v1.5.1

[SHIINASAMA]

WiFi Lens v1.5.1

WiFi Lens 1.5.1 bundles the IEEE MAC vendor database directly into the app, reworks Network Self-Check into a three-stage diagnostics pipeline, adds a first-run welcome and lifecycle guidance, and ships a round of window-management fixes and Apple-style UI polish.

Highlights

Bundled MAC Vendor Database

• Vendor names are now bundled with the app, so the network table shows device vendors immediately, with or without a downloaded vendor list.
• The bundled column stays available when downloads are unavailable, and update dates are derived from the official IEEE sources.

Network Self-Check Improvements

• Reworked Network Self-Check into a three-stage pipeline with a grouped diagnostics workbench.
• Proxy routing through virtual network interfaces (VPN/TUN) is now recognized.
• Connectivity checks now use Apple's authoritative captive-portal probe.
• Probe matching is case-insensitive, tunnel detection is better bounded, and check summaries are clearer.

First-Run Welcome and Guidance

• Added a welcome screen on first launch with onboarding guidance.
• Added lifecycle guidance moments: diagnostics completion, export success banner, and an OSS invitation card.
• Added Debug-only manual testing controls.

Window Management and Interface Polish

• Enforced the 820×620 main-window minimum size and stopped hidden pages from forcing an oversized window.
• Detail pages and sidebar badges now adapt to narrow window widths.
• Apple-style UI polish across core surfaces, with more defensive globe rendering.

Reliability Improvements

• Hardened Network Self-Check probe orchestration and bounded tunnel probe waits.
• Bundled vendor data loads once and is no longer re-fetched per view.
• Replaced polling and watchdog waits with event-driven synchronization in tests.

Other Changes

• The release DMG now packages WiFi Lens.app correctly inside WiFiLens.dmg.
• Localized the remaining hardcoded strings across the app.

This release covers the open-source (OSS) edition; Pro-specific updates ship separately.
