SMBMounter V.1.7

🔄 Changelog

🆕 Version 1.x

• 1.7
  • 🔎 Added manual app update checks from the menu bar settings
  • 🔄 Added optional automatic update checks on every app launch and at daily intervals while the app is running
  • 📥 Available updates open in the browser for manual download and installation
  • 💬 Update dialogs close the menu bar popover and display centered icons and text in a compact layout
  • ℹ️ Added the installed app version to the menu bar view
  • 🌐 Added optional per-share IPv4 CIDR allowlists with multiple networks and add/remove controls
  • 🛡️ Auto-Mount and reconnect now pause when no active local IPv4 address matches an allowed network, or when an enabled policy is empty or invalid
  • 🔎 Network checks include active local interfaces, including VPN, and run again immediately before mounting; one matching address is sufficient
  • ⚠️ Network restrictions do not authenticate the server or guarantee the mount uses the matching interface; another network can reuse the same IP range
  • 🔓 Manual connections outside allowed networks remain possible after explicit confirmation for that attempt
  • 🔄 Saving share settings restarts pending mount attempts with the latest configuration and prevents stale attempts from overwriting the new status
  • ✅ Changing only network restrictions preserves existing mounted connections
• 1.6
  • 🔒 Prevented AppleScript injection by escaping mount URLs and validating server addresses before mounting (thanks to daveconf for the report)
  • 🔗 Mount URLs now use structured URL components and correctly encode share paths and credentials
  • 🛡️ Mount scripts are now passed through a private input pipe, keeping passwords out of process arguments
  • 🔐 Unified password storage, lookup, and deletion in the macOS Data Protection Keychain, with verified migration of existing login-keychain passwords
  • ⚠️ Added a warning for unencrypted WebDAV HTTP connections and documented server-impersonation risks on untrusted networks
  • 🎯 Disconnect and Open in Finder now use the actual mounted-volume path identified by server and share, fixing incorrect actions on identically named shares
  • ✅ Disconnect now verifies the resulting mount status instead of always marking the share as disconnected
  • 📦 Added Finder automation entitlements and a usage description for hardened-runtime distribution
  • 🧹 Excluded the source Info.plist and entitlements file from bundle resources and removed an ineffective sandbox exception from Info.plist
• 1.5
  • 🔐 Added support for UPN-style usernames such as abc@mydomain.local
  • 🔗 SMB/WebDAV credentials are now percent-encoded correctly when creating Finder mount URLs
  • ↕️ Mount entries can now be reordered via drag and drop, with the chosen order saved automatically
• 1.4
  • ✅ Fixed mounted-volume detection for shares whose names are substrings of existing volumes
  • 🔎 Mount status checks now compare remount URL host and share path exactly instead of using substring matching
  • 🧭 Shares with the same name on different servers can now be detected independently
• 1.3
  • ✅ Fixed mounted-volume detection for share names containing spaces, e.g. Emby Media
  • 🔎 Mount status checks now handle percent-encoded remount URLs such as Emby%20Media
  • 🔐 Improved SMB/WebDAV credential popup handling by allowing longer interactive Finder mount sessions
  • ⚡ Interactive mount sessions now stop early as soon as the share is detected as mounted
• 1.2
  • 🌐 Added WebDAV support alongside SMB
  • 🔐 WebDAV supports HTTP/HTTPS selection with automatic default ports
  • 🔌 Added configurable WebDAV port field for custom NAS/server setups
  • 🧭 WebDAV host handling supports plain hosts like server.local
  • 🔁 WebDAV connections use the same preflight, mount verification, disconnect, and auto-reconnect flow as SMB
  • 🧰 Improved menu bar icon fallback for menu bar manager compatibility
• 1.1
  • 🔧 Reworked mount pipeline for higher reliability (clean preflight -> mount -> verify flow)
  • ⏱ Finder mount now runs with hard timeout handling to prevent hanging mount jobs
  • 🧵 Mount attempts are processed sequentially to avoid race conditions between parallel connects
  • 🌐 Improved host resolution with stable SMB reachability checks and Bonjour/local fallback logic
  • 🔁 Added extra retry passes after a failed/disconnected attempt for better wake/reconnect behavior
  • 🛑 Manual disconnect now cancels pending retry/mount flow for that share more consistently
  • 🙈 No more Finder error popups on mount timeout (timeouts are handled silently in-app)
• 1.0
  • 💾 Auto-mount saved network shares at login
  • 🔁 Auto-Reconnect after connection loss or sleep/wake events
  • 🖥️ Modern SwiftUI menu bar interface with status indicators
  • 🧭 Protocol support: SMB
  • ⚙️ Secure Keychain storage for credentials
