Changelog

6.5.7  -  Sep 28, 2026 Download

• Paging through results no longer searches for "TEMP_REPLACEME" on Google's lightweight pages (old browsers).
• Images on the lightweight page: the themed image page comes up the first time too (it could come up empty on a slow first visit), with each preview's real size.
• Gmail: when Gmail can't open an email itself (as in old browsers such as Firefox 52), Gplex reads the conversation from Gmail's print view and shows it in the period's style.

6.5.6  -  Sep 28, 2026 Download

• Google Docs (layouts before 2019): no more rounded corners anywhere. Menus, the Edit / wrap bar over a selected drawing or image, dialogs, bubbles, toolbars and chips are square, as Docs was then; radio buttons, switches and people's pictures keep their round shapes.
• Google Docs: the "Premium", "New" and "Updated" pills and dots in the menus are hidden.

6.5.5  -  Sep 28, 2026 Download

• Your account shows on Google's lightweight search and home pages (old browsers), which have no account button of their own: Gplex uses the account it last saw on google.com or in Gmail, and forgets it when you sign out.
• Gmail: opening an email waits up to 30 seconds behind the loading screen for Gmail to open it (slow computers, old browsers), and clicks the conversation directly if Gmail hasn't started opening it after 6 seconds. Before, Gplex stepped aside after a few seconds and showed Gmail's own page.

6.5.4  -  Sep 28, 2026 Download

• Gplex Legacy (Firefox 52): the Google Search and I'm Feeling Lucky buttons are centered under the search box again.
• Google's lightweight pages (old browsers, basic HTML): the Videos tab shows video results with thumbnails and durations, the Images tab shows Gplex's image page built from Google's thumbnails, and News uses the full width.
• Video results: the duration stays on the thumbnail when the description beside it is long.

6.5.3  -  Sep 28, 2026 Download

• New: Gplex Legacy, a build of Gplex Extended for old browsers such as Firefox 52 on Windows XP (see the Download page).
• Google's lightweight results page (the one old browsers and the basic HTML version get): each result now shows its real description instead of its title, the page's own links (Sign in, Privacy...) no longer appear as results, and the page uses the full width.
• The search box shows your search on pages where Google puts hidden fields before it.

6.5.2  -  Sep 28, 2026 Download

• Search results no longer come up short (3 or 7 of 10) when Google's page arrives slowly: Gplex waits for the whole page before reading the results. The knowledge panel's facts show every time too.

6.5.1  -  Sep 28, 2026 Download

• People also ask shows a real answer again: the quoted passage, its page and address, and "Search for" under it. Where Google's own answer is AI-written, the answer comes from the top ordinary web result instead.

6.5  -  Sep 28, 2026 Download

• People also ask, from Late 2015, in each period's style. AI-written answers are never shown.
• Knowledge panels work again (Google changed how the panel is built, and Gplex's had stopped appearing).
• Misspelled searches no longer lose most of their results; the line reads "Showing results for" as it used to.
• The AI Overview box no longer picks up People also ask questions.

6.4  -  Sep 28, 2026 Download

• New layout: Late 2016 (from 6 December 2016): the Material search page, everything else 2016.
