+ Release: v3.3.4.1 (2016-03-27 19:30 Sun) +

+

+ The desktop app is a major release. It has a new autocomplete address bar, a new search system as well as minor parser fixes. +

+ +

+ If you haven't tried XOWA on Android, please give it a try. See https://github.com/gnosygnu/xowa/wiki/Android. +

+

+ Next release: v3.4.1 +

+

+ I've spent a lot of time on the search system for the past several weeks. I'm going to take a break and work on the following items for next week's release: +
