Version

Description

1.4.3

Aug 19, 2026

iCloud Drive imports, faster startup, large-collection fixes

Our first update in a while! We've been busy creating our second app, Vibseek Studio, a MusicMapper sibling for music producers. In the meantime, we've been getting lots of feedback from you all, which we're addressing with this update. Enjoy!

  • Import music from iCloud Drive or another cloud service, even when the files haven't been downloaded to your Mac yet
  • Cloud files download on demand, with a "Downloading from Cloud" indicator in the player
  • Interrupted cloud downloads resume when you reopen the app
  • One-time repair for tracks whose import got stuck
  • Add multiple selected tracks to a playlist at once with Enter
  • Importing a folder shows scanning progress before tracks start processing
  • The map remembers and restores its layout after a restart
  • "Added" times show your local time zone instead of UTC

Collections

  • Long collection names used to cause trouble with track import
  • Deleting or renaming a collection no longer interrupts another collection's import

Stability

  • Long sessions no longer slow down from accumulated artwork and audio memory
  • Rapid collection switching no longer crashes or loses state

Startup

  • Files on iCloud Drive or slow external drives no longer hold up startup
  • Switching collections is no longer held up by slow or cloud drives
  • Unreadable files were retried on every launch instead of being skipped
  • Cloud files that haven't downloaded yet stay in the queue instead of being skipped permanently

Tracks

  • Deleting one copy of a duplicated track keeps it in your playlists
  • Retry All froze the app on a large backlog
  • A track that failed to load stayed broken until you restarted the app

1.3.1

Apr 2, 2026

Import resilience and ChromaDB stability

Files over 30 minutes (audiobooks, podcasts) are automatically skipped during import

1.2.22

Mar 31, 2026

macOS 14 (Sonoma) compatibility fix

Debug menu items (Show Debug Info, Show Edges) now appear in production builds when debug mode is enabled in settings

1.2.21

Mar 30, 2026

Crash report dialog persistence fix

Crash report dialog kept reappearing on every launch if you clicked Close instead of Send

1.2.20

Mar 30, 2026

Crash report dialog

Crash report dialog — when a service fails to start, the app collects system diagnostics (code signing, binary analysis, dependency info) and shows them in a dialog where you can optionally send the report

1.2.19

Mar 26, 2026

Track size fix and auto-rotation off

Auto-rotation disabled by default — the map no longer automatically rotates to align with estimated symmetry axes, which was causing issues with layout stability

1.2.18

Mar 26, 2026

Check for updates and map refresh fix

"Check for Updates..." in the app menu — shows a status bar while checking, then a dialog with the result

1.2.17

Mar 26, 2026

GPU map layout by default

Map layout now uses GPU acceleration by default — production builds previously defaulted to CPU, resulting in different map arrangements than intended

1.2.16

Mar 26, 2026

File playback fallback and dead path cleanup

For tracks with multiple file paths, the app checks which files actually exist and plays the first available one — unavailable paths appear with strikethrough styling, and clicking one lets you remove the dead path or delete the track entirely

1.2.15

Mar 25, 2026

Keyboard shortcuts dialog and feedback form

Press `?` or click the icon in the bottom-right to see all keyboard shortcuts, grouped by category — focus-active and add-to-playlist shortcuts are highlighted as the most useful to learn

1.2.14

Mar 25, 2026

Automatic updates

The app now checks for updates on startup and every 4 hours, downloads in the background, and shows a notification when a new version is ready to install

1.2.13

Mar 24, 2026

Map position reset and audio analysis fixes

Tracks on the map reverted to unprocessed positions when toggling source filters after switching libraries

1.2.12

Mar 23, 2026

Import progress bar fixes

Import progress bar got stuck partway through because it counted changelog entries instead of actual job statuses

1.2.11

Mar 22, 2026

Usage analytics consent and single-instance lock

Opt-in usage analytics with GDPR-compliant consent — first-launch dialog with clear privacy disclosure (what's tracked vs what stays private), EU-hosted, no tracking before consent

1.2.10

Mar 22, 2026

Dialog button sizing fix

Dialog buttons were oversized and wrapping to two lines in some dialogs

1.2.9

Mar 21, 2026

Selection highlighting and zoom-to-fit

Selected tracks in the track list highlight on the map — bigger dots with the rest dimmed

1.2.7

Mar 21, 2026

Settings dialog and shared dialog design

Settings dialog (Cmd+,) with Rekordbox export path configuration

1.2.6
