Know when an update's out, and an app that cleans up after itself.

Install

Download Relay.dmg, drag Relay into Applications, then approve it once (free open-source app, not Apple-notarized):

  • macOS 15 / 26 — open it, click Done, then System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway
  • macOS 13 / 14 — right-click Relay.app → Open → Open

Already on Relay? Just hit Settings → Download the Latest Version — and from now on you'll see an Update badge in the app whenever there's a new one.

In this release

  • "Update available" badge. Relay quietly checks for new versions and shows an Update badge in the sidebar (and in Settings) when one's out — so you never have to come check GitHub. Installing is still one click, on your terms; nothing updates on its own.
  • Cleans up after itself. Leftover temp files, old update downloads, and stale backups are tidied automatically, so updates and caches never pile up and fill your storage.
  • Durable photos & GIFs. Attachments you send are now stored permanently instead of in a temp folder the system clears, so they don't risk disappearing from older chats.
