See the changelog for what changed in this release.

Version 1.1.9

Wed, 08 Jul 2026 17:14:50 +0000

Fixes the Settings window slipping behind other apps when you uncheck “Show Mister Plimsoll in Dock”. See the changelog.

Version 1.1.8

Thu, 02 Jul 2026 23:14:00 +0000

Over-threshold volumes now show a Time Machine footprint estimate with a link to Apple’s storage guide, and the menu-bar dropdown uses an opaque material so text reads cleanly against warm desktop wallpapers. See the changelog.

Version 1.1.7

Tue, 23 Jun 2026 19:48:50 +0000

Drag to reorder volumes in Settings > Volumes; the menu-bar dropdown follows the same order. See the changelog.

Version 1.1.6

Fri, 05 Jun 2026 19:57:00 +0000

Per-volume alert cadences, longer global cadences (up to 24 hours), and a custom-value Other… option. See the changelog.

Version 1.1.5

Thu, 28 May 2026 21:52:26 +0000

Fixes the test-email failure (500 5.5.2 bad chars in command) at Comcast and other SMTP servers that strictly validate the EHLO greeting. See the changelog.

Version 1.1.4

Thu, 28 May 2026 20:15:00 +0000

Fixes the test-email error report under Notifications cropping the last character of every line returned by the mail server, plus a hint under the SMTP username field when the entered value lacks an “@”. See the changelog.

Version 1.1.3

Tue, 26 May 2026 21:47:31 +0000

New welcome screen on first launch, Dock icon by default for new installs, and a fix for a launch-time hang under the macOS App Sandbox when the helpers that detect Time Machine and disk-image mount points stalled on a cold-state machine. See the changelog.

Version 1.1.2

Sun, 24 May 2026 19:51:34 +0000

Fixes a small dark sliver that could appear at screen center while Mister Plimsoll was running, caused by the on-screen alert window initializing at the wrong size. See the changelog.

Version 1.1.1

Fri, 22 May 2026 17:06:14 +0000

Fixes the on-screen alert window so long capacity readouts no longer truncate mid-number, corrects the alignment of the explanatory text in Notifications settings across macOS versions, and prefixes critical-threshold notifications with “Critical:” in Notification Center. See the changelog.

Version 1.1.0

Sat, 16 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Adds three new notification channels: macOS Notification Center (Time Sensitive level), webhooks (Slack, Discord, generic JSON for Zapier/IFTTT/Home Assistant), and a rewritten native-Swift SMTP path. Plus a fix for the notification-center icon. See the changelog.

Version 1.0.1

Mon, 11 May 2026 12:00:00 +0000

Minor typographical fixes.

Version 1.0

Sun, 10 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Mister Plimsoll 1.0 is the first production release. No bugs reported, all intended features in place. See the changelog.

Version 0.7.0

Thu, 07 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Treat-purgeable-as-free toggle, critical override that bypasses the daily cap when a volume is past a percentage you set, an explanatory sentence in the email body, and an Authorize Messages access button so the macOS Automation prompt doesn’t ambush your first iMessage alert. See the changelog.

Version 0.6.15

Thu, 07 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Pushover support: get a push notification on your iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Android when a drive crosses its threshold. Also fixes a menu-bar dropdown that wasn’t closing when you opened Settings. See the changelog.

Version 0.6.14

Tue, 06 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Install DMG fixes: retina background and aligned arrow. App is otherwise the same as 0.6.13.

Version 0.6.13

Tue, 06 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Volumes tab now explains what purgeable space actually is. Fixed: the Refresh button no longer shifts position as you change the check interval. See the changelog.

Version 0.6.12

Fri, 01 May 2026 18:30:00 +0000

The check-interval stepper now snaps between sensible values (1, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60) instead of stepping minute-by-minute. See the changelog.

Version 0.6.11

Fri, 01 May 2026 17:45:00 +0000

Settings window is now user-resizable in height — drag the bottom edge to grow it taller for monitoring lots of volumes. Width stays fixed. See the changelog.

Version 0.6.10

Fri, 01 May 2026 17:15:05 +0000

About panel reorganized with a Check for Updates link, tighter layout, and a privacy-policy link. Volumes tab puts Refresh next to the check-interval stepper. “Apple ID” updated to “Apple Account” throughout. See the changelog.

Version 0.6.9

Fri, 01 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Critical fix: every release since 0.6.0 was shipping without the AppleEvents entitlement — hardened runtime silently blocked Messages.app integration before macOS could prompt for Automation permission. 0.6.9 is the first build where the test-send and "Reset and try again" actually work. See the changelog.
