Stay up to date with the latest features, improvements, and bug fixes in Rova.

## \[2026.05.12] - Test Categorization

### Categories & Test Labelling

**Categories Management**

* New **Categories** page (`/categories`) 
* Create, edit, and delete categories with a name, optional description, and a 20-color preset picker
* Clicking the test count on a category navigates directly to the Test Library pre-filtered by that category

**Test Library**

* New **Categories** column in the test table — shows the first category pill; if more than one, displays `+N`
* New **Categories** multi-select filter dropdown alongside the existing Status and Timeframe filters; supports selecting multiple categories simultaneously
* **Quick Preview** modal now includes a Categories section showing all associated category pills

**Test Detail**

* Category pills are now displayed below the test status badge in view mode
* Edit form includes a searchable **category dropdown** — selected categories appear as removable color-coded pills; unselected categories are listed in a scrollable, filterable dropdown

## \[2026.05.03] - Continuity Mode & Mobile Grid

### Added

* **ABI-Based Routing**: Cloud emulators now automatically route APKs to the most efficient architecture (x86\_64 vs ARM64).

### Changed
