What's new in v0.4.0
Auto-updater is here. This is the last version you have to download manually — going forward, PointerSense checks for updates on launch and offers to install them in-place.
Auto-update
- On launch, PointerSense silently checks
https://github.com/Anuragh33/PointerSense-site/releases/latest/download/latest.jsonfor a newer version. - When a new release is available, the Overview tab shows an indigo "Update available — vX.Y.Z" banner with a single Install & restart button.
- Updates are minisign-signed; the public key is embedded in the binary so a tampered update bundle is rejected.
- You can also manually check at any time via the "Check for updates" button in Overview.
Migrating from older versions
Once v0.4.0 is installed, future releases (v0.4.1, v0.5.0, etc.) will arrive automatically. Users on v0.3.0 or earlier will need to do this download one last time.
Requirements
