Install: open OpenArc-0.2.3.dmg and drag Open Arc into Applications (Developer ID signed and notarized; Apple silicon, macOS 14+). Installed 0.2.x builds update through Open Arc ▸ Check for Updates….

Since 0.2.2:

  • Space switching by trackpad now follows your fingers: swipe to slide the Spaces, release past half a page or flick to switch, and the pages spring back otherwise. The scroll bar and hover cards hide during the swipe.
  • Extensions can be pinned: hover an extension in the Site Control Center to pin it, and it appears left of the copy-link button in the URL bar (or left of Site Controls with the toolbar on). Right-click a pinned icon for Unpin.
  • The folder hover preview now looks like Arc's: a neutral glass panel right of the sidebar, two-line rows with a globe, a written-out time and newest first.
  • A "New Tab Created" notice appears at the top right when a page opens a tab while the sidebar is hidden.

Known gaps:

  • Sites' own search engines (OpenSearch) are not picked up automatically.
  • No warning yet when a saved password appears in a data breach.
  • Client-side phishing detection is off (Safe Browsing is off by default).
