v0.6.0 adds VM management, Japanese and Korean input, a better migration system, and fixes. ⛩️

Features

  • Manage VMs: move, create and boot from different disks, plus move to Trash. Reset still erases permanently (#350)
  • JIS and Japanese support with Mozc. New VMs on Japanese Macs default to Japanese (#341, #354)
  • Korean support. New VMs on Korean Macs default to Korean (#320)
  • Show only new, revised, or unfinished VM migrations in the update review. Existing VMs without revision history receive a one-time check in a disposable overlay; later launches use per-VM revision history without repeating completed repairs (#355)
  • Use the Omarchy login-screen theme in new factory images (#337)
  • Put the quickstart near the top of the README (#344)

Fixes

  • Avoid partial package upgrades during Japanese setup: use existing repository data without refreshing it or running a system upgrade. If installed packages need updating first, keep setup pending and explain how to run omarchy update inside the VM, shut down, reopen the app, and retry Update and Launch. Failed downloads and deferred setup remain retryable; guest language, kernel, and saved boot files are retained (setup and recovery)
  • Keep the shell bar, Omarchy menu, and Super+K themed after omarchy-update brings Qt 6.12, instead of losing colors or opening a black screen. New VMs include the fix, and Update and Launch repairs existing VMs while preserving edited shell files (#347)
  • Fix microphone switching in localized guest sessions (#331)
  • Keep the guest audio bridge running when pactl times out, with bounded retries and systemd restart recovery (#342)
  • Prevent reboots in small VM windows from starting with a display too small for setup by advertising at least 800×600 to the guest (#325)
  • Remove stale Mac battery reporting when the host battery bridge disconnects (#339)
  • Fix Ghostty crashes when fonts are installed or the font cache is rebuilt by using the guest's system Fontconfig. Apply the VM update and reinstall Ghostty through the Terminal menu to rebuild an existing installation (#334)
  • Handle the default VM path and native folder-picker metadata correctly during VM selection and relocation (#350)
  • Avoid intermittent startup failures caused by the runtime capability probe (#345)
  • Seed About and screensaver branding the way upstream Omarchy does, so new VMs show the icon in About and the wordmark in the screensaver (#348)
  • Verify the packaged app version matches its release tag (#330)
  • Keep the installer filename stable as TryOmarchy.dmg for older update checkers and existing download links

Dev

  • Refresh the ARM64 package lock and pinned build inputs for the current factory, including the Japanese input stack and validated Hyprland build (#341, #350, #355)

New Contributors 🎉


New language defaults, Korean input setup, the login-screen theme, and About/screensaver branding require a new or reset VM. See Japanese input setup and recovery for preserved personal settings or deferred installation.

Compatible with Apple Silicon Macs running macOS 15 or newer.
