Release Details
Use Beta on Mobile. You can now toggle to the Legend Beta directly from your mobile settings. Get early access to the latest features and help shape what's coming — flip it on anytime, and back off just as easily.
Edit Links on Mobile: Tapping a link on mobile now opens a clean bottom sheet for creating or editing it — no more broken flows or losing your cursor position. This works on both iOS and Android. We also fixed an issue where an invalid cursor selection could occur when saving a link from the sheet.
🔗 Open Links in Legend / System Browser. On desktop, wevb link can now be opened directly into the built-in Browser Pane with a modifier click. Shift+click opens in a new Browser Pane; check out the hover tooltips, which guide you so you always know which behavior to expect. Reported issue: Open regular links in Browser Pane
🗑️ Permanently Delete documents. Documents deleted from Trash are now removed from clients.
↔️ Resizable Overview Panel. The document overview panel on the left is now draggable — resize it to exactly the width you want, and Legend will remember your preference across sessions. Double-click the handle to reset to the default.
Android: Full Link & Mirror Support Links and mirrors now work fully on Android — creating, editing, and navigating them all behave consistently with iOS. Plugin links (such as Shortwave) are also clickable again in the mobile app. Reported issue: Creating links in Android app doesn't work Problem with plugin links (particularly Shortwave links) in Android
Fix: Keyboard Disappearing on Mobile. The on-screen keyboard was being dismissed unexpectedly when adding new items on mobile. This no longer happens — focus and keyboard state are maintained correctly through the add flow.
Fix: Stale Cut on Mobile. A bug that left stale text in the clipboard after cutting on mobile has been resolved. Cut operations now correctly clear and replace the clipboard content. Reported issue: Cutting item note text in Android mobile is cutting underlying item
Fix: Collapse Filter on Non-Text Filters. The "Collapse matches of filters" setting was only triggering when a text filter was active. It now correctly fires when icon- or tag-only filters are applied, so collapsing behaviour is consistent regardless of filter type. Reported issue: Apply "Collapse matches of filters" setting behavior to all filter changes
Fix: Virtual List Hang An edge case where the scroll position recalculation loop could hit an undefined value — causing the list to hang — has been fixed. Scrolling through large documents and pop-up panes should now stay responsive. Reported issue: Slowness when opening popup panes from the Find window
Fix: Board Removal from Folder. Removing a board from a folder was sometimes silently reverted on the next sync. The removal is now persisted correctly across clients.
