What’s new
Release notes for every Overwire desktop release, newest first.
v1.0.2
July 11, 2026 · macOS, Windows
Help and support, built into the app.
Added
- Help menu in the top bar and the system menu bar: documentation, keyboard shortcuts, issue reporting, email support, and diagnostic-bundle export
- Public issue tracker for bug reports and feature requests, linked from the app, the docs, and the site footer
- Upgrade to Pro from Settings, with a clearer license panel
Improved
- Settings and Runner pages scroll from anywhere in the window, not just the centered column
Fixed
- macOS: clicking the dock icon after closing the window reopens a working window instead of nothing
- Cancelling a run also stops a Docker action's pre and post containers, so a blocking pre-entrypoint can no longer hang the run or leave a container behind
v1.0.1
July 9, 2026 · macOS, Windows
Overwire lands on Windows, and first launch gets friendlier with a built-in demo.
Added
- Windows app: a signed installer for 64-bit Windows, with the same workbench, licensing, and auto-updates as macOS
- Built-in demo: open a sample workspace with ready-to-run workflows straight from the start screen — no setup or Docker needed
- Demo workspaces are view-and-execute: run workflows and flip step modes freely while the sample files stay pristine
- Exit the demo from the status bar; removing a workspace's last repository now closes it back to the start screen
Improved
- First launch lands directly on the start screen, which explains what to open and that workflow files are never modified
- Opening a single repository sets it up automatically — the manual initialize step is gone
- Crash-reporting consent waits until after you open something
Fixed
- Reopening a workspace whose repository list had been emptied no longer dead-ends on the setup screen
v1.0.0
July 3, 2026 · macOS
First stable release.
Added
- Mocked steps narrate their contract match, validated inputs, outputs, and declared duration in the step log
Improved
- Lifetime licenses include every update; the update window and renewal are gone
- The update control sits beside the app version in the status bar
- The wordmark matches the brand across the app
v0.9.1
July 2, 2026 · macOS
Added
- Welcome dialog that orients first launches before setup
- Data settings: open the app's directories, clear the cache, or reset app data
Fixed
- The system keychain is only accessed when you switch secret storage
- Cmd+Q always quits cleanly, even mid-teardown
v0.9.0
July 1, 2026 · macOS
First public release.
- Workflow workbench: open a repository and run its GitHub Actions workflows locally
- Per-step modes: skip, mock, or live-execute each step in a real runner container
- Platform simulation for events, contexts, and the GitHub API
- Companion CLI, installable from npm
