v3.1.0

Added

  • App Sandbox — macshot is now fully sandboxed with minimal entitlements (network client, user-selected files, bookmarks). Improved security posture.
  • macOS 12.3+ support — minimum deployment target lowered from macOS 14.0 to macOS 12.3 (Monterey). Features unavailable on older versions gracefully degrade:
    • Background removal requires macOS 14+
    • Launch at login requires macOS 13+
    • Mesh gradients require macOS 15+
    • System audio recording requires macOS 13+
  • Google AI Search in OCR — new button in OCR results window to search extracted text directly in Google AI mode.
  • Error toast improvements — upload error messages now word-wrap instead of truncating, with expanded toast height.
  • Video editor error colors — errors now display in red instead of green.

Changed

  • Google Drive OAuth — replaced loopback HTTP server with ASWebAuthenticationSession and a new iOS-type OAuth client. More secure, sandbox-compatible, no local server socket.
  • Screen capture engine — replaced SCScreenshotManager (macOS 14+) with SCStream-based single-frame capture compatible with macOS 12.3+.
  • Modernized image rendering — replaced all deprecated lockFocus()/unlockFocus() calls (~32 occurrences) with NSImage(size:flipped:drawingHandler:).
  • Recording output — recordings now save to temp directory; final export via video editor Save button.
  • Save directory — now uses security-scoped bookmarks for sandbox compatibility. Save directory preference persists across launches.

Fixed

  • Video recording in sandbox — recordings were failing because security-scoped access was released before the video editor could open the file.
  • GIFEncoder thread safety — added locking to prevent data races on frame counters.
  • Force unwrap crashes — replaced NSScreen.main! with safe fallbacks.

Breaking Changes

  • Google Drive: You will need to re-sign in to Google Drive after updating. The OAuth client has changed.
  • Screenshot history: Local screenshot history will be cleared on first launch due to sandbox container migration. New screenshots will be saved normally.
  • Save directory: You may need to re-select your custom save directory in Preferences after updating.
