Butler 4.3.1 released

March 4th, 2019 by Rob Griffiths

Butler 4.3.1 is out with only two changes—so no need to link to the release notes, but I will anyway. Change number one fixed a bug that affected Contacts-related Smart Items under macOS Mojave. Change number two fixed a double-word typo in Butler’s Preferences that must have existed for years—thanks, Bill E. for noticing this one!

You can get the new version by using the in-app updater, or by downloading a new version from the Butler page.

Moom 3.2.14 released

January 31st, 2019 by Rob Griffiths

Moom 3.2.14 is out with some minor fixes—you can read the gory details on the release notes page.

One fix of note is that Moom should now work with apps that use Electron’s new version 4 release, such as Discord. (You’ll have to hover near the top of the green button to see Moom’s pop-up palette, as the invisible button we’re detecting isn’t perfectly aligned with the visible green button.)

Direct users can update from within the app or download a full version of the app from our site; App Store users should see a Moom update in the App Store app.

Witch 4.3.2 released

January 31st, 2019 by Rob Griffiths

Witch 4.3.2 is out. There aren’t a ton of changes in this version (release notes), but one of them could prove very useful: Witch’s status menu item will now tell you when secure input mode is enabled. (To see this, you need to have at least one switcher enabled in the menu bar.)

Why would you want to know this? Because if you have Witch set to use Command-Tab, we can’t capture those keys when secure input mode is active, and you’ll see the stock macOS switcher instead. Now Witch can (usually) tell you which app invoked secure input.

We also squashed a bug that caused some Chrome tabs not to respond to the ‘w’ key.

Updates are available within the Witch System Preferences panel, or you can just download a full new version from our site.

Desktop Curtain 3.0.9 released

January 31st, 2019 by Rob Griffiths

Desktop Curtain 3.0.9 is out with some minor changes and a fix for an occasional crashing bug for Mac App Store users (full release notes).

Direct customers should see an update available within the app (or they can download the full version directly from our site), and App Store customers should see the update in the App Store app.

Leech 3.1.3 released

December 18th, 2018 by Rob Griffiths

Leech 3.1.3 is out now; this is primarily a bug fix release—see the release notes for the gory details.

There is, however, one new addition to the Safari extension: You can specify a regular expression to help filter matches when using the extension’s “download all links” feature. You set the expression on Leech’s Advanced tab, and Leech then applies the filter so that only matched items are downloaded. (There are a couple examples of how to use it in the help file.)

App Store users should see the update in the App Store app; direct users can update in-app, or by downloading a new copy of the app from the Leech web page.

Butler 4.3 released

December 18th, 2018 by Rob Griffiths

Butler 4.3 is out now, with some bug fixes and a couple new features:

  • Chrome bookmarks can now be imported.
  • Deactivate defined hot corners by clicking the active radio button; it will deselect.

Check the release notes for all the details. You can get the new version via the in-app updater, or by downloading a fresh copy of the app from the Butler web page.

Witch 4.3.1 released

November 8th, 2018 by Rob Griffiths

Witch 4.3.1 is out. As with today’s Moom update, this is primarily a bug fix release…and also like today’s Moom update, Witch also gets a nice new icon. (You may not notice when looking at Witch in System Preferences, as it’s much smaller there.)

As always, you’ll find a full list of changes in the release notes. In today’s release, Witch gains support for Mojave’s Dark Mode (yes, just like Moom did, too), and we worked around an issue switching between Chrome tabs and windows across displays and/or when using full screen windows. We also fixed a memory leak that was affecting some users.

Check for the update in-app via About tab in Witch’s settings, or just download a new copy of the app from the Witch web page.

Moom 3.2.13 released

November 8th, 2018 by Rob Griffiths

Moom 3.2.13 is out. This is primarily a bug fix release, though you may spot a new icon if you’ve got a keen eye…or if you just glance over to the right a bit.

As always, you’ll find a full list of changes in the release notes; other than the icon change, Mojave’s Dark Mode users should see some improvements with Moom 3.2.13. We also worked around a change in iTunes that prevented Moom from moving or resizing the iTunes window under certain conditions.

Direct customers can check for the update in-app via the menus or preferences (or just download a new copy of the app from the Moom web page). App Store users should see the update in the Mac App Store app soon, if not already.

Butler 4.2.3 is out

November 4th, 2018 by Rob Griffiths

Butler 4.2.3 is out, with a number of minor changes and one notable new feature: You can now assign names to plain text smart items, making them easier to find and organize. We also fixed an incompatibility with macOS 10.8 and 10.9. You can see all the details in the full release notes.

We’ve updated a number of our apps…

October 3rd, 2018 by Rob Griffiths

Following on the heels of Butler, Keymou, Moom, and Witch, we’ve updated the rest of our main app suite (excluding Name Mangler). As always, you can find the updates within the app or by downloading a new version (direct customers), or in the Mac App Store app (App Store customers). Here’s a little bit about what’s new in each app…

Desktop Curtain 3.0.8

Some behind the scenes changes, and a fix for an annoying bug that could cause Desktop Curtain to stall for a few seconds after clicking a Desktop-covering curtain. [Release Notes]

Leech 3.1.2

We’ve rewritten the Leech extension to work with the new rules of Safari 12, and added support for Full Screen and Split View modes. [Release Notes]

Resolutionator 1.1.2

Fixed a long delay before the menu appeared for those using dynamic desktop images in Mojave, and Resolutionator now supports Dark Mode in macOS Mojave. [Release Notes]

Time Sink 2.0.1

We’ve added a checkbox so you can include windows from menu bar apps, fixed a bug that broke Time Sink on 10.9.5, and the Escape key can now be used to cancel interval dragging in the Activity Report window. [Release Notes]

Usher 1.1.17

Yes, it’s no longer for sale, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t get updated. This update adds more fields to the CSV export, you can search for ‘or more’ star ratings by adding a plus (***+), and we fixed a preview-related crash when previewing a huge number of movies. And oh yes, if you use Smart Playlists with subdivisions, try selecting more than one subdivision—notice the search bar now lets you see the Union and Intersection of those selections. [Release Notes]

All of these updates are live now, though App Store customers may not see them just yet—but they should show as available very soon now.
