  • Latest version

    Version 1.2.3

    Released Dec 25, 2025 - 38.46 KB
    Works with firefox 115.0 and later
    • Fix: Improved Firefox focus reliability when toggling Focus page instead of address bar; if creating a new container tab fails, Better Start now falls back to a normal tab so the focus-stealing behavior continues to work.

    Version 1.2.2

    Released Dec 23, 2025 - 38.32 KB
    Works with firefox 115.0 and later
    • Fix: Hidden commands in Settings > Links can now be edited and deleted correctly, just like visible commands.
    • Fix: Hidden commands list now properly wires up edit/delete handlers alongside the main commands list.
    • Fix: The 0 localhost shortcut now correctly opens https://localhost:PORT (e.g. 0 3000 → https://localhost:3000), instead of inserting an extra slash.
    • Fix: Firefox Multi-Account Containers new tab shortcuts (e.g. Shift+Cmd+1) now preserve the selected container when Better Start focuses the page.
    • Fix: When Focus page instead of address bar is disabled and Open in new tab is off, search results and command links now navigate in the top-level tab instead of inside the iframe, preventing X-Frame-Options errors on sites like Figma.
