### Features
- **Open Instagram links in app (Safari extension)** — bundled Safari web extension (sideload IPA only). Enable in Safari → Extensions; instagram.com links open in the app.
- **Localization** — every user-facing string flows through a central translation layer. Globe button in Settings; missing keys fall back to English. Ships English only — see the "Translating RyukGram" section in the README to add more.
- **Action buttons** — context-aware menus on feed, reels, and stories (expand, repost, download, copy caption, etc.) with per-context default tap action and carousel/multi-story bulk download
- **Enhanced HD downloads** — up to 1080p via DASH + FFmpegKit with quality picker, preview playback, encoding-speed options, and 720p fallback
- **Repost**, **media viewer**, **media zoom** (long-press), **download pill** (frosted glass, stacks concurrent downloads)
- **Fake location** — overrides CoreLocation app-wide, map picker + saved presets, optional quick-toggle button on the Friends Map
- **Messages-only mode** — strips every tab except DM inbox + profile
- **Launch tab** — pick which tab the app opens to
- Full last active date in DMs — show full date instead of "Active 2h ago"

### Improvements
- Default tap action: added copy URL, repost, and view mentions options; dynamic menu generation per context
- Settings pages reordered: General → Feed → Stories → Reels → Messages → Profile → Navigation → Saving → Confirmations
- Fake location picker: native Apple Maps-style UI (search, long-press to drop pin, current location)
- Liquid glass floating tab bar + dynamic sizing
