Summary
Sidekick 0.6.6 fixes a blank window on startup that affected 0.6.4 and 0.6.5. If you are on either of those versions, please update.
Fixes
- Sidekick opens properly again — 0.6.4 and 0.6.5 could start with an empty black window and no controls, leaving the app unusable. Sidekick now opens to its normal interface.
macOS Installation (Signed + Notarized)
Download the Apple Silicon .zip or .dmg file, drag Sidekick.app into Applications, then launch it normally. macOS 13 Ventura or newer on Apple Silicon (M1 or newer) is required. Intel Macs are not supported.
On first launch, macOS should recognize the app as signed and notarized. You should only need to approve the usual Microphone and Screen Recording permission prompts inside System Settings.
⚠️ Windows Installation (Unsigned x64 Build)
When running the installer on Windows, you might see a "Windows protected your PC" warning from Microsoft Defender SmartScreen saying it prevented an unrecognized app from starting.
Since this is an unsigned build, this is expected. You can safely ignore it by clicking More info and then Run anyway.
The public artifact release workflow currently publishes x64 installer and portable artifacts only.
