Relay v0.1.0 · Preview 2
Pre-release
Pre-release
Second preview release (pre-release) of Relay — a native macOS global app switcher with scene-based Profiles of global hotkeys, living in the menu bar. Local / self-use; not on the Mac App Store.
🆕 What's new in Preview 2
- Customizable menu-bar icon — in Settings → Personalization, pick the menu-bar glyph from SF Symbol presets (
command,bolt,bolt.fill,righttriangle.split.diagonal) or type any SF Symbol name. Names are validated, so an invalid entry is ignored and the icon never goes blank. Localized (English / 简体中文 / 繁體中文).
Everything from Preview 1 is included — Profiles, global hotkeys (no Accessibility needed), state-aware activation behaviors, Return to Previous, menu-bar agent + management window, optional Dock icon, launch-at-login, interface language, optional Accessibility-based Minimize, local-first (no network / no telemetry).
