@StevenACZ StevenACZ released this 02 Jul 15:44

Fixed

  • v1.0.0 crashed instantly at launch on most Macs (the app never appeared in the menu bar). The localized-resources lookup only worked on the machine the release was built on; v1.0.1 resolves resources from inside the installed app, so it launches correctly on any Apple Silicon Mac (M1, M2, M3, M4, …).

If v1.0.0 never opened for you, this release is the fix β€” just replace the app.

Install

  1. Download MacFan-v1.0.1.dmg (notarized and stapled).

  3. Drag MacFan to Applications, then authorize the helper from Settings > Safety.
