Pharos v1.3.2

Fixed

• A shortcut recorded while a Korean input source was on showed a Korean letter instead of the key.
• A shortcut using F1 through F20 showed a blank key.
• Reset to Default left the shortcut button showing the previous shortcut.
• Closing Settings or switching apps while recording the lock shortcut left it off until Settings was opened again.

Pharos v1.3.1

Changed

• Opening Pharos again while it's running, from Spotlight or the Applications folder, brings up Settings.

Fixed

• With the menu bar icon hidden, opening Pharos when it wasn't running showed no window.

Pharos v1.3.0

Added

• Pharos is available in Korean. The menu, Settings, and welcome window follow the macOS language.
• Settings shows a warning when another app is already using the lock shortcut.

Changed

• Settings uses the system's grouped style, with section headers and rounded boxes like Xcode's settings.

Fixed

• The locked screen could stop responding to clicks and keys, leaving no way to unlock it.
• Pharos could be quit from the keyboard while the screen was locked, uncovering the screen.
• Keys typed while the unlock dialog was opening could reach the app behind the locked screen.
• A display connected while unlocking was left uncovered.
• The first click on the locked screen sometimes did nothing.
• A timed keep-awake ended late if the Mac had slept in the meantime.

Pharos v1.2.5

Fixed

• The Settings window could no longer be dragged after a switch in it was flipped.

Pharos v1.2.4

Fixed

• The app icon's background looked flat in the Dock and Finder. It now shows its gradient.

Pharos v1.2.3

Fixed

• Closing Settings or the welcome window now returns you to the app you were using, so other apps' shortcuts keep working right away.

Pharos v1.2.2

Fixed

• Fixed steady processor use that began once Settings had been opened and went on after the window was closed.

Pharos v1.2.1

Fixed

• Unlocking could leave macOS's secure-input mode stuck with loginwindow, silently starving every key-listening app on the Mac (brightness keys, input-source switchers) until the screen was locked and unlocked again — the authentication context is now torn down explicitly, and if macOS still leaves the mode stuck, Pharos detects it and explains the gesture that clears it.
• After unlocking, the lock shortcut (⇧⌘L by default) needed two presses to lock again — the lock's input shield was swallowing the shortcut's own release events, so the system believed it was still held down.

Pharos v1.2.0

Added

• Locked Awake: cover every display in black and swallow input while background work keeps running — for stepping away; unlock with Touch ID or your account password after Return, Esc, or a click.
• A global shortcut, ⇧⌘L by default, locks from anywhere; change it in the new Shortcuts pane in Settings.
• The Accessibility permission the lock needs (to swallow shortcuts like ⌘Tab) is requested only the first time you lock — keeping the Mac awake still uses no permissions at all.

Pharos v1.1.2

Added

• Spotlight now finds the app by its Korean name and by what it does — 파로스, 잠자기 방지, and keep awake all match.
