This release fixes AirPods not being detected on some systems (#8).
Fixed
- "Please enable Bluetooth in your system settings" while Bluetooth was on. The bluetooth radio was looked up once at startup through an API that is unreliable for desktop apps, and a single failed lookup left the app reporting the adapter as off for the rest of the session. winpods now falls back to enumerating the radios directly, requests radio access, and keeps looking for the adapter in the background, so it recovers on its own when the bluetooth stack is not ready yet at startup.
- Newer models were not recognized and showed up as "Unknown" with the wrong image: AirPods 4, AirPods 4 (ANC), AirPods Pro 3, AirPods Max (USB-C), Powerbeats Pro, Powerbeats Pro 2, Beats Studio Buds, Beats Studio Buds + and Beats Solo Buds are now detected. Beats models still use placeholder images for now.
- The dashboard and the widget could stay stuck on "Disconnected" or "No Device Selected" when a window finished loading before the app had finished starting up. Both now refresh whenever they are brought to the front.
- Settings could silently stop working if the app was still starting up when the window loaded.
- The dashboard window now comes to the front when it is opened from the tray menu.
Added
- Logs are written to
%LOCALAPPDATA%\com.winpods.app\winpods.log, so problems like the one above can actually be diagnosed from a bug report.
