Added

  • ⏱️ Inactivity Return - Scroll to Top Toggle: New optional behavior for when already on start page

    • Added "Scroll to Top on Start Page" toggle (enabled by default)
    • When enabled and already on start page, smoothly scrolls to top instead of doing nothing
    • Improves user experience for single-page applications

  • 🔗 URL Filtering (Blacklist / Whitelist): Control which URLs users can navigate to within the kiosk WebView

    • Choose between Blacklist mode (block specific URLs) or Whitelist mode (allow only specific URLs)
    • Wildcard pattern support (e.g., *.example.com/*, freekiosk.app/download)
    • Patterns without protocol are automatically matched with http:// and https://
    • Main kiosk URL is always protected and cannot be blocked
    • Empty whitelist = strictest mode (only main URL allowed)
    • Works with both traditional navigation and SPA/client-side routing (pushState)
    • Optional visual feedback toast when a URL is blocked
    • Popup/new window URLs are also filtered
    • New settings section in WebView tab: "URL Filtering"

Fixed

  • 🔗 URL Filtering - Form Submits and JS Buttons: Fixed form submissions and JavaScript buttons being blocked in whitelist mode

    • Filter now compares origin + pathname instead of just origin
    • Same-page navigations (query params, hash changes, form submits) are always allowed
    • Trailing slashes are normalized (e.g., https://example.com and https://example.com/ are treated as identical)
    • Only navigation to different pages on the same domain requires whitelist match

  • 📡 NFC Monitoring Fix: Fixed "flicking back to blue screen" when NFC is enabled in kiosk mode

    • Foreground monitoring detected transient com.android.nfc package as a wrong app and triggered a relaunch loop
    • NFC system package is now filtered from monitoring checks only when NFC mode is active
    • No impact on monitoring behavior when NFC is disabled

  • 💾 Backup/Restore Missing Settings: Fixed 20 settings keys not being included in export/import backups

    • Added missing URL filtering settings (blacklist/whitelist lists and configuration)
    • Added missing screen scheduler, inactivity return, blocking overlays settings
    • Added missing WebView back button, camera position, return-to-settings preferences
    • PIN mode setting now properly backed up and restored
    • Ensures complete configuration portability across devices
