The pop-up browser extension is back! It was a tough decision, but we've kept the strongest features from the side panel so you get the best of both worlds. See what else is new below.
The Browser Extension Pop up is back
The extension now opens directly on the page you're on, with its own state for every tab.
- Every tab gets its own card, chat, and TTS session, so switching tabs no longer interrupts what you were doing
- You can now summarize multiple pieces of content at the same timeby opening the extension on different pages simultaneously
- You can still resize the extension to whatever width works best for you
- The extension stays open by default as you navigate within a tab
- New keyboard shortcuts: Alt+Rto open or close the extension,Alt+Sto save the current page,Escto close
- Consistent behaviour across Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Arc
- Fixed an issue on Edge where clicking "Open in app" didn't actually open the app
- Fixed a Firefox issue where chat responses could stop streaming partway through
Smarter AI chat with multi-step actions
You can now ask the AI to do several things at once (for example, "create three tags and assign them to all my cards") and approve or reject each part of the plan individually.
- Approving an action now reliably updates your library straight away
- Refreshing the page no longer resets approvals back to pending
A faster, calmer reader and notebook
- No more jerky scroll when long articles load more content
- Fixed a bug where some PDFs opened to a blank reader
- Bulk PDF uploads now automatically retry any files that fail, so you no longer have to re-upload them by hand
- New, empty notebooks open instantly instead of flashing a loading screen first
- The notebook title input no longer loses focus while you're typing
- Right-click on chat responses and AI action blocks now opens the Recall editor menu instead of the browser's default menu
Mobile and iOS improvements
- Fixed an iOS crash when using "Take a photo" to add content
- Long-press to multi-select on the items list is now reliable on touch devices, instead of sometimes opening the card you tapped
- On mobile, tapping the minimised TTS player to bring it back up now works reliably
- Fixed a flow where pressing back too many times after using the iOS / Android share sheet could re-create the content you just added
- General improvements to back-button and swipe-back behaviour so dialogs, menus, and modals close consistently
Other fixes
- Tapping a card that's still importing no longer redirects you back to the home screen
- Updated our docs to match the file types and content sources Recall currently supports. Check out the long list of content we now support.
