Updates from inside the apps. From this version on, Untether looks for a new release at start
and every 12 hours and offers it right where you are:
- Mac: a banner in the window, Install. It downloads the new version, checks that it is signed
like the one running, puts it in place and restarts. - Phone: a card in the app, Install. It downloads the APK and hands it to Android's installer,
which asks once whether Untether may install apps, then to confirm the update. - What's new opens the release page.
This release itself still has to be installed by hand.
Your hotspot stays yours. New installs keep the hotspot name and password set in Android (Use
Android's hotspot settings is on by default). Randomize gives the hotspot a new random name and
password and opens the pairing window for the Mac.
Updating
- Phone: install
Untether-0.2.4.apkover 0.2.3. The app now asks for internet access, for the
update check. Pairing and settings stay. - Mac: put Untether from
Untether-0.2.4.dmgin Applications (self-signed: on macOS 15 and newer
allow it once in System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway). If you built Untether
yourself before, replace it with this one: in-app updates only accept a release-signed app.
Play Protect may still block the APK as harmful; its verdict is tied to the app's package on
Google's side. Tap Install anyway; the APK is built by GitHub Actions straight from this
repository.
