Improving Enact Browser UX
The user experience of a web browser is important because it directly affects how users interact with the internet and websites. In this release, we enhanced usability, performance, and efficiency of the browser.
- Support ‘pinch-to-zoom’ feature in the content area of a webview on touch screen.
- Add the ‘Reset to Default Settings’ option in the “Settings” page.
- Support custom user agent per domain to fix loading issue from the web server.
Enhancing Audio Environment
Audio Pre-processing Effect Chain
From this version, webOS OSE supports multiple audio processing simultaneously. Developers can apply multiple audio pre-processing algorithms (such as beamforming, Echo Cancellation Noise Reduction (ECNR)).
Bass Enhancement
Base enhancement algorithms and APIs are supported to provide a better audio experience. See com.webos.service.audio.
Upgrading Qt
Qt has been upgraded from v6.5.2 to v6.6.0 to improve graphics performance and stability. For more details about Qt, see the official blog post.
