Arson 1.2.0

Not notarized by Apple. Arson is ad-hoc signed, without an Apple Developer ID certificate. macOS may block the first launch and require your explicit approval. The DMG and update feed are authenticated separately with Arson's existing Sparkle EdDSA key; this does not replace Apple notarization.

What's new

  • Choose App Window as a menu bar icon alongside Flame and Windows.
  • A refreshed app icon and updated documentation screenshots.
  • A clearer DMG installer with large icons and an arrow to Applications.
  • Direct access to the installer without a license acceptance dialog; the license remains included inside the app bundle.
  • Warnings for presets without an effect now appear in the General section of the editor.

Installation

Requires macOS 26 or later. Universal app for Apple Silicon and Intel.

  1. Download Arson-1.2.0.dmg from this release, open it, and drag Arson to Applications.
  2. Open Arson from Applications. If macOS blocks it, and you trust this download, open System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway after the first launch attempt. Follow Apple's instructions; do not disable Gatekeeper globally.
  3. Complete the introduction and grant the requested window-control permission.

Updating

Updater-enabled versions can check this release with Arson → Check for Updates…. The original v1.0.0 preview has no updater and must be replaced manually.

macOS may require you to remove and re-add Arson under its window-control permission settings after replacing an ad-hoc-signed build. If an update or launch fails, use the manual installation steps above.

Integrity

SHA256SUMS.txt lists checksums for the DMG and appcast.xml. Sparkle verifies both update files using the public key embedded in Arson. This release does not carry an Apple notarization ticket.
