    v2.4.0

    OAuth Secret Rotation & Bug Fixes

    Highlights

    • Rotate an OAuth app's client secret without deleting and re-registering the app
    • Magic-link sign-in now resumes your pending gift search instead of landing on the homepage
    • 7 reliability and UX fixes across the gift finder, preferences, favorites, and people

    All Changes

    • New
      OAuth secret rotation — use the rotate action on any OAuth app card to replace its client_secret instantly; redirect URIs, scopes, and all user authorizations stay intact and the old secret is revoked the moment rotation completes
    • Fixed
      Magic-link sign-in now picks up where you left off — a pending gift search is resumed after you click the link, instead of dropping you on the homepage
    • Fixed
      Preferences: a failed save now reverts to your previously saved value instead of resetting to a hardcoded default
    • Fixed
      Clearing all saved people now requires confirmation before deleting
    • Fixed
      Gift finder: occasion-based relationship suggestions now surface correctly when you pick an occasion first
    • Fixed

    • Fixed
      Favorites: incomplete gift entries no longer cause the favorites list to go blank
