Reopening the panel automatically restores your last active page (such as Reminders, Archive, or specific custom labels) so you do not have to navigate from scratch. πŸŒ€ Smooth Loading Screen Instead of showing a lagging grey screen while Google Keep loads, Sidekeep now instantly displays a clean loading indicator while preparing your notes seamlessly in the background. Thank you to everyone who reported the recent issues. We heard you loud and clear, and pushed an update to fix the two biggest bugs: πŸ› οΈ What's Fixed: πŸ›‘ No More Random New Tabs: A technical bug was causing the settings page to open in a new tab every time your browser updated in the background. Please know this was a coding mistakeβ€”not an intentional attempt to spam you! It is now 100% fixed and will never bother you again. βœ‚οΈ Copy & Paste Restored: A recent Chrome security update blocked clipboard access, which broke your Ctrl+C and Ctrl+X keyboard shortcuts. We have updated our permissions policy so copying and pasting works flawlessly inside your notes once again! πŸ“ž Support & Contributing β‡’ Report Issues: Found a bug?
