Release Notes
What changed in each version of PasteFlow.
v1.0.1 — UAT candidate
This release is implemented locally and is the current QA/UAT candidate. It has not yet been promoted to the stable Chrome Web Store listing.
- Pause -> toggle Human Mode off -> resume — if you pause an active run, turn Human Mode off, and resume, the remaining text now continues with plain timing instead of keeping Human-style typo/correction behavior from the earlier plan.
- Activation retry — PasteFlow now retries activation silently for short backend propagation delays, reducing false “key not found” errors right after purchase.
- Recovery and progress feedback — partial runs recover more cleanly, with clearer progress feedback while typing.
v1.0.0 — Initial Release
This is the first public release of PasteFlow.
Typing engine
- Character-by-character typing into Google Docs, Word Online, Excel Online, web forms, and generic contenteditable fields
- Speeds + Human Mode — four base presets (Safe, Slow, Normal, Fast) plus a separate Human timing row; Human Mode is a toggle that layers mistakes and corrections on top of your base speed when the field is safe (automatically skipped on
password/email/url/number/telinputs and on SharePoint-hosted Word/Excel Online frames) - Google Docs — typed through the content-script web-editor pipeline using the Docs MAIN-world sink bridge; success is verified per character (caret motion alone never counts as a commit), and bridge-commit failures are surfaced as explicit errors rather than silent fake-success
- SharePoint-hosted Word/Excel Online: WAC frame detection for corporate tenants
- Pause / Resume mid-run — suspend at the current character, resume exactly where you left off
- Stop at any time with the Stop button or Escape key from the destination tab
Composer View
- Typing progress bar — thin gradient bar shows estimated completion during a run
- Keyboard shortcuts — Cmd/Ctrl+Enter to start, Cmd/Ctrl+. to stop, Cmd+Shift+I to inspect, Cmd+Shift+R to refresh
- Inspect Target — probes the destination and reports mode, element type, and iframe status
- Diagnostic Probe — detailed diagnostic JSON for troubleshooting (Advanced Diagnostics)
- Destination dropdown — auto-follows the active browser tab with favicon display; selecting a tab focuses it in the browser
- Snippets — save frequently used texts by name; reload them instantly with the dropdown
- What’s New banner — shown once after each silent extension update
- Build number — visible in the header (
