FModel for macOS now tells you when there's a new version, like FModel does.

What's new

  • Update check: at launch the app looks for a newer release of this port on GitHub. When there is one, an Update Available button shows up in the status bar and the Releases window opens.
  • Help › Releases is now that window, instead of a link: Download Latest Release, Remind Me (now, in 3 days, next week, next month or never) and every release with its notes.
  • Release notes after an update: the first launch of a new version opens its notes in a tab.

The check only reads GitHub's public list of releases; being offline is fine (it's just logged), and Remind Me › Never turns it off.

Updating from 0.1.0

0.1.0 doesn't have the update check, so this one update is manual:

  1. Quit FModel.
  2. Download FModel-v0.2.0-macos-arm64.zip below, unzip it and replace FModel.app in Applications.
  3. As with any new download, macOS asks once more: open FModel, then System Settings › Privacy & Security › Open Anyway (see the README).

Your profiles, settings and favorites are kept. From now on the app lets you know about new versions.

New install

Download FModel-v0.2.0-macos-arm64.zip below, unzip it, move FModel.app to Applications and follow Opening it the first time. Requires a Mac with Apple Silicon and macOS 14 Sonoma or later.

Full changes: v0.1.0...v0.2.0
