GPBar v0.3.2 for Apple Silicon and macOS 26 or newer.
Download the DMG and drag GPBar to Applications, or open the PKG installer.
Fixed
- Open external sign-in through normal browser URL handling instead of a separate private authentication window.
- Reuse existing browser windows for sign-in tabs where browser settings and profiles allow it.
- Ignore late browser-launch and callback-handler results after an attempt is cancelled, replaced, or submitted.
Browser behavior and limits
Default browser now uses normal browser cookies and requires GPBar to handle sign-in links, like Choose browser.
GPBar asks before changing another app's callback association. Close sign-in tabs manually after completion or cancellation.
Close old sign-in tabs before retrying; native callbacks have no GPBar attempt identifier.
Tab placement was checked live in Brave Origin and Google Chrome on macOS 27.0.1.
A user-approved Microsoft Authenticator login returned automatically to GPBar. Safari and Firefox remain untested.
Browser settings and profiles control final placement. The existing authentication limits still apply.
Upgrade notes
Disable macOS login SSO for every enrolled user before updating or removing the helper, if enabled.
Before reinstalling, disconnect, remove the helper in Settings, and quit GPBar.
