Thanks! I actually thought about it, but I really don't know where I can add that preview, and I have more questions about preview too. You can create issue from github for discussion.

Since there were API support in your app, may I request for Collections feature too.

Thank you for reporting this bug! I think I fixed your program closing issue in new version. Can you check it? And for saving can you check your options? "Save My Search When Quitting" will be checked for saving app state.

Nothing change at all sir. The program still crash after a while, collection searching is the same but modify the .json file can make collection work. About the saving session, I did check the save option, the program crashed instead of quitting. It just disappear from running process silently. I'm using windows 10.
