Patter v0.6.0
Patter 0.6.0
New in 0.6.0
- Adjust the interface from 75% to 200% with ⌘+ / ⌘− / ⌘0, the View menu, or Settings → Appearance → Zoom. Patter remembers the level on each Mac.
- Get meeting reminders while Patter is running, including in the background. Calendar events refresh every minute; reminders are checked every ten seconds.
- Configure the lead time, calendars, sound and meeting-title visibility in Settings → Calendar. Reminders are off by default. Google calendars work through your Mac's Calendar accounts.
- Open meeting notes or choose Record… from a reminder. Recording requires confirmation in Patter and reuses the meeting's existing conversation when available.
- All-day, cancelled and declined meetings are skipped. Delivered occurrences are remembered across restarts to avoid repeated reminders.
Set up reminders
Connect your calendar in Patter Settings, enable Meeting reminders, allow macOS notifications, choose your options and Save. Use Test notification to check delivery without accessing a calendar or automatically recording audio. macOS notification permission must be granted on each Mac; Focus and notification settings can suppress banners or sound.
Keep Patter running. Reminders do not run after quitting or while your Mac sleeps. After waking, upcoming meetings and meetings that started less than a minute ago can still produce a reminder.
Updating
Use Settings → Updates → Install and restart, or download the DMG below. Conversations, recordings, preferences and history are retained. Reminder settings are included in library backups; zoom is saved separately on each Mac. As with previous ad-hoc-signed updates, Google Drive may need reconnecting with your original Google Desktop OAuth setup JSON.
Verification and limits
Nine frontend tests and 47 Rust tests passed locally, together with the production frontend build. Native checks covered zoom shortcuts, notification permission and submission, the synthetic reminder card, recording confirmation and opening meeting notes. The packaged QA app passed its signature check. Release CI tests and builds the app, verifies the updater signature, and checks uploaded artifact checksums before publication.
Real calendar-triggered delivery and clicking the macOS notification banner's Record action have not been verified end to end. No real meeting audio was recorded during these checks. Patter remains a personal preview for Apple Silicon Macs on macOS 15+, without Apple notarization.
Personal preview for Apple Silicon Macs on macOS 15+. No Apple notarization. See the release page for installation instructions and verification limits.
Download the DMG, drag Patter to Applications, eject the DMG, then open Patter from Applications. This personal build is ad-hoc signed, without Apple notarization. If macOS blocks it, use the app-specific Open Anyway option in System Settings → Privacy & Security.
Updates: Settings → Updates → Install and restart. Existing 0.1.0 installations need one manual replacement. Libraries remain local to each Mac. Live capture, Calendar permissions and real model inference still need a supervised test before relying on Patter for important meetings.
