Release list
GlanceDock 0.27.1 — Public beta
GlanceDock's first public Windows beta: desktop widgets on your wallpaper, with 72 widget types and up to three active widget instances free across all monitors.
Download and activate
Download GlanceDock_0.27.1_x64-setup.exe below. Requires Windows 10/11 x64 and WebView2 (the installer can install the runtime if needed).
Already have a complimentary key? Open Settings → About → License, paste the complete GDK1-… key, and click Activate. License verification is offline; a valid key unlocks unlimited widget instances. Removing a key pauses saved extras without deleting their layout or data.
Included in this beta
- All 72 widget types, multi-monitor layouts, privacy mode, and portable layout backups that exclude credentials.
- Completed Colour Picker library: save swatches, copy values, remove saved colours, and switch between the picker and library. Hidden controls no longer receive keyboard or desktop input; copy feedback and timer cleanup are fixed.
- The enabled three-widget free tier and support for production version-1 license keys issued through the website.
Known beta limitations
- On a fresh setup, choose Skip setup and add widgets individually. Starter templates currently append to the default clock and can exceed the free three-widget limit.
- This beta has no Windows Authenticode publisher certificate, so SmartScreen may warn. The separate updater signature is verified, but it does not establish Windows publisher reputation.
- The installed app shares its settings with a development build. Quit any running GlanceDock instance before installing. Use a separate Windows account for fresh-install testing rather than deleting an existing layout.
Verification and support
Local release checks passed: 1,154 Rust tests, 2,666 frontend tests, lint/type checks, and the Windows build. The updater signature was cryptographically verified against the public key embedded in the app.
