Build 202610090855
Pop-ups are kept back, routines repeat on any schedule, and Look works as Arc's editor.
Added
Open at Login
Settings › General › Open at Login opens Yab hidden as you log in.
Pop-ups kept back
A window a page opens without your click is kept back, and "Window blocked" beside the site opens it or always allows the site.
Page not working?
Reload a site three times in twenty seconds on a page the ad blocker changed, and the corner offers Allow Ads Here.
Routines on any schedule
Routines repeat monthly, on a weekday of the month like the last Friday, every few days or weeks, yearly, or more than once a day.
Look as Arc's
A space's Look works as Arc's editor: pages of ready colors and gradients under the field, Auto, Light or Dark for each space, and + and − to add or take away a color.
Resize by dragging
In Developer Tools' device mode, drag the page's edges or corner to any size, as in Chrome's Responsive mode.
Fold a space
Click a space's name above its tabs to fold its kept tabs and folders away, or bring them back, as in Arc. Its ••• or a right click opens the space's menu.
Agents send what you asked
An agent can send a mail from Yab's mail page when you asked for exactly that one, after you say yes on a card showing who it goes to, the subject and the words.
Check for Updates
The Yab menu has Check for Updates…, and Restart to Update once an update is ready.
Improved
Tabs you just used stay
When memory runs out, tabs you looked at in the last ten minutes, tabs playing sound, pins, kept tabs and sites kept awake stay, as in Chrome. "Put idle tabs to sleep" now only sets the four-hour timer, off unless you turn it on.
Tabs from a window behind
A tab in a window behind another can be picked or dragged on the first click, as in Chrome.
A tab's close button
A tab's close button comes with the tab's highlight, faint, and gets its square only under the pointer.
Console as Chrome's
Console's prompt sits right after the last message, and Developer Tools' head shows one count of errors and warnings, only when there are some, that opens Console.
Same marks for errors
Developer Tools' errors list marks Errors and Warnings with the same ⊗ and ⚠ as Console, instead of colored dots.
Application's sidebar
Rows in Developer Tools' Application sidebar take every click, as in Chrome.
Updates within the hour
Yab looks for updates every hour instead of once a day, and an urgent fix restarts Yab by itself once you have been away for ten minutes, your tabs back as after ⌘Q.
Any setting by asking
⌘T and ⌘J can change any setting tasks can change, like the search engine or peek, not only the theme, sidebar, tabs, fonts, zoom, mail and bookmarks.
A kept tab's minus
A kept tab shows a minus under the pointer, as Arc's pinned tabs do: it puts the tab down and keeps it. Put down, its cross takes it out of your kept tabs.
Files by their path
A path on your Mac typed or pasted in the field, like ~/Downloads/report.pdf, opens the file instead of searching for it.
Smoother with sync on
With sync on, picking a tab or an agent's step no longer counts everything sync holds on the main thread, which could hold the window for seconds on a busy Mac.
Look's buttons
Auto, Light, Dark, ••• and the close button over a look's colors sit on a blurred plate, so they read over any color.
Pages full of frames
Pages with many frames, like ads and embeds, set up Yab's passwords and passkeys only where a frame has a box for them, and only once per change of your list.
Changed
Sites' picture in picture
A site's own Picture-in-Picture button, as on X, puts its video in the system's Picture in Picture window, as in Safari, and the page stays in its tab.
Fixed
A Yab window in a call
A Yab window can be shown in a call held in Yab, listed first among the windows, even without Screen Recording.
Passwords changed in sync
A password changed on a Mac just as sync wrote it, or written in late on a busy Mac, stays changed and reaches your other Macs.
Joining sync again
A Mac removed from sync can join again.
Quitting with an agent at work
⌘Q while an agent works puts your tabs to sleep at once instead of leaving them running until it's done, and a task waiting on you no longer keeps Yab running in the background.
Clicks on the page
Clicks on the page, the address and Developer Tools reach them again; an earlier 0.0.17 build could lose them.
Bitwarden passkeys
Bitwarden's passkey prompt opens in a small window of its own, as in Chrome, and closes once you pick a passkey, where each request opened another Bitwarden tab and the sign-in never finished.
Frozen tabs
When WebKit's drawing process stops answering, Yab restarts it by itself and your pages draw again, where a tab you picked kept showing the one before and pages never loaded.
⌥⌫ in the field
⌥⌫ in the field takes off the address it was completing, then the word before the cursor, as in Chrome.
Devices that answer only https
A router's or phone's page that answers only over https opens, where typing its address gave "The site won't accept connections".
Look beside the sidebar
With the sidebar hidden and brought out over the page, Edit Look opens beside it instead of over it, and the sidebar stays out while you use the card.
