What's new in 0.1.1

  • Optional update checks. The first time you open WhoSees it asks whether you'd like it to check for updates. It's off unless you turn it on. When on, once a day it downloads one small file from whosees.app listing the newest version. Like any website visit, our server sees your internet address; nothing else is sent. A short note appears when a newer version is out. Settings → Check for updates.
  • Buy me a coffee button next to the settings gear. Every feature stays free.
  • Android: fixed connections that finish sending and then wait for a reply. Some uploads could lose their last part, and some apps never got the server's answer. WhoSees now passes everything through correctly.
  • Windows: programs that run for a split second are now named correctly in Deep mode, instead of being called "Windows service".
  • Phones: the Stop button no longer covers the list when you expand the bottom panel.
  • An Open-source licences list in Settings → About.
  • A step-by-step user guide with pictures.

Downloads

  • Windows 10/11: WhoSees-Windows-Setup.exe
  • Linux: WhoSees-Linux.AppImage (any distribution; make it executable, then open it) or whosees-fedora.x86_64.rpm for Fedora
  • Android 10+: WhoSees-Android.apk (installs over 0.1.0 and keeps your settings)

Windows will warn you when you run the installer

When you run WhoSees-Windows-Setup.exe, Windows shows a blue "Windows protected your PC" screen. That's expected. Click More info, then Run anyway, and the installer opens as normal.

Why it happens: Windows shows this for any new program that isn't code-signed yet. It doesn't mean anything is wrong with WhoSees, only that Windows hasn't seen it before.

What's being done: WhoSees has applied for free code signing from the SignPath Foundation. Once approved, the installer will be signed, and the warning fades as more people install it.

Check it yourself: the Windows installer is built automatically by GitHub from this repository (the build). To confirm your download wasn't changed, run Get-FileHash WhoSees-Windows-Setup.exe in PowerShell and compare it with SHA256SUMS.txt below.

Every feature is free. If WhoSees is useful to you, you can buy me a coffee.
