Opens instantly with zero impact on system memory. 📋 What's New v1.66 🔧 Internal maintenance release to keep version parity with Firefox; no functional changes on Chrome. v1.65 🐛 Fixed the clock and all widgets being unresponsive in 1.64. 🔍 Search now runs through Chrome's official Search API, using the default search engine you've chosen in your browser settings. v1.64 🧩 Major internal refactoring into ES modules for better performance and stability. 🛡️ Removed all innerHTML usage in favor of safe standard DOM APIs. v1.61 (June 2026) Lazy-loaded custom wallpapers.The more wallpapers you save, the more memory and time this saves (auto-rotation benefits too).
