LidTap 1.0.2: updates itself
LidTap now keeps itself up to date. About once a day it checks GitHub for a new release and asks before installing anything. You can also choose Check for Updates… in its menu at any time.
- Updates ask first. A Software Update window shows what's new, with Install Update, Remind Me Later and Skip This Version. It never pops up during Privacy Guard or calibration; the menu shows a notice instead.
- Only genuine updates install. LidTap installs an update only if it's newer and signed with LidTap's Developer ID. Your calibration, settings and Accessibility permission are kept.
- Your choice. Turn off the daily check in Settings → General. This check is the only time LidTap goes online.
Privacy Guard is more dependable (thanks to @israerendilmen):
- If LidTap quits unexpectedly while the guard is on, your microphones are unmuted the next time it starts.
- Microphones plugged in while the guard is on (AirPods, a USB headset) are muted too.
- Switching the guard off while it was turning your meeting camera off no longer leaves the camera off.
Also fixed:
- Taps aren't lost when you quit mid-calibration.
- Deleting your data while a model trains no longer brings the old model back.
- Restarting the noise recording no longer cuts it short.
- The Python prototype is safer (thanks to @israerendilmen), and its
start.shworks withoutuvinstalled (thanks to @SankalpPandey-56).
