switch2mac 0.3.0

What's New, update tags in the Library and a longer history in the switch2mac app. If you have 0.2.x or older, the app offers this update itself.

New

• What's New tab. switch2mac's news first (the newest five; Show all for the rest), then new games you can build, every build update day by day, and nxnative's latest changes with the games each one names. A dot on the tab means something arrived since you last looked.
• Update available, in the Library. When a newer build of one of your games is out with changes you would notice, its banner says so. Click it to see what changed since your build, and Rebuild. Your saves are kept.
• Performance keeps your last 20 runs as a history: the newest in full, the others one line each, coloured by frame rate. Click one for its numbers and Share.
• + Build game replaces the Builds tab. It opens the build page, and while a game builds it says so; click it for the progress and log.

Opening it the first time

The app is not signed with a paid Apple Developer ID. The first time, macOS says it cannot verify it: click Done, open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down and click Open Anyway. You only do this once.

You need a Mac with Apple silicon and macOS 26 or later, Xcode with its Metal Toolchain (Xcode 27 for games built with nxnative's newest code), and the .NET 10 SDK; the app tells you what is missing.
