)

                                          That said, I'm very happy that UT is getting some up to date browsers, which was long overdue... and so I'm grateful for this new option too.

                                              and you just gave me an idea to add a new option into messengers settings to hide this messengers button in case if someone don't use it.
                                              Will add it in the next release.
                                              I am happy again that you like the browser now 🙂
