What's New in AutoFlow

Latest features, improvements, and fixes.

v4.2July 4, 2026LATEST

Instagram Extractor Fix & Smart Retry Engine

✨ Highlights

  • Instagram Extractor resilience — restricted and private Instagram posts now return clear, user-friendly error messages instead of raw technical errors
  • Smart retry engine — failed generations now click the DOM retry button (up to 3 attempts) instead of re-submitting the entire prompt, saving time and credits
  • Whop email mismatch prevention — a visible warning on registration and upgrade buttons reminds users to use the same email on Whop and AutoFlow for automatic Pro activation

🔧 Improvements

  • Increased MAX_RETRIES to 3 with a new VERIFY_MAX_RETRIES constant for finer retry control
  • MediaID capture reliability improved during the verification loop
  • Backend now categorizes Instagram errors into 'Restricted Content' vs 'Server Block' with actionable guidance
  • Upgrade button shows a confirmation alert before redirecting to Whop checkout
v4.0June 22, 2026

Official v4.0 Production Release

✨ Highlights

  • Major version release for the AutoFlow Chrome extension
  • Clean zip packaging for Chrome Web Store and direct site downloads

🔧 Improvements

  • Upgraded manifest and package versioning configurations
v3.6June 19, 2026

Cancelled Video Rescue & API Verification Fix

✨ Highlights

  • Fake Cancel Rescue — cancelled videos that actually exist on Google's CDN are now automatically detected and saved instead of being re-submitted or lost
  • CSP-Safe API Checking — rewrote the active status check to work with Google's Content Security Policy, fixing the 'API credentials not captured' timeout that broke verification
  • Universal DOM Tiebreaker — when the API cache shows stale 'generating' status but tiles are already settled, the bot now immediately routes to recovery in all modes (previously Full mode was stuck looping)

🔧 Improvements

  • CDN URL verification now runs on both 'no API data' and 'no retry button' paths, catching all fake cancel scenarios
  • Race condition fix between API cache updates and status check responses using cache confirmation polling
  • Verification rounds resolve in 1–2 rounds instead of looping through all 12 when tiles are already settled
v3.5June 16, 2026

Stuck Wait Loop Fix & Scroll Optimization

✨ Highlights

  • Robust Tag-Agnostic Icon Detection — updated generation tile parsing to support new Google Flow span elements, preventing completed items from getting falsely stuck in generating status.
  • Grid Scroll Optimization — wait loop now checks settles status directly via DOM and performs scroll confirmations exactly once, eliminating continuous scrolling.
  • Recovery Scan Optimization — removed redundant page scrolling blocks from recovery scan, cutting recovery checking time in half.

🔧 Improvements

  • Bundled build optimizations and bumped manifest version to 3.5 for Chrome Web Store publishing.
v3.4June 14, 2026

Zero-Intervention Reliability & CORS Resolution

✨ Highlights

  • Safety Policy Failures Classification — automatically identifies policy and safety blocks to instantly skip them without wasting retries
  • Exact Failure Reasons — sidepanel's Failed Generations section now displays the specific reason why a prompt failed (e.g. policy violations or server errors) alongside its text
  • CORS Redirect Bypass — redesigned network media verification using manual redirect tracking, resolving Chrome extension cross-origin blockages

🔧 Improvements

  • Stuck queue mitigation — 30-second API staleness detector triggers active refreshes and DOM tiebreakers to prevent queue stagnation
  • Automated queue-to-download pipeline robustness enhancements
