• feat: Show application status in Quick Tile title

  • Added a "Show Application Status in Quick Tile Title" switch in the settings UI.
  • Updated QuickTileService to observe this preference and dynamically change the tile's label or subtitle.
  • Refactored SharedPrefsManager to use the edit { ... } Kotlin extension for conciseness.

• fix PiP not working on WSA devices

  for some reason, pressing the back button on WSA didn't trigger onUserLeaveHint or onPictureInPictureUiStateChanged, so I added a callback to onBackPressedDispatcher to handle the case

Full Changelog: v1.8.0...v2.0.0

v1.8.0

• added show overlay option

  • added an option to show or hide an overlay with the remaining timeout on the top right/left of the screen
  • the overlay option may be required on some devices in order for the app to continue working in the background
  • if the overlay option is enabled and the app is closed from the recents menu, the timeout will be cancelled (seems that this is a restriciton from android, if there is an overlay enabled and the app is closed, everything gets terminated)

• fix allow while locked not working as expected

  fixed issue where the allow while locked toggle worked opposite to the intended behavior

• added configureable widget

  the widget's background can now be configured to be on or off

• bug fixes and code improvements

• fix service termination on some chinese OEM devices

  some chinese OEM devices have aggressive battery optimizations which would kill the service when the overlay option is enabled and the application is swiped away from the recent apps list or after some time has passed, the fix is a litte bit crude for now. the app saves the last remaining timeout to the device's storage every one second and then when the service is killed, it retrieves the last saved remaining timeout and then restarts the service. This may put a strain on the device's storage but can be avoided if the overlay is disabled while running on these devices

v1.7.5

preparing new release v1.7.5

v1.7.2

refix quick tile not updating on some devices

v1.7.1

• added widget preview image for launchers that don't support widget
  preview layout
