MeterUsage 0.3.0-beta.16, build 86 is the first release with both macOS and Windows builds, made from the same commit (73ce30b).

  • macOS (Apple silicon, macOS 13 or later): MeterUsage-0.3.0-beta.16-mac-arm64.zip, Developer ID signed, notarized and stapled.
  • Windows (10/11, x64), unsigned: MeterUsage-0.3.0-beta.16-win-x64.exe (per-user installer; supports in-app updates) or MeterUsage-0.3.0-beta.16-win-x64.zip (portable; cannot update itself).
  • SHA256SUMS lists all three files.

Windows users get the interface styles from macOS beta.15 for the first time, plus the fixes below.

Fixes for the interface styles in beta.15 (#103)

  • The Ledger, Blueprint and Orbit side-notch cards no longer let the desktop show through, which made their text hard to read on a light desktop.
  • Settings opens wider, and the Style picker fits on two rows.
  • Bar charts in Ledger, Orbit, Departures and Arcade render correctly again, and a few days of history no longer show as big blocks.
  • Short plan badges no longer break mid-word.

The README now shows every style.

If Check for updates is on, beta 5 and later offer this update within an hour. With Install updates automatically on (beta 11 and later), it installs by itself while you aren't using MeterUsage. Otherwise, download the ZIP, verify it against SHA256SUMS, quit MeterUsage, and replace the app, keeping a copy of the existing app and its data.

Windows is unsigned, so SmartScreen will warn. When you run the installer, Windows shows "Windows protected your PC". Choose More info → Run anyway only if the file's SHA-256 matches SHA256SUMS. Check it with Get-FileHash -Algorithm SHA256 <file> in PowerShell. In-app updates from Windows beta.13 check the GitHub-reported SHA-256 and the installer's structure. There is no signature to check, so you are trusting GitHub and this repository's release permissions (ADR 0039).

The Windows build passed the Windows release workflow on windows-latest: typecheck, the Windows test subset, packaging, smoke tests, and a silent install, update relaunch and uninstall. There is no Windows test PC, so real desktop connections, upgrades, SmartScreen and display layouts are unverified (ADR 0038).

This remains a beta. Native side-notch captures for the styles are still pending (ADR 0042).
