The iPad layout on Android tablets, a built-in log, and a fix for playback freezing.

• Tablets look like iPad. On an Android tablet the tabs sit in a capsule at the top, in the same row as the back button and the page's buttons. The sidebar button opens a liquid glass sidebar with your tabs and your account. In landscape the page moves over for it; in portrait it slides over the page.
• Hero art and shelves under the sidebar. Home and title pages run on under the sidebar like they do on iPad: the hero art carries on behind the glass, and shelves like Continue Watching scroll beneath it.
• Edit your tabs from the sidebar. Tap Edit to show or hide tabs with the circle and drag them into a new order. Changes sync to your other devices, like Settings → Interface.
• A built-in log. Settings → Log shows what Zelefin did and what went wrong: sign-ins, playback, downloads, and requests that failed. Read it, search it, or send it when you report a problem. Passwords, tokens, and API keys are never written to it.
• No more freezing at playback. Starting a video, or tapping the player while a hard file (like a 10-bit anime) loads, could freeze the app until Android offered to close it. The player no longer waits on the decoder.
• Opens without the server. If your server can't be reached, Zelefin still opens so you can watch your downloads.
• Request page logos. Discover titles you have in your library show the library's logo. Add your own TMDB API key in Settings → Plugins to get logos for everything else.
• Discover rows. Seerr's network and studio cards use your accent color, and Ombi gets genre rows.
• Tab order stays put. Reordering tabs or Home rows could snap back when a sync from the server landed at the same moment.
• Removed titles. If Now Playing points at a title the server no longer has, Zelefin now says so and drops it instead of showing a 404.
• Sheets cover the page's buttons. The back and More buttons no longer float over the Request, Arrange, Sort, and Filter sheets.

Version picking, debrid sources, and Discover title pages.

• Pick a version. Movies and episodes with more than one file (Jellyfin's Multiple Versions, Emby sources, or Remux debrid streams) get a version button beside Play, a Version item in each episode's menu, and a Version page in the player's More menu that switches files from the same spot.
• Readable debrid sources. Each version shows its release name with its size, resolution and codec, HDR, Atmos or 5.1, and audio languages. Remux sources keep their tag, so "[RD+]" (cached, starts right away) stands apart from "[RD download]" (not cached yet).
• Downloads use your pick. Downloading a title or a whole season saves the version you picked for each episode, or the first one if you didn't pick.
• Remux search. Search finds Remux shows again; one show in the results used to empty the whole list.
• Discover title pages. Tapping a Discover title opens a page like a movie's, with trailers, cast, recommendations, and Request. Titles already on your server say View in Library.
• Cancelling a download now just stops it instead of saying it couldn't download.
• X close buttons replace every Close button, and the sheets in a title's More menu match your accent color.
• No sleeping mid-show. The screen stays on while a video plays.
• Lighter liquid glass. The glass now defaults to Frost 1 and Darkness 50%. If you set your own, you keep it.

Ombi requests, easier server addresses, and new icons.

• Ombi support. Sign in to Ombi instead of Seerr in Settings → Plugins, then search, browse Discover, and request movies and shows.
• Requests know what's already requested. Opening a title that's already requested shows whether it's waiting for approval or approved, instead of offering Request again. This works for Seerr too.
• Admins manage requests anywhere. Admins can approve, decline, or change the quality and folder of any pending request right from the request sheet.
• Any server address works. Server, Seerr, and Ombi addresses accept any capitalization of http:// or https://, LAN IPs, .local names, Tailscale addresses, and reverse-proxy paths. Typed without http://, local and Tailscale addresses fall back to plain HTTP when HTTPS doesn't answer; public addresses stay on HTTPS.
• New default accent. The accent color now defaults to the periwinkle from the sign-in screen. If you picked a color before, you keep it.
• Discover in your colors. Switches, buttons, pickers, and the request sheet on Discover follow your accent color and its tinted backgrounds.
• Library icons. YouTube and Recordings libraries get their own icons, and libraries with Anime in the name can pick from a set of anime character icons in Settings → Interface.

Subtitle and skip-time fixes.

• Your audio and subtitle picks stick. The languages you choose are remembered for each show, so the next episode, auto-play, and quality changes start on them instead of the title's defaults.
• Image subtitles resize. PGS and VobSub subtitles now follow the subtitle size setting.
• Subtitle Style fits the track. For image subtitles, which can't be recolored, Text Color and Background are hidden and only the size shows.
• Subtitles move above the controls. While the player controls are showing, subtitles that would sit under the progress bar move just above it, then go back down.
• More skip times. When the server has some skip times for a title but not all, Zelefin fills in the missing kinds (recap, intro, credits, preview) from TheIntroDB. When TheIntroDB says its daily limit is used up, Zelefin stops asking until it resets.

Skip recaps, intros, credits, and previews, plus a round of fixes.

• Skip Recap, Intro, Credits, and Preview. Each has its own button and its own auto-skip setting. Jellyfin and Silo read them from the server (Intro Skipper or the TheIntroDB plugin), and for titles the server has nothing for, including everything on Emby, Zelefin asks TheIntroDB directly. You can turn that off in Settings.
• Skip markers for everyone. Non-admin Jellyfin users now get skip buttons too.
• Plugin status. Intro Skipper and TheIntroDB show as Enabled, Disabled, or Not Installed.
• Notifications stop when you sign out. Signing out, removing an account, or switching Silo profiles now stops that account's Emby and Silo notifications, and leftovers from earlier sign-outs are cleaned up.
• Seerr requests without Sonarr or Radarr. Requests are saved for an admin to see even when nothing is set up to download them.

Fixes signing in when the server address has a capital letter at the start.

• Addresses like `Https://jellyfin.example.com` or `HTTP://...` used to fail with "HTTP host unreachable", because Zelefin added a second `https://` in front. Any capitalization works now, and slips like `https:/` or `https//` are fixed for you.

Fixes buffering when you watch over a VPN like Tailscale.

• Auto quality no longer assumes you're home just because your server has a home-network address (like 192.168.x.x). Over Tailscale or another VPN, Zelefin now tests the connection first and picks a quality it can handle, instead of streaming a 4K original that stalls.
• At home on Wi-Fi or Ethernet, nothing changes: it still plays the original right away.
