- NEW Rewrote the "Folder picker". Hopefully more compatible with all devices.
Folders are now sorted the same as in the rest of the app.
- BUGFIX Fixed some issues with the "local sync to a chrome folder" on 2.x
devices due to recent changes by Google. IMPORTANT: The first sync might generate a few duplicates either
locally and/or in the special folder in Chrome. You can delete these afterwards and they shouldn't come
back - just a part of a one-off migration. Thanks Big G.
- BUGFIX Fixed a crash with the new scheduled backups on 2.1 & 2.2 devices.
- BUGFIX One or two small bugs squashed elsewhere.
- INFO During June, ChromeMarks Lite hit the 500,000 download count! Thanks to
everyone for downloading and supporting my apps! Still more new features to come!
- INFO As usual, more details and further release notes on my blog at
www.howardb.com

- INFO Sorry for the long overdue update!
- NEW You can now choose to backup your Chrome bookmarks before and/or after
each sync. These are perfect for re-importing to Chrome if you accidentally delete some Chrome bookmarks.
Go into Settings, Backup Schedules to enable.
- BUGFIX Fixed an issue during syncing related to Jelly Bean devices due to an
undocumented change from Big G to the underlying SSL classes. Other apps on the Market are also crashing
due to the same change. Thanks Big G.
- BUGFIX The Folder picker has some issues on ICS devices. May be better..? Let
me know? Probably gonna be fully rewritten soon anyway...
- BUGFIX Fixed some bugs with devices passing non-standard "search" requests.
- BUGFIX Better compatibility with apps that share a link with text wrapped
around the url (i.e. Flipboard).
- BUGFIX Some errors in the Local Syncing function weren't being reported back
to the user and you never knew there was a problem. Have improved some of the error messages as well.
- BUGFIX Fixed an issue with the long press context menu not always showing the
right options.
- BUGFIX Google might have tightened up on some validation recently. Fixed an
issue with a failure on 2.x devices during the local bookmark sync copying >1 stock bookmarks into the
special Chrome folder.
- BUGFIX The "Mobile bookmarks" (or "Synced Bookmarks") now shows correctly in
the root folder - but you need to reset the app first or reinstall for this to take effect.
- BUGFIX One or two small bugs squashed elsewhere.
- MAINT Upgraded the protocols to the same as Chrome stable.
- REMINDER Please do email or tweet me if you have any problems or issues!
Making a comment in the Market means I can't get back to you (yet!) and help, but it takes just as long
to email and you're likely to actually get a fix as well.

- NEW If you have synced Search Engines, you can now search with them via the
built in search or the stock Search widget. ie. search for "wiki android" would search wikipedia for the
word "android" (if you have a Chrome Search Engine with the keyword "wiki")
- BUGFIX A change from Google altered the way timestamps work. May have meant no
new bookmarks being received for the last few weeks when a small number of people synced? You may need to
reset the app since Google has changed the way timestamps work. Proof available - always - for those of
you who think I'm making baseless claims! Thanks for your help, Jordan!
- BUGFIX Another change from Google started returning two new error codes that
have already started being returned to real users. Most likely related to crbug.com/114912. Added
appropriate messages. Thanks for your help, Dom!
- BUGFIX Fix for integrating bookmarks into HTC devices - HTC was using a different
way to sort bookmarks compared to every other Android device. Go figure. Thanks for your help, Steve!
- MAINT Many changes to the way the Search functionality worked before. Fixed some
bugs on ICS and also Eclair devices.
- MAINT Gestures might work better on higher dpi devices - let me know..?
- BUGFIX One or two small bugs squashed elsewhere.
- MAINT Improved the protocols following a recent beneficial change to Chrome 19.
Slight performance improvement..?
2012.02.26
- INFO Google changed something again. This time it's directly affecting users of
Chrome as well. If you have *suddenly* found empty folders, duplicate bookmarks, bookmark names changed then
goto http://crbug.com/114912 and read the info there.
- BUGFIX Fixed a "folder not found" error when adding or moving a bookmark into an
empty folder. Thanks Jordan and Denis for your help!
- BUGFIX Fixed a bug whereby a large number of bookmarks (>2000) would not be
decrypted. Thanks to Bjorn for your help!
- MAINT Updated Chrome protocols to the same as stable Chrome.
- MAINT Removed the default "New Bookmark" name when creating a new bookmark.
- MAINT Added a message for Honeycomb/ICS integration to suggest users clear
their browser before integrating otherwise the browser might show zero bookmarks synced by something
other than Google.
