-## What It Does
+## Features
 
-- Renders native top navigation and bottom tab chrome from JavaScript state.
-- Emits native intent events such as `navbarBack`, `navbarItemTap`, and `tabSelect`.
-- Captures WebView snapshots for native-feeling push, back, root, tab, and zoom transition shells.
-- Supports native tab styling controls such as Material You dynamic colors, label visibility, indicators, ripples, badges, and selected icons.
-- Writes CSS variables so web content can scroll behind native bars without being hidden.
-- Works with React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, Solid, vanilla JS, and any router that can call imperative methods.
+- Drive native top navigation and bottom tabs from JavaScript state.
+- Use system-owned iOS navigation bars, tab bars, tab gestures, and Liquid Glass rendering.
+- Emit native intent events such as `navbarBack`, `navbarItemTap`, and `tabSelect`.
+- Capture WebView snapshots for native-feeling push, back, root, tab, and zoom transitions.
+- Configure tab labels, selected icons, badges, indicators, ripples, tint colors, and dynamic colors.
+- Write CSS inset variables so web content can scroll behind native bars without being hidden.
+- Work with React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, Solid, vanilla JS, and any router that exposes imperative navigation.
 
-## What It Does Not Do
+## How It Fits
 
-- It does not create one native WebView per route.
-- It does not render React/Vue/Svelte icon nodes natively. Icons must be serializable descriptors such as SVG strings, SF Symbols, or native resource names.
-- It does not replace your router. JS still owns route state and web content rendering.
+- Your router still owns route state and page rendering.
+- The app still uses one full-screen WebView.

 ## Platform Notes
 
-- iOS uses UIKit `UINavigationBar` and `UITabBar`. iOS 26+ hosts the tabbar in a real `UITabBarController` so Apple owns the system Liquid Glass background; earlier versions use native translucent/material fallback styling.
-- Android uses an AppCompat `Toolbar` and a floating native tab capsule with edge-to-edge placement.
-- Web fallback does not draw native bars; it mirrors inset variables and events for development.
+- iOS uses UIKit `UINavigationBar`, `UITabBar`, and `UITabBarController` so the system owns tab interaction, Liquid Glass rendering, and safe-area behavior.
+- Android uses an AppCompat `Toolbar` and a native bottom tab surface with edge-to-edge placement.
