Changelog

May 4, 2026 · v3.4.0

  • feature
    New and updated model choices

    The model catalogue has been refreshed with newer GPT, Claude, Grok, DeepSeek, OpenRouter, Cohere, Google, Mistral, Fireworks, and Together options. The aim is simple: more current models, fewer dead ends, and better choices in one place.

  • improvement
    Auto Mode is better at picking the right model

    Auto Mode now uses fresh scorecard data to choose models more confidently for writing, coding, research, reasoning, and everyday chat. You can still pick a model yourself, but leaving it on Auto should now feel more reliable.

  • fix
    Fewer broken or unavailable model choices

    We removed duplicate model entries and turned off models that were failing live checks, so the picker should show fewer options that look available but fail when you try to use them.

  • improvement
    More reliable model routing

    Several providers now route through the most dependable connection available. That means fewer failed replies and a smoother experience when a model is best served through a partner route.

  • improvement
    A faster, more stable foundation

    We updated the AI engine and app runtime behind JustSimpleChat. This is mostly invisible, but it helps keep the app faster, more compatible, and easier to improve.

April 28, 2026 · v3.3.2

  • feature
    Updated OpenAI model lineup

    The OpenAI model list has been refreshed, including newer GPT models and better handling for reasoning settings. This should make the latest OpenAI options easier to find and use.

  • improvement
    Web search behaves more naturally

    The assistant is now better at deciding when web search is useful and when it should answer directly. Fresh information should still be searched, while normal questions should feel quicker.

  • fix
    Restored the intended visual styling

    A styling issue from the deployment pipeline was corrected, restoring the intended look and feel across the app.

April 26, 2026 · v3.3.0

  • improvement
    Smarter Auto Mode decisions

    Auto Mode now looks more carefully at what you are asking for before choosing a model. Simple tasks can use faster models, while harder reasoning and coding tasks can be sent to stronger ones.

  • improvement
    Better continuity during longer chats

    Routing improvements help the app keep context when conversations become more detailed, especially when a task needs several replies to complete properly.

  • fix
    Cleaner handling when models change provider

    Some models are available through more than one provider. JustSimpleChat now does a better job choosing the cleaner route, which helps avoid confusing duplicates and failed attempts.
