Releases

Google Play releases happen every week or so depending on new features, bugfixes and translations.

GitHub releases are marked with a "-dev" suffix and happen more frequently. They are always stable, tested builds.

Reporting a bug

Bug reports are always welcome and are my top priority.

If you run into an issue, let me know by submitting a bug report.

Feature Requests

If you have questions or a general feature request, please post them to Discussions.

Full Content Support

Sometimes Capy's full content mode doesn't work as expected on a site due to the chaos of the web.

When this happens, please submit a separate feature request to support full content for that site: Full Content Request form

Roadmap

Check out the project roadmap to see what's currently in progress and on deck.

Translations

Translations are hosted on Weblate. Feel free to add or update translations.

If you don't see your language, please submit a request in Discussions.
