What's Changed

Hey guys!

Thanks for waiting. We've heard a ton of your feedback on Harper Desktop, and I'm proud to say that we've addressed a LOT of it. There are some big changes, so pay attention.

First off, we swapped out the update certificate for the binary. That means that auto-update will NOT upgrade you to the latest version. To update, uninstall Harper Desktop from your system and download the .dmg in this release below, then install it.

If you've previously installed Harper Desktop, you'll need to click on the Harper icon in your menu bar (at the top of the screen) and follow the setup instructions one more time. If you've previously given Harper Desktop permission to access the accessibility system, you should remove it from the list (with the - button`) and add it back.

This is because we've finally obtained a real certificate from Apple, so the previous entry in the permission list no longer points to the correct version of Harper.

I really appreciate your understanding with this. We're working out the kinks slowly but surely.
