Some users reported a few issues in response to Sleipnir 4.1.1 released yesterday. Included in those issues were some that are very urgent such as mouse click operations not working and Sleipnir not starting up so we released Sleipnir 4.1.2 with fixes to these.
The fix issues details are as below.
[Fixed Issues] - Application freezing when using mouse operations in certain environments fixed - Sleipnir not starting up in certain environment fixed - Scrolling using the mouse wheel in certain environments not working fixed
Thank you to everybody who reported these issues and helped us find the causes. We are sorry for the inconvenience this has caused, but please can you upgrade to Sleipnir 4.1.2.
In Sleipnir 4.1.1 we mainly overlooked mouse and keyboard related processing that was requested by many users, and made modifications so that you can use them with more Sleipnir-like mouse and keyboard touch operations.
In the Google + function for linking Sleipnir with various Web services, we have detected unauthorized access when authenticating.
When unauthorized access has been detected, it is essential to reset your Google account password.
We are currently working hard to fix the problem. However, until it has been fixed we will keep Google+ in the Fenrir Pass Connect linking service removed.
This issue is occurring due to a technical situation where the IP address when authenticating is becoming that of the Fenrir Pass Connect server. There is actually no unauthorized access taking place.
We are sorry for the all the inconvenience this is causing.

So for example, you can now open Twitter links in Sleipnir Mobile in the background!
Users may already have noticed that due to iOS system specifications, you can not usually open links from other apps in Sleipnir Mobile. However, this new function solves this issue.

This release has not been like normal, but today is the official release of the true Sleipnir 4 (4.0.0) Web browser.
Since releasing Technology & Design Build ～ Final Build, not only from Sleipnir 2 users, but also users switching from Sleipnir 1 and other browsers are also showing high praise. So, We would love for users using older versions and users who moved to other browsers to try out this latest version.
This is to let you know that version 4.1 of Sleipnir 4 for Mac, the ultimate in advancement of the Web browser not needing an address bar has been released!
The new “Portal Field” in the latest version is the cutting-edge search function for Sleipnir 4 for Mac that can find the sites you want to open from typing just 4 characters.
The narrowed-down page results are organized with a unique design by site, achieving a compact, easy to view suggestions list that surpasses the previous address bar.
We think that the original way where suggestions of pages from the same site are place at the top after opening is not pretty at all. From now on, please try instantly opening the site you were thinking of in the shortest possible time with “Portal Field”.
This is to notify the release of Sleipnir 3 for Windows Final Build.
The final release of Sleipnir 3 for Windows?
……? This release will continue onto Sleipnir 4 for Windows, with its main purpose being to show to the users of Sleipnir a little bit about what Sleipnir will be like from now on.
As a result of being supported by the countless number of users for its ease of use using tabs and mouse gestures from the one contender age of Internet Explorer, we would like to show what Sleipnir – the browser occupying an overwhelming share of the Japanese market, will be like from now on through the product itself. Not only for users of Sleipnir 2 and Sleipnir 3, but we also want Sleipnir to be the browser that users can fill the gap in other Web browsers.
Please try it out yourself to see if it is a product you feel is going in the right direction.
This time we have prepared an installer and Zip version for which you will receive a update notification if you are using Sleipnir 3 for Windows or the Technology and Design Build.
That we were able to work on so many different improvements in the course of one week is thanks to your feedback. Check after reading and see if your request made it in.
Sleipnir 4 has also been released in the Mac App Store. Due to the review requirements, however, the version is 4.0.

This is a Sleipnir 4 for Windows Technology & Design Build release announcement.
In today’s release of Sleipnir for Windows we have focused on implemented the most important functions that have been requested by users. We are dealing with matters that we could not do with Sleipnir 3 to provide users of Sleipir 2 and Sleipnir and users of other Web browsers who feel that there is something lacking a Web browser that they feel they can choose.
This release is restricted to being a blog only archive version, but it is of a quality that can be used for your everyday browsing. (The release of the installer version and the update notification to users already using Sleipnir 3 is scheduled to be released next time)
