A charge you can actually read. The battery on the resting pill and in the
top strip of every panel was the smallest thing Crest drew — a bar a few pixels
long, and a number set below every other piece of type on screen. It is bigger
now, and the part of the battery you have already used is drawn in behind it, so
what is left is a shape you can take in rather than a mark you have to measure.

Improved

  • The battery is drawn about a fifth larger, with its percentage set to match
    the rest of the notch instead of a size below it
  • The empty part of the battery is drawn in. At a third full you are now
    reading a gauge, rather than a short grey mark with nothing behind it to read
    it against
  • The resting pill has been rebalanced around the bigger badge, so the clock
    still sits dead centre and neither chip is crowded

Fixed

  • Crest starts with Windows again after being moved or reinstalled. If the
    startup entry was left pointing at a copy of Crest that is no longer there, it
    would quietly do nothing at sign-in. Crest now points startup back at itself
    the next time it runs
  • Nothing but an installed copy of Crest can put itself in your startup. On a
    machine that had ever run Crest from its source, sign-in opened a console
    window and a page reading "localhost refused to connect" instead of the notch —
    and installing Crest properly did not clear it
