Added

• Compress size estimate: original vs. compressed size and percentage saved
• Watermark color picker, including template watermarks
• In-app text reader for PDF-to-Text history entries
• Viewer: find-in-document, print, pinch zoom, and page-jump controls (#7)

Improved

• Redesigned password prompt with show/hide and inline errors

• Recent Activity now opens the History tab instead of a blank overlay (#24)
