OpenWhisperer 2.0.1 — six themes
Open Whisperer now comes in six colour themes, chosen in Settings → General → Themes.
Themes
- Champagne (new default) — cream with champagne gold and a sky-blue tint
- Cream — the original look, and the only theme that follows your Mac's light/dark setting
- Light / Dark — neutral greys on white or near-black
- Pastel — soft blue and rose
- Sky — soft sky blue with a champagne accent
Settings, the window chrome and the dictation overlay all follow your choice. The five fixed themes hold their look whatever macOS is set to — each one says so under the picker — while Cream keeps tracking your system appearance the way the app always has.
The palettes are ports of the Authé design system, converted from OKLCH to sRGB.
Notes
- If you've never picked a theme, you'll move from Cream to Champagne on upgrade. Switching back is one click.
- The menu bar icon deliberately keeps following macOS rather than your theme, so it stays legible against a light or dark menu bar.
- Requires Apple Silicon, macOS 14+.
- Gatekeeper: as with previous releases this build isn't notarized. On first launch, right-click the app → Open, then confirm.
