New features
Detailed syncing screen
The previous version of Daedalus introduced a more detailed view of the node syncing stages. However, as the screen only displayed one stage at a time, it gave the impression that the syncing progress reverted to zero. The screen has now been updated to display all stages, making it easier to track the syncing progress.
Send screen - minimum Ada required
Currently, when creating a new transaction, the ada field needs to be manually updated when the minimum amount changes. Now, the value increases automatically and a note is displayed at the bottom of the screen. If the user enters a lower value, a button will appear prompting an update to the input field.
New Token picker dialog
A new dialog enables easy selection of tokens. It is possible to select the first 30 tokens, filter by favorites, and search the tokens list.
Current delegation in the Stake Pools list view
Unlike the grid view, the Stake pools list view did not show the stake pools to which you are delegating. The screen has been updated and the stake pools used for delegation are now listed at the top.
Wallets menu search and sorting
The wallets menu has been updated to include the ability to search wallets and sort them alphabetically, by creation date, or balance.
