I’ve just pushed 1.2 to the App Store. I completely rewrote window management hoping that this would fix this issue. Release notes: > - Added support for camera snapshots. Now you can check if the cat is on the counter without actually turning your head. Efficiency! > > - Get In The Zone: Added support for Sortable Zones. > > - Some users could not get the app to launch reliably. We completely rewrote the window management system to improve startup success. > > - Added the option to show HomeBar in the dock. ---

I am sorry but the behaviour did not chance, I still do not see anything from Homebar on my screen ☹ ---

Damn, so weird. There are no crash logs, no nothing 🤔 Could you try this (if you want to, because I know I’m asking a lot)? 1. Open a Terminal (by searching for Terminal in spotlight/Raycast) 2. Type this: `open ~/Library/Containers/be.titansofindustry.homeystatusbar/Data/Library/Application\ Support/HomeBar/Logs` Is there anything there? And if so, could you email it to me? tim@broddin.be I really want to get to the bottom of this bug 😃 ---

Great app! And have paid for lifetime - of course 🙂 But what is this? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/8/a84303e2a38a9aad5b47f9e0e8f4d8e71a026335.png) ---

Hmmm, don’t know for sure. Did you grant all scopes to the local API key? Error logging will receive a revamp in 1.5 to make it a lot clearer what goes wrong if something goes wrong. ---
