+# Efir 1.4.0
+
+## What's new
+
+- Map keyboard, media-key and pedal remotes to prompting actions. Learn buttons
+  from browser Gamepad devices, save mappings and use held forward/backward
+  nudges. Editing text and using dialogs do not trigger prompting shortcuts.
+- Connect several readers to one native server. Each screen keeps its own name,
+  font size, margins, top/bottom padding, marker position and mirror settings.
+  Word-based synchronization follows the same passage across different wraps.
+- Select a screen preview or see the readers together in a grid. Previews use
+  each screen's real geometry. Format guides shade the extra area when readers
+  have different aspect ratios, including 16:10 and 16:9.
+- Reconnect through saved screen links, select the timing leader, and keep a
+  useful frozen preview when a reader disconnects.
+- Support the project through the localized GitHub star button on the home page.
+
+## Resource improvements
+
+- Stream native desktop HTTP assets with backpressure instead of loading a
+  complete response into memory for every download.
+- Reuse reader geometry, avoid repeated screen-list DOM writes and omit duplicate
+  display metadata from frequent messages while keeping the existing update cadence.
+- Stop Gamepad polling when the controller is hidden or unfocused. Stop the home
+  page demo when hidden, outside the viewport or using reduced motion.
+- Release cancelled Android WebSocket tasks, cache native desktop translations,
+  and avoid duplicate macOS speech status messages.
+
+See the [shared web audit](../performance-audit.md) and
+[native resource audit](../native-resource-audit.md) for measured scenarios and
+remaining device checks. These measurements do not establish battery-life gains.
+
+## Downloads and installation
+
+| Platform | File | Requirements |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| macOS | `Efir-macOS.zip` | Apple Silicon or Intel, macOS 14+ |
+| Windows | `Efir-Windows-x64.zip` | Windows 10/11 x64, Microsoft WebView2 Runtime |
+| Linux x64 | `Efir-Linux-x64.deb` | Ubuntu 24.04+ or compatible dependencies |
+| Linux ARM64 | `Efir-Linux-arm64.deb` | Ubuntu 24.04+ or compatible dependencies |
+| Android | `Efir-Android.apk` | Android 8+ |
+
+Extract the entire Windows folder before launching `efir.exe`; keep `web/`,
+`speech/` and any accompanying DLLs together. Offline Vosk language models are
+selected separately in voice settings. An NSIS installer is also provided.
+
+The macOS app is ad hoc signed and not notarized. Follow the documented
+[macOS opening steps](../macos-distribution.md). Windows packages do not have an
+Authenticode signature.
+
+Android 1.4.0 starts a new release signing certificate because the original
+private key is unavailable. If 1.3.2 is installed, export scripts and settings,
+uninstall it, then install 1.4.0 and restore the export. Future APK updates will
+reuse the new key, which is kept outside the source checkout.
+
+`Efir-1.4.0-SHA256.txt` lists package checksums. Keyboard HID and browser Gamepad
+support depends on the signals the remote exposes; proprietary BLE, MIDI and
+vendor-app protocols are not automatically supported. Physical remote models
+still need individual checks.
