Keypause 1.0.4

• The on-screen copy reads like a person talking, no more stiff full stops
• Text on the sunrise sky switches colour cleanly instead of fading through grey, where it used to disappear for a moment
• Sturdier notch detection, so the island layout is chosen reliably
• Demo in the README is now a screenshot plus a 60 fps video

Install with Homebrew: brew install --cask destucr/tap/keypause
Not notarized (no paid Apple developer account): right-click, then Open, the first time.

Keypause 1.0.3

• New keypause command for Terminal: keypause start, keypause start 90, keypause stop, keypause check. Homebrew puts it on your PATH automatically.
• New demo in the README: full colour, with captions that show what the app does
• Everything from 1.0.2: Kip the mascot, the night-to-sunrise scene, the new first-run window, Check for Updates, and permission that survives updates

Install with Homebrew: brew install --cask destucr/tap/keypause
Not notarized (no paid Apple developer account): right-click, then Open, the first time.

Keypause 1.0.2

• Meet Kip: a tiny keycap mascot who naps while your keys are locked, and a night-to-sunrise scene that shows the time passing
• New first-run window with live permission status and a one-click reset if macOS ignores a switch that is already on
• macOS no longer asks for permission again after updates (the app is now signed with a stable identity)
• Start from anywhere with the hotkey Control-Option-Command-K, or from Terminal with keypause://start
• Check for Updates in the menu
• Fixes: no more stacked permission prompts; the permission check no longer swallows keystrokes; the HUD can no longer claim the keyboard is locked when macOS turned the lock off

Install with Homebrew: brew install --cask destucr/tap/keypause
Not notarized (no paid Apple developer account): right-click, then Open, the first time.

• Custom keycap menu bar icon (outlined idle, solid while locked)
• Welcome window when you open the app (Spotlight/Finder), with Accessibility setup help; stays quiet when launched at login
